The RoHS directive aims to restrict certain dangerous substances commonly used in electronic
and electronic equipment. This RoHS compliant symbol indicate the component is tested for the
presence of Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Mercury (Hg), Hexavalent chromi- um (Hex-Cr),
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). For Cadmium
and Hexavalent chro- mium, there must be less than 0.01% of the substance by weight at raw
homogeneous materials level. For Lead, PBB, and PBDE, there must be no more than 0.1% of
the material, when calculated by weight at raw homogeneous materials. Any RoHS compliant
component must have 100 ppm or less of mercury and the mercury must not have been
intentionally added to the component.
CE Marking is the symbol as shown on the left. The
letters „CE“ are the abbreviation of French
phrase „Conformity European“ which literally means „European Conformity“. The term initially
used was „EC Mark“ and it was officially replaced by „CE Marking“ in the Directive 93/68/EEC in
1993. „CE Marking“ is now used in all EU official documents.
This symbol is new RED aligns the previous directive with the New Legislative Framework for
the marketing of products. The revision takes account of the need for improved market
surveillance, in particular for the traceability obligations of manufacturers, importers and
distributors. It provides improved instruments for market surveillance, such as the possibility to
require prior registration of radio equipment, within those categories affected by low levels of
compliance.
The Directive requires equipment to be constructed for efficient use of the radio spectrum, as
well as electromagnetic compatibility, to avoid interference with terrestrial and orbital
communications.
