認識 RoHS 規範
歐盟 RoHS 禁限用有害物質指令是電機電子設備業者都認識的綠色環保規範,管制內容是針在歐盟市場流通之主要電子電機產品,而目前已經更新至 2.0 版本。RoHS 2.0 即是指令 2011/65/EU,自 2011/7/21 生效,歐盟要求各成員國將新指令轉換成當地法律,並於 2013/1/2 開始實施,原指令 2005/95/EC (RoHS 1.0) 自 2013/1/3 廢止。
歐盟隨後又發布 RoHS2.0 修訂指令 (EU)2015/863,歐盟 RoHS 2.0 更新終於塵埃落定,此修訂指令發布後,歐盟各成員國需在 2016/12/31 前將此指令轉為各國的法規並執行。且 2019/7/22 起所有輸歐電子電器產品 (除醫療和監控設備) 均需滿足該限制要求 ; 2021/7/22 起,醫療設備 (包括體外醫療設備) 和監控設備 (包括工業監控設備) 也將納入該管控範圍。
