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.
