Re: [PSES] Recast WEEE and RoHS Directives

2013-08-27 Thread Mike Sherman ----- Original Message -----


Perhaps  the EU is not ready to recycle under WEEE  all the products that will 
fall into RoHS Category 11, such as small gasoline/petrol engines. Category 11 
is pretty broad.

The categories of EEE are almost identical except item 11 in RoHS.  Is there a 
particular reason not to include item 11 of RoHS in WEEE? 

Thanks and regards,

Re: [PSES] Recast WEEE and RoHS Directives

2013-08-27 Thread Crane, Lauren
It is important to note that when the scope shift happens in WEEE (in 2018, I 
think), the old RoHS-like categories dies, and new ones are born. Two new 
categories come on line that are essentially large things and small things. 
I figure everything will fit in either of those two buckets, if not the more 
explicit categories.



4. Large equipment (any external dimension more than 50 cm) including, but not 
limited to:

Household appliances; IT and telecommunication equipment; consumer equipment; 
luminaires; equipment reproducing sound or images, musical equipment; 
electrical and electronic tools; toys, leisure and sports equipment; medical 
devices; monitoring and control instruments; automatic dispensers; equipment 
for the generation of electric currents. This category does not include 
equipment included in categories 1 to 3.

5. Small equipment (no external dimension more than 50 cm) including, but not 
limited to:
Household appliances; consumer equipment; luminaires; equipment reproducing 
sound or images, musical equipment; electrical and electronic tools; toys, 
leisure and sports equipment; medical devices; monitoring and control 
instruments; automatic dispensers; equipment for the generation of electric 
currents. This category does not include equipment included in categories 1 to 
3 and 6.
