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

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)
In accordance with this EU Directive, products sold in the European Union will be fully
RoHS-compliant and “lead-fr
ee.” Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade of
equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Equipment that
complies wi
th the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant symbol, as shown
