From July 1, 2006, the European Union RoHS
2002/95/EC Directive restricts the use of six materials in electronic
components and assemblies. Specifically, these materials are Lead (Pb),
Mercury (Hg), Cadmium (Cd), Hexavalent Chromium (Cr VI), Polybrominated
Biphenyls (PBB) and Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE). An annex to
the Directive currently allows for a limited number of exemptions in
relation to some of these materials. Concurrent
Technologies is committed to compliance with the RoHS Directive.
| Concurrent
Technologies’ products that are compliant with the Directive are
identified by three methods: |
|
a) |
|
on this web site by a green diamond
( );
and, |
|
b) |
|
a “RoHS” label ( )
on the product; and, |
|
c) |
|
the
Dispatch Note / Certificate of Conformity associated with the
shipment of the product will indicate a “Yes” under the column
headed “RoHS Compliant”. |
Certain
components used on “RoHS Compliant” products may use packaging or
solders that are allowed due to the Directive’s exemptions.
| In the case of
several older products some RoHS compliant components are not
available and so Concurrent Technologies does not classify the
products as being RoHS compliant; however these products may
still use many components which are compliant with the
Directive. These products are identified by three methods: |
|
a) |
|
on this web site by the lack of
presence of the green diamond ( );
and, |
|
b) |
|
a “Pb” label ( ) on
the product; and, |
|
c) |
|
the
Dispatch Note / Certificate of Conformity associated with the
shipment of the product will indicate a “No” under the column
headed “RoHS Compliant”. |
In all cases, in order to declare compliance
with the Directive, Concurrent Technologies has relied on data and other
information provided by its suppliers and as such makes no
representation or warranty regarding the accuracy of such information.
Concurrent Technologies' website is
continuously being updated with RoHS compliant product datasheets. Please
