If your industrial system can qualify as a Large-scale Stationary Industrial Tool you may have the scope exclusion you seek, as this is a parenthetical exclusion hidden in the Category 6 description of WEEE (which is currently used to set the scope for RoHS). Neither doc contains a definition of LSIT, but Commission guidance is available.
By the way, keep your eyes on the RoHS and WEEE recasts if exclusions and exemptions are important for your business. Why the summary of output from Parliament on this is saying an LSIT and Fixed Installation exclusion is provided, some of the fine point detail may remove the benefit (unless Council can get some clarifications or adjustments added) Regards, Lauren Crane Applied Materials america - europe - asia Corporate Product EHS www.amat.com lauren crane (mr.) product regulatory analyst (t) +1.512.272.6540 [email protected] - external use - Save paper and trees!
