Legislation and Compliance
RoHS Certificate of Compliance
EU Directives 2011/65/EU and 2015/863 restrict the use of the 10 substances below in the manufacture of specified types of electrical equipment.
Whilst this restriction does not legally apply to components, it is recognised that component “compliance” is relevant to many customers.
RS definition of RoHS Compliance:
- The product does not contain any of the restricted substances in concentrations and applications banned by the Directive,
- and for components, the product is capable of being worked on at the higher temperatures required by lead–free soldering
The restricted substances and maximum allowed concentrations in the homogenous material are, by weight:
| Substance | Concentration |
| Lead | 0.1% |
| Mercury | 0.1% |
| PBB (Polybrominated Biphenyls) | 0.1% |
| PBDE ( Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers) | 0.1% |
| Hexavalent Chromium | 0.1% |
| Cadmium | 0.01% |
| DEHP (Bis (2-Ethylhexl) phthalate) | 0.1% |
| BBP (Benzyl butyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DBP (Dibutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DIBP (Diisobutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
The supplier of the item listed below has informed RS Components that the product is "RoHS Compliant".
RS Components has taken all reasonable steps to confirm this statement. Information relates only to products sold on or after the date of this certificate.

Product Details
RS PRO ATEX Magnet Stick
A non-contact magnetic field detector and solenoid tester, which lights up when the tip is in the presence of a magnetic field. The magnet stick is able to detect a variety of magnetic fields, from alternating current and direct current to permanent strong magnets. The test lamp of your magnet stick lights up immediately and without metallic contact when a magnetic field is present (e.g. an activated coil in a solenoid valve). A small test magnet is also housed in the cap allowing users to test to ensure the article is working correctly for accurate detection. Ideal for testing solenoid valves in pneumatic systems, hydraulics and vehicles, relays with coils can also be tested.
WARNING : Do not open when an explosive atmosphere is present
Features and Benefits:
• Easy to use

• Checking the functionality of relays, contactors, solenoids and coils • Testing solenoid valves in pneumatic and hydraulic equipment
• Automotive relay fault finding
• Air conditioning servicing
• Fault finding
• Testing solenoid valves when servicing oil burners
What is a magnetic field detector?
A magnetic tester or detector such as the Magnet Stick, is an instrument that is able to detect magnetism, they are able to identify magnetic materials or fields.
What is a magnetic field?
It is a vector field and best describes the magnetic influence of electric charge in magnetic materials or relative motion. Measured usually by strength and direction, these vector quantities can be measured in Gauss or units of Tesla in SI units. They are otherwise known as a moving electrical charge often used in electromechanics and engineering within electric motors.
