Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Compliance
Directive 2002/95/EC—commonly known as the European Union (EU) Restriction on
Hazardous Substances (RoHS)—sets limits on the use of certain substances found in
electrical and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of
hazardous chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the
environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive, which took effect on July 1, 2006,
refers to the following hazardous substances:
„
Lead (Pb)
„
Mercury (Hg)
„
Cadmium (Cd)
„
Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
„
Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
„
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
According to this EU Directive, all products sold in the European Union will be fully
RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” (See our Web site,
www.broadcast.harris.com/leitch , for
more information on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Spare parts supplied for the
repair and upgrade of equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation.
Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant
emblem, as shown in Figure P-1.

Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Compliance
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste from Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection, treatment, recovery, and recycling of electrical
and electronic waste products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the
responsibility for the disposal of associated hazardous waste to either the producers or users
of these products. As of August 13, 2005, producers or users will be required to recycle
electrical and electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and may not dispose of the
equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some EU member states
may have different deadlines.)
In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or electronic devices in the
EU will affix labels indicating that such products must be properly recycled. (See our Web
site,
www.broadcast.harris.com/leitch , for more information on dates and deadlines for
compliance.) Contact your local sales representative for information on returning these
products for recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a
WEEE-compliant emblem, as shown in Figure P-2.
