At the moment, the sum of both groups’ Application Codes are listed in the pull-down menu for these substances, which might lead to an incorrect choice.

On 26th March, this will be changed so that only intersecting Application Codes (available for both heavy metal substance groups) can be selected.

These are in all cases only the following two:

  • Other application (potentially prohibited)

  • Concentration within acceptable GADSL limits

Components that use an invalid Application Code for one of the substances will show a Warning in the MDS Check after 26th March 2018 and should be updated.
