This revision mainly subdivides the use of hexavalent chromium and lead in some exempt materials and gives a new exemption period according to the new classification.

According to (EU)2020/360 EU ROHS Annex IV Article 37 is updated to

project   number

Exempt   items

Scope   and date

37

Application and at least one condition of the   electrical conductivity test the lead in the platinum-plated platinum   electrode used;

(A). In the laboratory application of unknown   concentration, it has a large range of measurement that covers the   conductivity range of more than one order of magnitude (such as the range of   0.1ms/m and 5ms/m);

(B). The accuracy of the sample range is +-/-1% and   the solution measurement requires high corrosion resistance electrode:

(I). Solution acidity <ph1;

(ii). Solution alkalinity>ph13;

(iii) Corrosive solutions containing halogen gas;

(C). Measurements with conductivity exceeding 100   ms/s must be carried out with portable tools.

Waived until   December 31, 2025
