BS EN 62321-3-2:2014

What is BS EN 62321-3-2 - Determining the level of certain substances in electromechanical products about?  

BS EN 62321-3-2 is the third part of an international standard used for electrotechnical products that specify the test method and procedure for bromine (Br) in polymers and electronics in electrotechnical products. This helps in determining the level of a certain substance in electrotechnical products. By using BS EN 62321-3-2 you can ensure environmental safety and can manufacture better quality electrotechnical products.  

BS EN 62321-3-2 specifies the screening analysis of the total bromine (Br) in homogeneous materials found in polymers and electronics by using the analytical technique of combustion ion chromatography (C-IC).  

This test method has been evaluated for ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), EMC (epoxy molding compound), and PE (polyethylene) within the concentration ranges as specified in Table 1. The use of this method for other types of materials or concentration ranges outside those specified below has not been evaluated. 

Note: BS EN 62321-3-2 does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 

Who is BS EN 62321-3-2 - Determining the level of certain substances in electromechanical products for? 

BS EN 62321-3-2 on Determination of certain substances in electrotechnical products 

 is useful for: 

• Manufacturer of electronic components 
• Manufacturer of automotive parts  
• Electronic engineers  

Why should you use BS EN 62321-3-2 - Determining the level of certain substances in electromechanical products?  

By using electrotechnical products the attention is drawn to the impact on the environment. Hence many countries have started adopting regulations affecting wastes, substances, and energy use of electrotechnical products.  

BS EN 62321-3-2 specifies the test requirements, test methods, and procedures for bromine (Br) in polymers and electronics in electrotechnical products. This test method is useful in reducing the conductivity of the eluent with an anion suppression device. The screening is useful in reducing the test methods and helps in verifying the brominated flame retardants in electrotechnical products.  

By applying BS EN 62321-3-2 you can determine the levels of certain substances in electrotechnical products. This helps manufacture good quality electrotechnical products and ensures safety of you and the environment.
