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 IDM-8300 Series Dual Measurement Multimeters
RS PRO IDM-8300 Series bench digital multimeters (DMM) include 50 000 counts, VF (vacuum fluorescent) dual-display, 0-02% basic DC voltage accuracy and a USB protocol connector. These features provide users with measurement precision, comprehensive data observation and the convenience of a connection to a PC.
RS PRO IDM-8300 Series models IDM-8341 (123-3535) and IDM-8342 (123-3536) offer typical multimeter capabilities plus capacitance measurement. 124-0228 has all the features of model IDM-8342 and offers, in addition, temperature measurement and USB storage for data collection and GPIB (general purpose interface bus). GPIB offers the IEEE 488 standard digital 8-bit parallel communications interface for automatic measurement and convenient data save and retrieval.
The RS PRO range of handheld and bench digital multimeters are great value for money and also high quality you can rely on.
