As a kind of electronic and electrical equipment, electronic scales need to undergo RoHS testing when exported to the EU. The RoHS Directive, the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electronic and Electrical Equipment, aims to reduce hazardous substances in electronic and electrical products and protect human health and the environment. Electronic scales are within the control scope of the RoHS directive and need to ensure that they comply with the restrictions on hazardous substances in the directive.
As a kind of electronic and electrical equipment, electronic scales need to undergo RoHS certification when exported to the EU to ensure that they comply with the EU directives on restricting the use of certain hazardous substances in electronic and electrical equipment. The RoHS certification process mainly includes the following steps:
1. Preparation stage: The customer provides product pictures, bill of materials (BOM) and application form.
2. Quotation: Based on the information provided by the customer, the third-party testing agency will make a quotation.
3. Sign the agreement: After the customer confirms the quotation, the two parties sign a service agreement. The customer pays the full project fee and prepares test samples.
4. Sample testing: Customers mail samples to the laboratory for testing.
5. Test results: If the test passes, the laboratory will issue a RoHS test report; if the test fails, the sample needs to be rectified, which may involve replacing raw materials, and then test again until it is qualified.
In addition, when applying for RoHS certification, you may need to provide the following information and samples:
1. 2-3 test samples;
2. Circuit schematic diagram;
3. Product instructions or user manuals;
4. Parts list (BOM list);
5. Certification application form;
6. Provide a corresponding number of samples according to the test content.
The cost of RoHS testing will vary according to factors such as test items, product material type, quantity, etc. The specific cost needs to be evaluated and quoted by a professional organization based on product pictures or BOM sheets and testing requirements.
It is worth noting that the hazardous substances restricted by the RoHS Directive include lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers and four phthalate substances (DEHP, BBP, DBP, DIBP). These substances are used in electronic products. The content of homogeneous materials in electrical equipment must not exceed certain limits.
