Electronic product pollution control measures will be implemented from March 1




China's own RoHS regulations - "Measures for the Management of Pollution Control of Electronic Information Products" have been introduced. Compared to the EU RoHS Directive, we have seen many differences.

Coverage

After the promulgation of the "Administrative Measures", an electronic information product breakdown and its interpretation will be published. This breakdown is based on the "Electronic Information Industry Classification Catalogue" confirmed by the National Bureau of Statistics and in accordance with the requirements of the "Administrative Measures". . With this detail and interpretation, every producer in the industry can conveniently “check in” and confirm whether the products they produce belong to the category of “electronic information products”.

Target market

China's "Administrative Measures" was promulgated on February 28, 2006, and was implemented on March 1, 2007. The time limit for toxic and hazardous substances and the ban period have not yet been determined.

Limits and exemptions

There is no final conclusion, but it may be based on the following four situations:

A ?C similar raw materials

B?C metal plating

C ?C <1.2 m3 parts

D ?C specific materials or accessories

The key management catalogue for pollution control of electronic information products was initially empty. Over time, those products that are “technically mature and economically viable” that have been replaced by toxic or hazardous substances or that meet the limit standards will be placed. Into the directory, not placed in the directory means temporarily "exempted". Therefore, the Administrative Measures do not require, and do not need to set, provisions on the content of the exemption.

Key management directory

Catalogue management is a management method for controlling toxic and hazardous substances in electronic information products that is different from the EU RoHS Directive as determined by the Administrative Measures. It targets all electronic information products that are now known to contain six toxic and hazardous substances. When it is confirmed that one of the products has achieved replacement of the product or substitution of toxic or hazardous materials, or it has been confirmed that the replacement is difficult to achieve, it can meet the limit. Standards, for the relevant industries have achieved "technical maturity, economically viable", then such products will be placed in the "Catalog", the implementation of 3C certification "catalog" formation process will be gradual, the formation of catalogue The process will be in accordance with certain procedures, such as soliciting relevant company opinions, expert evaluations, etc.

Identification

The labeling regulations apply to electronic information products sold in China and must be marked with toxic and hazardous substances or elements, environmental protection use period, availability of recycling, origin information and the name of the packaging materials.

The producer or importer of electronic information products shall identify the name and content of the main components containing toxic and hazardous substances in the product specification in the style shown in Article 6.2.1 of this standard. Among them, the first row of Table 2 is the header, the first column is the part name; the other columns of Table 2 are the content of toxic and hazardous substances in the component. If a toxic or hazardous substance or element is not contained in the part, the corresponding content of the toxic or hazardous substance or element is marked as “e” and the meaning of “e” should be indicated under the form; if a toxic or hazardous substance or The element is contained in the component, and if the toxic or hazardous substance or element belongs to the EIP-D class in the SJ/Txxx-200x limited standard in the component, the content corresponding to the toxic or hazardous substance or element is marked as “D”, and The meaning of “D” should be indicated under the form; for toxic and hazardous substances or elements in this part, EIP-A, EIP-B, EIP-C lead, mercury, and six in the SJ/Txxx-200x limited standard The content of valence chromium, polybrominated biphenyl, polybrominated diphenyl ether (excluding decabromodiphenyl ether) exceeding 0.1wt%, marked as “> 0.1wt%”, and the content of cadmium exceeding 0.01wt% is marked as “> 0.01wt” %". Identifies the characters, numbers and letters used, and the font height must not be less than 1.8 mm.

Electronic information product pollution control labeling requirements

The scope of control of the Marking Standard

Q: It takes time to accurately identify the product. The implementation of the standard from the date of publication makes it difficult for the enterprise to operate. Can it leave a one-year transition period for the enterprise?

A: The "Electronic Information Products Pollution Control Labeling Requirements" standard (hereinafter referred to as "Marking Standards") is a recommended standard and is not mandatory. However, since the “Measures for the Administration of Pollution Control of Electronic Information Products” (hereinafter referred to as the “Administrative Measures”) cites this standard, this standard is mandatory after the “Administrative Measures” become effective. The length of the transition period is determined by the “Administrative Measures”. The decision is not related to this standard.

Question: What is the relationship between the Administrative Measures and the Marking Standard?

A: The "Administrative Measures" is the State Council Department in the form of the Joint Ministerial Decree No. 39 jointly formulated by the Ministry of Information Industry, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the seven departments of the State Environmental Protection Administration. Regulations, including provisions for identifying environmental information of electronic information products; "Marking Standards" are formulated in accordance with the "Administrative Measures", standardizing the requirements for marking in the "Administrative Measures", and clarifying the methods and methods of marking. The most important purpose of formulating the "Marketing Standards" is to solve the implementation of some provisions of the "Administrative Measures". It is one of the important supporting standards for the implementation of the "Administrative Measures."

Q: What is the Product Labeling Regulations?

A: The "Product Labeling and Labeling Regulations" is one of the existing national product labeling regulations. It was formulated by the former State Bureau of Technical Supervision in 1997. The labeling requirements not specified in the "Marking Standards" should be referred to the "Product Marking Requirements". "carried out.

Q: Is the scope of control of the Marking Standard consistent with the Administrative Measures?

A: The "Marking Standard" is the supporting standard of the "Administrative Measures". Its control scope is completely consistent with the management method, that is, electronic information products sold in China, excluding military products and export products.

Q: Do you need to mark the consumables such as toner cartridges and ink cartridges used in copiers? Does the battery product need to be labeled?

A: According to the "Electronic Information Product Classification Notes", toner cartridges, ink cartridges and other consumables belong to the category of "electronic computer supporting products and consumables" in the computer industry. The battery belongs to the "battery" category in the electronic device industry, and all need to be identified. .

Q: It is clearly stated in the "Marking Standards" that "decabromodiphenyl ether" is not a toxic or hazardous substance. Does this mean that commercial decabromodiphenyl ether can be used in electronic information products?

Answer: Commercial decabromodiphenyl ether has different purity, which is mixed with impurities such as nonabrominated diphenyl ether and octabromodiphenyl ether. Therefore, if decabromodiphenyl ether is used in electronic information products, it must be It is a high-purity decabromodiphenyl ether which is lower in impurity content than the “Limited Requirements for Toxic and Hazardous Substances in Electronic Information Products” (hereinafter referred to as “Limited Standards”).

Question: As mentioned in the "Marking Standards", "content refers to the content of toxic and hazardous substances or elements exceeding the limit requirements stipulated in the "Limited Standards"". What is the content of this "content"?

Answer: According to the principle of splitting determined by the “Limited Standards”, electronic information products or parts should first be divided into different constituent units, and “content” refers to the content in the constituent units.

Question: The “recycling” mentioned in the definition of “Marking Standard” refers to the recycling in principle or the recycling according to the actual situation.
