  • Beryllium and Its Compounds
    Proposed RoHS Additional Substances Consultation – Beryllium and its compounds Submitted by: John Wagner Director of Materials Management Association of Equipment Manufacturers Email: [email protected] Tel: 001 414 298 4164 Background and issues caused by substitution AEM is a US trade association representing manufacturers of industrial equipment including products in the construction and agricultural sectors. Some of AEM members’ products are in scope of the RoHS directive although many are excluded as types of professional Non-Road Mobile Machinery (as defined by RoHS) or as equipment that is specifically designed to be installed in excluded types of equipment. Products that are in scope are believed to be mainly in RoHS category 11 with some in categories 6 and 9. Most AEM members’ products are complex products designed for long lifetimes and high reliability. They must comply with other legislation apart from RoHS, such as the Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) Emissions Regulation that necessitates gaining approval in the EU from a Notified Body after any changes are made to product design such as would result from new RoHS restrictions. The NRMM Regulation requires engines to meet strict emissions limits, have proven reliability and long lifetimes and manufacturers must test engines to obtain this data before approval can be granted. Another issue for AEM’s members is that most of their products have niche uses and are not made in large numbers. However many of the component parts used are obtained from suppliers whose main markets are types of products that are excluded from RoHS, such as in heavy goods vehicles.
