1.1.7 WEEE/RoHS Compliance Statement
EU Directives WEEE and RoHS
To our valued customers:
We are committed to being a good corporate citizen. As part of that commitment, we strive
to maintain environmentally conscious manufacturing operation.
The European Union (EU) has enacted two directives, the first on product recycling (
W aste
E lectrical and E lectronic E quipment, WEEE ) and the second limit the use of certain
substances ( R estriction o n the use of H azardous S ubstances, RoHS ). Over time, these
directives will be implemented in the national laws of each EU member state.
Once the final national regulations have been put into place, recycling will be offered for our
products which are within the scope of the WEEE Directive. Products falling under the
scope of the WEEE Directive available for sale after August 13, 2005 will be identified with
a “wheelie bin” symbol.
Two categories of products covered by the WEEE Directive are currently exempt from the
RoHS Directive – category 8, medical devices (with the exception of implanted or infected
products) and category 9, monitoring and control instruments. Most of our products fall into
either category 8 or 9 and are currently exempt from the RoHS Directive. We will continue
to monitor the application of the RoHS Directive to its products and will comply with any
changes as soon as they apply.
Batteries incorporated into our products are exempted from the readily removed
requirement of the directive for data integrity reasons, and are not marked with the separa-
te collection and chemical symbols because end users are not expected to dispose of the
battery separately from the product. Such batteries shall be separated from the product
during the treatment phase of the product as required under the WEEE Directive. In
particular, this exemption applies to the button or “coin” cell lithium batteries that are
supplied embedded in some of our equipment.
