Why RoHS Compliance Matters for Environmental and Human Health

What is RoHS compliant?

ROHS compliant refers to a product that complies with the European Union’s Directive 2002/95/EC, also known as the Restriction of the Use of certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS) directive. This means that the product does not contain more than the allowed amounts of certain hazardous substances, such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), as specified by the directive. A product can be considered ROHS compliant if it has been tested by a third-party testing service and a letter of compliance has been issued by an employee of the company.

What does RoHS stand for?

ROHS stands for “Restriction of Hazardous Substances” in Electrical and Electronic Equipment.

Why is RoHS compliance important?

ROHS compliance is important for several reasons. The main reason is to protect the environment and public health by reducing the release of hazardous substances during the use, treatment, and disposal of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). The use of these hazardous substances in EEE can lead to significant environmental and health problems, such as soil and water pollution, and harm to wildlife and human health.

Additionally, ROHS compliance ensures that electrical and electronic products are designed and manufactured with safer alternatives to hazardous substances. This helps to reduce the risk of harm to workers involved in the production and assembly of EEE and also reduces the risk of accidents and injuries related to the use of hazardous substances in the workplace.

Furthermore, ROHS compliance helps to improve the credibility and reputation of companies by demonstrating their commitment to environmental protection and the use of safe materials in their products. This can lead to increased customer trust, improved brand image, and increased sales.

In summary, ROHS compliance is important to protect the environment and public health, ensure the safe production and use of electrical and electronic products, and improve the reputation and credibility of companies.

What is RoHS 3?

ROHS 3 is the European Union’s Directive 2011/65/EU, also known as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS 3) directive. It is a revision of the previous ROHS Directive, ROHS 1, and ROHS 2. The main objective of ROHS 3 is to reduce the environmental and health risks associated with the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE).

ROHS 3 builds on the previous ROHS Directives by expanding the list of restricted substances, increasing the concentration limits for some of the substances, and introducing additional requirements for the collection and treatment of waste EEE. The RoHS 3 directive also includes some limited exemptions for specific types of EEE, such as medical devices, monitoring and control instruments, and certain types of automotive equipment.

ROHS 3 applies to all EEE products placed on the market in the EU, regardless of whether they are produced within the EU or imported from outside the EU. This means that any company importing goods containing electrical components into the European Union must comply with the RoHS 3 directive to ensure that their products are compliant.

What is the latest RoHS directive?

The latest version of the ROHS directive is the EU RoHS 3 Directive (Directive 2011/65/EU), which was published in 2011 and came into effect on January 1, 2013. This directive restricts the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) sold in the European Union (EU) and aims to reduce the environmental and health risks associated with the use of these substances. The RoHS 3 directive builds on the previous ROHS 1 and ROHS 2 directives by expanding the list of restricted substances, increasing the concentration limits for some of the substances, and introducing additional requirements for the collection and treatment of waste EEE.

It is important to note that there are ongoing revisions to the ROHS directive, and in 2023, several amendments are being proposed, including the addition of two new restricted substances, multiple proposed exemptions, and exemption expirations. It is essential to stay up to date with these changes and to ensure that your products comply with the latest version of the ROHS directive.

PRECISE CONTROL OF LIGHT 1

-OPTICS 10X BETTER

P73

Our precisely engineered optics of polarized light aim light directly onto the field of play, to shine uniformly and to minimize glare. Outdoor venues benefit from spill light control, no more skyglow and no more complaints from the neighbors.

COMPETITORS

1. Such light shield is useless,just misleading customers.
2. As tested it will cause 30% reduction of light output
3. While 70% still have high overflow
4. Unbearable strong glare
5. Waste energy,outdated reflective technology

PRECISE CONTROL OF LIGHT 1

-OPTICS 10X BETTER

REMOTE DRIVER

The power supply and lamp body can be mounted separately, reducing the withstand weight of the lamp pole and facilitating maintenance.

CONVENIENT INSTALLATION 3
