Sorry you are wrong on point 2, the spares do not have to be bought
before the deadline.
Non compliant spares can be used/sold indefinitely to support product
sold prior to July 2006.
It may also be such that non compliant sub units may be sold to upgrade,
enhance, expand the capabilities of systems sold prior to July 2006.
This is currently needing clarification. It is based on the premise that
it would avoid having to scrap a whole non compliant system.

Chris

Hi people!
Pascal and Roland:
If you carefully read the directives it can be understood that:
1) as of 1th July 2006 all that is put on the market must be RoHS
compliant.
Therefore your second question is the right one: "does this product
needs to
be re-engineered in order to be RoHS compliant for shipments on 1st
July
2006?". The answer is YES.
2) Although non compliants spare parts could be used for reparations
and/or
replacements of electric and electronic equipments placed on the market
before 1st July 2006, these spare parts must have been bought before the
deadline!

Hi all,
I addition to Roland's questions could someone clarify for me another
aspect of the "put on the market statement":
1/ Does the statement means that a product that is first launched on the
market (whatever is the definition we use for "launch") before July 2006
(let's say for July 2005 the sake of the exercise ) can still be
manufactured and delivered to EU, non RoHS compliant until the end of it
market life (ie can be 1,2....x years) ?
2/ Or does this product needs to be re-engineered in order to be RoHS
compliant for shipments on Juyy 1st 2006 ?
Regards
Pascal Clairefond
