RoHS Statement

The stockholders and employees of AlfaMag Electronics, LLC are long-time advocates of environmental preservation. In keeping with legislation passed by the European Union in 2003 requiring the reduction of certain hazardous substances (RoHS) used in the manufacture of products, AlfaMag is taking the necessary steps to ensure all suppliers are compliant to the RoHS directives.

Currently, nearly 90% of AlfaMag’s magnetic components (inductors, chokes, transformers, etc) supplied by Talema Electronic are RoHS complaint. Talema defines Pb-Free to mean all its products are compatible with current RoHS requirements for all six substances including the requirement that LEAD not exceed 0.1% by weight in all homogeneous material. These substances include Pb, Cd, Hg, cr6+, PBB and PBDE. In some instances only lead free solder will be utilized, and it is our policy to ensure that all lead free items are backward compatible with existing lead processes. Data sheets indicating RoHS compliance and solder profiles for lead free products are available.

Regarding our switching power supplies and wall adaptors, it is AlfaMag’s intent to avail our customers of fully RoHS compliant products by the July 2006. We are working diligently with our supplier partners to ensure compliance by this deadline.
