9 RoHS and WEEE update from Swissbit
Dear Valued Customer,
We at Swissbit place great value on the environment and thus pay close attention to the diverse aspects of
manufacturing environmentally and health friendly products. The European Parliament and the Council of
the European Union have published two Directives defining a European standard for environmental
protection. This states that CompactFlash Cards must comply with both Directives in order for them to be
sold on the European market:
? RoHS – Restriction of Hazardous Substances
? WEEE – Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Swissbit would like to take this opportunity to inform our customers about the measures we have
implemented to adapt all our products to the European norms.
What is the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC)?
The Directive covers the following points:
?
?
?
Prevention of WEEE
Recovery, recycling and other measures leading to a minimization of wastage of electronic
and electrical equipment
Improvement in the quality of environmental performance of all operators involved in the
EEE life cycle, as well as measures to incorporate those involved at the EEE waste disposal
points
What are the key elements?
The WEEE Directive covers the following responsibilities on the part of producers:
Producers must draft a disposal or recovery scheme to dispose of EEE correctly.
Producers must be registered as producers in the country in which they distribute the goods.
They must also supply and publish information about the EEE categories.
Producers are obliged to finance the collection, treatment and disposal of WEEE.
Inclusion of WEEE logos on devices
In reference to the Directive, the WEEE logo must be printed directly on all devices that have sufficient
space. ?In exceptional cases where this is necessary because of the size of the product, the symbol of the
WEEE Directive shall be printed on the packaging, on the instructions of use and on the warranty?
(WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC)
When does the WEEE Directive take effect?
The Directive came into effect internationally on 13 August, 2005.
What is RoHS (2002/95/EC)?
The goals of the Directive are to:
?
?
Place less of a burden on human health and to protect the environment by restricting the
use of hazardous substances in new electrical and electronic devices
To support the WEEE Directive (see above)
RoHS enforces the restriction of the following 6 hazardous substances in electronic and electrical devices:
?
?
?
?
?
Lead (Pb) – no more than 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials
Mercury (Hg) – no more than 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials
Cadmium (Cd) – no more than 0.01% by weight in homogeneous materials
Chromium (Cr6+) – no more than 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials
PBB, PBDE – no more than 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials
