What is RoHS?
RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances. RoHS, also known as Directive
2002/95/EC, originated in the European Union and restricts the use of specific hazardous
materials found in electrical and electronic products (known as EEE). All applicable products in
the EU market after July 1, 2006 must pass RoHS compliance.

What are the restricted materials mandated under RoHS?
The substances banned under RoHS are lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent
chromium (CrVI), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), and four different phthalates (DEHP, BBP, BBP, DIBP).

Why is RoHS compliance important?
The restricted materials are hazardous to the environment and pollute landfills and are
dangerous in terms of occupational exposure during manufacturing and recycling.

How are products tested for RoHS compliance?
Portable RoHS analyzers, also known as X-ray fluorescence or XRF metal analyzers, are used for
screening and verification of the restricted metals. With the advent of RoHS 3 and the four
added phthalates, different testing is needed to ascertain levels of these compounds, which are
extracted with a solvent.

Does RoHS apply to batteries?
No. All batteries, regardless of type or application, are covered under the EU Battery Directive
(2006/66/EC and Amendment 2013/56/EU). The Battery Directive restricts the use of lead to
0.004%, mercury to 0.0005%, and cadmium to 0.002% (medical devices/equipment and
alarm/emergency systems are excluded for cadmium).
NOTE: Under China RoHS, batteries ARE included/covered.
