<strong>Orbit</strong> <strong>Baby</strong> <strong>XRF</strong> <strong>Screening</strong> <strong>Report</strong> - <strong>Sample</strong> <strong>Data</strong><br />

Product Name:<br />

<strong>Orbit</strong> <strong>Baby</strong> <strong>Infant</strong> Car Seat and<br />

Car Seat Base - Black<br />

Model Number: ORB830000B<br />

Manufacturing Date: 4/11/2011<br />

<strong>Screening</strong> Date: 7/27/2011<br />

Components<br />

Seat Clip Harness Shell<br />

Lead (Pb) ND ND ND ND<br />

Bromine (Br) ND ND ND ND<br />

Chlorine (Cl) ND ND ND ND<br />

Arsenic (As) ND ND ND ND<br />

Mercury (Hg) ND ND ND ND<br />

Chromium (Cr) ND ND ND ND<br />

* All models were screened using a device called an X-Ray Fluorescence (<strong>XRF</strong>) analyzer.<br />

** “ND” = Not Detectable, defined as any value less than 10ppm (parts per million). Given the state of the art of <strong>XRF</strong><br />

screening, values less than 10ppm are below the minimum detection limit of the technology.<br />

*** A note about <strong>XRF</strong> screening: <strong>XRF</strong> screening gives quick preliminary information about materials and so is most<br />

commonly used for field screening as opposed to laboratory testing. Because a material sample usually contains<br />

many elements, the <strong>XRF</strong> readings screened often show a lot of "noise.” The noise from the many different elements<br />

can indicate much higher levels of a specific element than are actually present, and <strong>XRF</strong> readings are known for<br />

outputting "false positives." While this technology does not give a conclusive answer as to the concentration of an<br />

element, it is an ideal screening tool as the negative values are conclusive while higher values can be followed up by<br />

additional wet-chemistry testing in a laboratory.
