To Our Valued Customers:
Bodine Electric Company cares about the environment and has taken
the necessary action to ensure that our products don't have an adverse
effect on it. Early in 2006, we started manufacturing many of our products
in compliance with the European Directive 2002/95/EC on the Restriction
of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).
By the end of 2006, all but a few of our standard products will be manufactured
in compliance with the RoHS directive, and will be marked on the product nameplate
as such.
We have identified a small number of Bodine products that will not be converted
to RoHS compliant construction. These products are electronic controls.
(show models)
Availability of RoHS compliant stock models will be dependent on how quickly
we purge our inventory of each model. To find out the status of a specific stock model,
please contact your local Bodine MotionPRO
sales rep, or our customer service department in Chicago.
