I am often asked, \u201cHow is a RoHS marking actually carried out?\u201d The quick answer: EU RoHS will, from 22nd July 2017, be visible in the CE marking and the declaration of conformity linked to it. China RoHS conformant instruments carry a green logo. Non-conformant instruments in accordance with China RoHS carry an orange logo and require a manufacturer’s declaration.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here, once more, in detail:<\/p>\n

EU RoHS marking<\/h2>\n

EU RoHS is part of the EU declaration of conformity for all products with CE marks. For the majority of WIKA products with electrical functions, the requirement in accordance with the 2011\/65\/EU DIRECTIVE of 8th June 2011 <\/a>Article 4(3) applies \u201c\u2026\u00a0to industrial monitoring and control instruments which are placed on the market from 22nd July 2017.\u201d For all products with CE marks, the corresponding EU declaration of conformity is available on the product detail pages (\u201cApprovals\u201d tab) at www.wika.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

China RoHS marking<\/h2>\n

Today, instruments which fall under China RoHS must already be marked with the corresponding China RoHS logo on the product label. With compact products, the regulation SJ\/T11364-2014<\/a> \u201cMarking for the Restricted Use of Hazardous Substances in Electronic and Electrical Products\u201d allows corresponding marking on the packaging label. For products with the \u201corange-coloured logo\u201d or RoHS marking \u201c10\u201d, the corresponding manufacturer’s declarations \u201cDeclaration of manufacturer according to China RoHS\u201d are available on the product detail pages (\u201cDocuments\u201d tab) at www.wika.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
