What is RoHS?
Starting in July 2006, EU Directive 2002/95/EC, "Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)," will forbid importation into the European Union of any new electrical and/or electronic equipment sent to market after July 1st, 2006, made of materials containing more than 100 parts per million (ppm) of cadmium (Cd), or more than 1000 parts per million (ppm) each of mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), hexavalent chromium (Cr+6), polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). As a manufacturer of electronic components or circuit boards, what does this mean to you? This means as a CM your incoming components or out going shipments must be verified to be free of these materials. This also applies to electronic component suppliers and/or manufacturers who wish to keep their domestic CM and OEM customers in compliance.

Why do I need a Validator?
The Validator is a desktop based ED-XRF system, so all of your analysis, verification, and validation stays in-house. The Validator requires very little sample preparation. In most cases you simply place a component or final assembly directly into the inspectionchamber. A live video image and target overlay confirm the inspection area. Operation of the system is as simple as pressing a button on the software and letting it run. In seconds you will have highly accurate and repeatable data. The data can then be exported to an Excel file for your reporting process.Calibration of the system is a simple procedure only required once at the beginning of the day.
The Validator is complete spectrometer that has been specifically configured for RoHS compliance.The calibration, operation, and reporting of the process have been simplified to permit quick cycle times and accurate results for all users.
What is XRF?
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is the technology where a material is exposed to X-rays of high energy, and when the X-ray strikes an atom in the sample, energy is absorbed by the atom. If the energy is high enough, a core electron is ejected out of its atomic orbital. An electron from an outer shell then drops into the unoccupied orbital, to fill the hole. This transition gives off an X-ray of predictable energy that can be detected by a fluorescence detector.
Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence technology (ED-XRF) provides one of the simplest, most accurate and most economicmethods to determine the composition of many types of materials. It is non-destructive and reliable, requires no sample preparation and is suitable for solid component samples.
The International Electrotechnical Commission describes x-ray fluorescence analysis, with its minimal requirements for sample preparation, as being suited for fast quantitative screening.
XRF Technology has been in use for many years in all industries as well as academic, government laboratories and R&D facilities.
