The EU RoHS (Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances) Directive is an important environmental regulation that aims to restrict the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment to protect the environment and human health. For electronic devices such as routers, RoHS testing is a necessary condition for entering the EU market.
The following is the specific process for routers to undergo EU RoHS electronic hazardous testing:
1. Preliminary preparation
- Understand the standards: First, you need to understand the specific requirements and test items of the RoHS Directive in detail to ensure that you have a comprehensive understanding of the test content.
- Sample preparation: Prepare samples of routers in accordance with relevant regulations to ensure that the samples are representative and meet the test requirements.
2. Test application and information submission
- Submit application: Submit a test application to a qualified testing agency and fill in the relevant application form.
- Provide information: Provide relevant technical information of the router, including product design drawings, material composition description, production process flow, etc., so that the testing agency can conduct a preliminary evaluation.
3. Testing implementation
- Material testing: According to the requirements of the RoHS directive, the materials in the router are tested to ensure that they do not contain harmful substances exceeding the prescribed limits, such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).
- Electrical safety performance test (if applicable): Although RoHS focuses on material safety, as an electronic device, the safety of the electrical part of the router is equally important, and relevant electrical safety performance tests may be required.
4. Test report
- Issuance of report: After the testing agency completes the test, it will issue a test report to evaluate the test results.
- Report review: The applicant needs to review the test report to confirm whether the test results meet the requirements of the RoHS directive.
- Report issuance: If the test results meet the requirements of the RoHS directive, the applicant will obtain a test report. If the test results do not meet the standard requirements, the applicant needs to make corrections based on the suggestions in the test report and resubmit the sample for testing.
5. Follow-up
- Rectification and re-inspection: If the test results do not meet the standard requirements, the applicant needs to make rectifications according to the recommendations in the test report and resubmit the sample for testing.
- Certification certificate: If the test results meet the standard requirements, the applicant will obtain a RoHS certification certificate to prove that the product meets the requirements of the EU RoHS Directive.
Through the above process, the security and compliance of the router can be ensured, so that it can enter the EU market smoothly. RoHS testing is not only to comply with EU regulations, but also to enhance the market competitiveness of products and enhance consumer trust. Products that have passed RoHS certification can use the RoHS logo in the EU market, indicating that they meet environmental protection requirements, which is helpful for the company's brand building and market expansion.
