The Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive

Products from Solartron Analytical fall under Category 9 of the RoHS directive and so are outside its scope. We recognize, however, that designing products that do not use hazardous substances is of benefit not only to the environment but also to our customers and employees. We are therefore working towards producing products which are fully RoHS compliant. Initially work is focused on new products in development, but we are also taking the opportunity when updating existing instruments to use RoHS compliant components and techniques wherever possible.

Solartron Analytical instruments are used in various applications that may affect customer requirements for RoHS compliance. Normally, our customers do not require RoHS compliant products, including customers using our products for development or production of their end products, as well as customers who embed one of our instruments in an end product that is itself classified as either Category 8 or Category 9. A Solartron Analytical product will require RoHS compliance only if a customer sells an end product that falls within the RoHS directive's scope. If you are one of these customers then please contact us for further advice.
