Material Declaration

August 15, 2022 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

Updates to the IEC 62474 Declarable Substance List for the Electronics Industry

IEC

IEC 62474 DSL updated to include PFCA substances

On July 18, 2022, the IEC 62474 Declarable Substances List (DSL) was updated to version D25.00.

The IEC 62474 database is an International Standard for the electrical and electronics industry on material declaration that includes the internationally recognized DSL, a material declaration procedure, and an XML-schema for data exchange.  This database is maintained by the IEC TC-111: Environmental standardization for electrical and electronic products and systems.

The IEC 62474 DSL is a list of regulated substances and substance groups which a manufacturer should declare to downstream manufacturers if present in electrical or electronic equipment (EEE). The list is based on global requirements applicable to the EEE industry, and is screened to exclude substances which are not relevant to the electrical and electronic products. 

The IEC 62474 Database version D25.00 update includes:

1.      Addition of two new substance group entries based on the new EU REACH Annex XVII entry 68 to the IEC 62474 database’s Declarable Substances List (DSL):

  • C9-C14 PFCAs and their salts
  • C9-C14 PFCA-related substances

Typical uses of both substance groups include greases, textiles and other coated products, and emulsifiers used for manufacturing Fluoropolymers.

2.      Addition of a non-exhaustive list of discreet reference substances related to the newly added substance groups to the IEC 62474 database Reference Substances List (RSL).

3.      Update of the EU RoHS Annex III exemption list to version 5.0, which includes the addition of recent updates to EU RoHS Annex III exemptions.

4.      Review of N-(hydroxymethyl)acrylamide, which was added to the REACH Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) Candidate List in June 2022. The substance was deemed not relevant to the EEE industry for the purpose of material declaration and was screened out by the IEC 62474 Validation Team. As a result, the substance was added to the IEC 62474 database complementary list (not to the DSL).

Companies using the IEC 62474 DSL to communicate substance data across the supply chain should ensure they are referencing the latest addition of the DSL, which can be accessed here.
