Compared to the old directive 2002/95/EC, main revisions are as follows: 

1.   擴(kuò)大了產(chǎn)品范圍：將所有的電子電氣產(chǎn)品都涵蓋在了指令管控的范圍內(nèi)（包括線纜和備用零部件），但是給予了新添入的第8類醫(yī)療器械、第9類監(jiān)視和控制儀器（包括工業(yè)監(jiān)控儀器）一定的過渡期，此外，還針對這兩類產(chǎn)品 給出了20項(xiàng)的豁免（列于附件IV中）；

In addition, 20 exemptions are listed in Annex IV for these two categories;

2.   厘清了部分定義；
Clarified some definitions;

3.   管控物質(zhì)的范圍未擴(kuò)大，還是維持了原有的六種物質(zhì)的原限量要求，但是提出了今后的審查過程中，要對包括DEHP等在內(nèi)的物質(zhì)優(yōu)先進(jìn)行考察；
Maintains the limits for current six substances, but requires prior assessments on substances including
DEHP in the future inspection;

4.   刪除了其中的生產(chǎn)商規(guī)定，而添入了“制造商”、“授權(quán)代表”、“進(jìn)口商”、“經(jīng)銷商”的定義，并對其職責(zé)進(jìn)行了明確的界定；
Deleted the specification for producer and added definitions for manufacturer, authorized representative, importer and distributor, and clarified the responsibilities respectively and clearly.
