Austest Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide can now perform RoHS testing of electrical components and printed circuit boards for manufacturers and exporters seeking compliance with CE marking requirements under the RoHS Directive.

The RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directive, took effect within European Union member states on the 1st of July 2006 and restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment.  The 6 substances are Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg) Cadmium (Cd), Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE).

 Austest provides a non destructive test in conformance to IEC 62321 of your product for these substances and provides a test report suitable as evidence of compliance with the above directive, in most cases for less than $1000, with multiple products attracting a hefty discount.  Contact our Sydney office for more details.   http://www.austest.com.au/contact_us.php
