An exemption is just that, an exemption - for RoHS there is no need to

do anything.



For WEEE you would need to be able to provide a recycler details of any

"hazardous" items within the product, so it may be advisable to mention

any exemptions applied there.

Chris

Hi Group,



While the following RoHS exemptions below are valid, how does a

manufacture legally obtain the exemption.? Will declaring it in their

DOC suffice? Is anybody taking the exemption? Is everybody taking the

exemption :o)







*  Lead in high melting temperature type solders (i.e. tin-lead solder

alloys containing more than 85 % lead)







*  Lead in solders for servers, storage and storage array systems

(exemption granted until 2010)







*  Lead in solders for network infrastructure equipment for switching,

signaling, transmission as well as network management for

telecommunication







* Lead in electronic ceramic parts (e.g. piezoelectronic devices).







Thanks,



Jeff Collins
