Subject: Re: [LF] Exemptions
Hi Kirby, IPC LF Listservers,
<There are people I know say that production equipment used for the
assembly of electronic equipment (circuit boards) was exempt from RoHS.
I
have not seen anything that confirms this or states this type of
equipment
is covered under RoHS. Can anyone clearify this? What about spare
parts,
it looks like to me that spare parts are exempt for equipment placed
into
the EU before 1/7/2006.>
If you go back and read this IPC Listserve and all our notes over our,
and
I do mean OUR, many years you will find you are correct. Reading the
Directives is always a good idea.
The EU Directives are first directed to the average consumer, or like-
consumer application of EEE. After all this is the predominant waste
stream
that the EU sees as damaging to the EU Environment. And the EU is
probably
correct in their assesment.
The B-to-Business consumer is a bit, or can be, a bit different.
One precaution, many are extending the EU Directives to other items that
aren't really mandated which includes BtB waste. This is a natural
process
of people over reacting.
Yours in Engineering, Dave

P.S. Say hello to WalterP from your facility.
