s

“Removal

Hazardous

Sub

-

stances”

directive

2002/95/EC

(RoHS).

This

directive

seeks

to

elimi

-

nate

toxic

substances

from

the

manufacturing

process,

such

that

when

equipment

is

disposed

of

at

the

end

of

its

life

cycle,

the

materials

it

contains

do

not

contaminate

the

environment

and

pose

health

risks.

Banned

substances

are

lead,

mercury

,

cadmium,

hexavalent

chro

-

mium,

polybrominated

biphenyls

(PBB)

and

polybrominated

diphenyl

ethers

(PBDE).

Lead

is

used

together

with

tin

in

solder

connections

to

reduce

the

melting

point

of

solder

.

Lead-free

solder

requires

higher

soldering

temperatures

which

in

turn

places

greater

thermal

stress

on

components.

PMI

Audio

Group

takes

seriously

its

obligations

under

the

RoHS

directive

and

insists

that

its

factories

use

only

components

that

are

certified

RoHS

compliant,

as

well

as

leadfree

solder

. In

a

very

few

cases

the

necessary

components

may

not

yet

be

avail

able

to

the

world

market

but

we

work

continuously

to

eliminate

any

such

exceptions

at

the

earliest

opportunity

. Our

printed

Circuit

Boards

(PCB’

s)

and

all

soldered

joints

have

been

lead-free since 2005.
