Scott, Thanks for sharing this.
I wonder how their exclusion logic works....(rhetorical) If a RoHS exemptions lets you put Hg in, does this, then make you take it back out? If you are excluded from RoHS, even though your product is EEE, is it in scope of this Danish legislation. Regards, Lauren Crane KLA-Tencor From: Scott Xe [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2013 9:43 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] Denmark will be imposing a tougher mercury requirement Denmark recently announced a tougher mercury requirement 100 ppm (RoHS controls 1,000 ppm) as per following link. http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/tris/nview.cfm?p=2013_146_EN_EN Under the scope of the order, it does not extend to the goods covered by other legislation that regulates mercury content. Is RoHS Directive considered to the one regulates the mercury content on EEE? Thus the EEE does not fall into this legislation.
