APPENDIX D
D.6 REACH Compliance
Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006
Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH)
Michell Instruments is a manufacturer of moisture measurement and gas analysis instrumentation
and is a ‘downstream’ user of chemicals, as described by the EU Council Directive 76/769/EEC. The
products we supply are not raw chemical products (goods).
Under normal and reasonably foreseeable circumstances of application, the goods supplied to you
shall not contain or release any prohibited chemicals. No listed SVHC (Substances of Very High
Concern) appear within products manufactured by Michell Instruments. Therefore the 0.1% mass
per product, or total usage of 1 tonne/year, will never be exceeded. For these reasons we are neither
required by obligation for registration nor for the creation of material safety data sheets (MSDS) for
our products.
Our continued review of the SVHC Candidate List and latest additions is to ensure we remain
compliant.
Michell Instruments maintains a hazardous material register in which MSDS data sheets are collated,
and we will check that our suppliers will comply to REACH requirements for all materials and
substances we use in the processes of our manufacturing.
In the unlikely event that any chemicals of concern appear in our products in quantities greater than
0.1% of total mass per product we will immediately inform you by correspondence according to the
REACH Article 33 requirements. Our current appraisal is, however, that we do not expect or foresee
such an incidence.

D.7 Calibration Facilities
Michell Instruments’ calibration facilities are among the most sophisticated in the world and have
been recognized for their excellence.
Traceability to the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) UK is achieved through our UKAS Accreditation
(Number 0179). This covers dew point over the range -90 to +90°C (-130 to +194°F) and also
Relative Humidity.
Dew-point calibrations are also traceable to the National Institute for Standards & Technology (NIST)
USA over the range -75 to +20°C (-103 to +68°F).
NOTE: Standard traceable calibration certi fi cates for instruments and sensors are not
issued under our UKAS accreditation. UKAS certi fi cates are usually to special order and
are clearly identi fi ed.
