RoHS Compliance Testing for Eco-Safety in Electronics
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance testing is a critical aspect of ensuring that electronic products meet stringent environmental regulations. The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive, adopted by the European Union, aims to reduce waste and pollution from electrical and electronic equipment by restricting certain hazardous materials in these products.
This service involves analyzing products for compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU, which bans the use of six substances: lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium (Cr VI), polybrominated biphenyls (PBBS), and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDE). Compliance testing ensures that manufacturers can market their products within the European Economic Area without facing penalties.
The process begins with thorough specimen preparation, which involves disassembly of electronic components to access potential restricted materials. Once prepared, samples are analyzed using advanced instrumentation such as Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectrometers.
Testing parameters include the identification and quantification of the six restricted substances in electronic components like printed circuit boards, cables, connectors, and other materials. Reporting is comprehensive, detailing the concentration levels of each hazardous substance found within specified limits set by RoHS 2011/65/EU. This ensures that manufacturers can take corrective actions if any non-compliance issues are detected.
