With years of hard work, we at UOTEK obtain a copious number of certifications that verify our ability to provide capable products to secure the industrial network. Thus, in order to help you have a clear understanding of us, in this article, we will talk about some vital certifications we get and their standards and goodness.
CE Mark
The CE mark on a product implies that the product's manufacturer affirms its compliance with the relevant EU legislation, and it can be sold anywhere in the European Economic Area (EEA). If there are CE marks on commercial products, it means the product is strictly in accordance with European health, environmental protection, and safety standards. Commercial products such as electronic equipment and IoT solutions are required to own CE marks.
It is worth mentioning that UOTEK successfully gains the CE mark among various products to protect the industrial network. The followings are some of our products that obtain CE certification.
UT-2209, a repeater with optoelectronic isolation, not only complies with the RS-485 standard but also follows the CE mark. It enables the extension of communication distance and increases the stability and quality of the industrial network.
UT-211, an RS-232 serial port optoelectronic isolator, adopts advanced optoelectronic isolation technology. It can maximally protect the device from bad environmental damage.
UT-5508, a remote data acquisition module, is used for the acquisition of analog input. It is designed with rigorous industry standards and can be remotely controlled through a series of instructions in UTBUS protocol.
Not only that, we still have copious numbers of products such as UT-9021A, UT6311, and others that obtain the CE mark to secure the industrial network better.
RoHS Directive
RoHS, known as Directive 2002/95/EC, stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances. It is a directive that aims to restrict certain hazardous substances in the manufacture of various types of electronic equipment. RoHS achieves to secure industrial network by prohibiting the use of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium (CrVI), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).
It is acknowledged that the restricted materials showed in RoHS are hazardous to the environment. Not only this, these restricted materials will cause certain pollution and are dangerous in terms of exposure during manufacturing and disposal. Thus, any business which sells products to EU countries should follow the rule.
We at UOTEK are delighted to obtain RoHS certified, which means that we have made great progress in protecting the industrial network. Our R&D team and manufacturer team are highly trained to produce high-quality products with unique equipment and workstations by strictly following the standard of RoHS. The following are some of our products that get RoHS certification.
UT-890A, a USB to RS-485/422 converter, is designed to fast transmission speed between PC and the equipment.
UT-2602, an industrial Ethernet switch, is your best choice for a smart building or fiber desktop solution with the support of RoHS.
UT-242E, an RS-232 to RS-485/422 converter, is designed to convert communication between PC with different standard serial ports and equipment or intelligent instruments.
We are so proud of delivering capable services and products that pass RoHS to our clients with increasing environmental consciousness.
FCC Certification
FCC certification, which means approval of devices with radio technologies in the USA, is strictly in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Communications Commission. For manufacturers who want to obtain market approval for devices like radio receivers, IoT sensors, remote controls, etc., they must obtain FCC certification for the respective device in the USA.
To mention that, UOTEK gets the FCC certification for most of the products, which shows we are always dedicated to securing the industrial network. In order to gain access to the USA market, we at UOTEK are rigorously following the procedures laid down by FCC to produce our products. The followings are some of our products that obtain FCC certification:
UT-1208, which is specially designed for the RS485 system to operate under complicated fields, is an RS-485 Hub. It can not only provide safety and reliable communication but also offer lightning protection. Thus, UT-1208 is capable of using outdoors, such as highway toll systems, traffic monitoring systems, and power systems.
UT-5204 is a DIN rail used for mounting circuit breakers and industrial control equipment inside equipment racks. It has strong adaptability, so that it works well with all communication software. Once you plug it in, you can use it simultaneously. It is worth mentioning that the product will protect the industrial network by isolating the network if there is a network segment problem.
In addition, we still have various products, including UT-1304, UT2204, and others, that are strictly produced under FCC certification to protect the industrial network.
