LONDON – A new publication by a electronics industry collaborative provides guidance to manufacturers and design engineers on recent RoHS changes.

The free RoHS eBook incorporates new rules invoked last September, and will eventually include a range of additional electronics and electrical products not previously covered by the European environmental legislation. It also outlines dates when medical devices and monitoring and control instruments (along with additional exemptions) will fall within scope.

The collaborative known as element14 also offers guidance on EU RoHS, China RoHS, Korea RoHS, REACH, ErP, WEEE, the Battery Directive plus state and provincial environmental laws in the US and Canada.
