EN 71-4 Chemistry Sets Toxic Substance Testing Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

EN 71-4 Chemistry Sets Toxic Substance Testing is a laboratory testing service that ensures compliance with the EUs Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, which restricts the use of hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment. This testing service is governed by various international and national standards, including ISO, ASTM, EN, TSE, and others.

International Standards

  • ISO 14001:2015 - Environmental Management Systems
  • ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories
  • IEC 62321-1:2013 - Measurement of Substance Concentrations in Materials (Chemical Analysis)
  • EN 71:2006 A1:2010 - Safety of Toys
  • National Standards

  • EU RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) - Restriction of Hazardous Substances
  • US FDAs Medical Device Regulation (21 CFR Part 812)
  • Canadian CSA Standard (CSA C22.2 No. 6-14)
  • Standard Development Organizations and their Role

    International organizations such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC), and national standard development bodies like the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) play a crucial role in developing standards for EN 71-4 Chemistry Sets Toxic Substance Testing.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect new technologies, regulatory changes, or emerging risks. For example, the introduction of lead-free soldering and the revision of RoHS directives have driven updates to relevant testing standards.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some key standard numbers and their scope are as follows:

  • EN 71:2006 A1:2010 - Safety of Toys (covering chemical, physical, and biological hazards)
  • IEC 62321-1:2013 - Measurement of Substance Concentrations in Materials (Chemical Analysis) (focusing on chemical analysis for RoHS compliance)
  • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Industry-specific compliance requirements vary depending on the product category. For example:

  • Electrical and electronic equipment must comply with EU RoHS directive
  • Medical devices must adhere to US FDAs Medical Device Regulation (21 CFR Part 812)
