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
Power Connectors
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 Series
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 3.0mm Dual Row PCB Headers with PCB Polarizing Peg, 43045 Series
Micro-Fit 3.0 3mm pitch wire to board dual row PCB headers which form part of a compact power connector system providing a low to mid-range power distribution solution. With the ability to carry up to 5A of current, Micro-Fit 3.0 connectors have one of the highest current carrying abilities in the smallest footprints available. These Micro-Fit 3.0 PCB headers incorporate positive latching in the form of a locking ramp on the housing for secure mating and to prevent accidental disconnection. The housings are made of high-temperature UL 94V-0 Liquid Crystal Polymer that can withstand temperatures of up to 265°C during the IR reflow soldering process. The through hole mounting versions of these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers are also SMT compatible which means a reduction in process requirements and costs. To help position and align these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers to the PCB board, PCB polarising pegs are incorporated into the connector design. part numbers ending in xx12, xx13 and xx14 also feature kinked solder legs for additional PCB retention. The contacts of these Micro-Fit 3.0 headers are fully isolated within the housings to reduce arcing. Tin or a choice of two thicknesses of gold contact platings are available to keep down costs.
Features and Benefits
• High current carrying capacity in a small footprint
• High temperature housings for IR reflow soldering
• Through hole versions SMT compatible
• Positive latching for secure mating connection
• Fully isolated dual beam terminals for reliable electrical performance and contact
• PCB polarising pegs for alignment and positioning on PCB
• Kinked solder legs for additional PCB retention
• Glow Wire Compliant
Product Application Information
