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.

Keysight U1230 Series Digital Multimeters
Keysight U1230 Series handheld digital multimeters are designed to perform in poor environmental conditions and worst-case scenarios. With the built in flashlight, the ergonomic shaped handheld digital multimeter allows you to single handedly illuminate the test area while selecting measurements functions using the anti-slip rotary dial making it much easier for you to improve production whilst working in lower light environments. For improved safety the U1230 series digital multimeters also allow you to run continuity tests with visual (flashing backlight display) and audible (beeper) alerts. Vsense performs non-contact voltage detection. This battery powered handheld digital multimeter features true rms readings with a 6000 count, 3 1/2 digit display and analogue bar graph results without the complications.

Non-contact voltage detection with Vsense
The Vsense, a unique feature found in the U1233 Series performs non-contact voltage detection. It delivers more safety while making measurements in dangerous working environments by avoiding any contact with hot or live wires. Upon detection of voltage, it produces a unique combination of beeping alert and blinking LED light to make measurements more efficiently – especially in a dark or noisy environment.
Does this come with a calibration certificate?
Yes - Certificate of Calibration will be available.
