Which products do CE certification

       Electronic appliances, electrical appliances, building materials, household goods, medical products, toys, machinery and equipment, wireless products, transport, safety protection labor insurance products, amusement equipment, hardware bathroom, gas appliances, pressure equipment, Equipment testing equipment, and many other areas, exports to the EU, are required to CE certification. In the EU market, "CE" logo is a mandatory certification mark, whether it is the production of products within the EU, or other countries to produce products, in order to free circulation in the EU market, it must be affixed "CE" logo to indicate the product In line with the EU "technical coordination and standardization of new methods" directive of the basic requirements.

CE certification which instructions

In recent years, in the European Economic Area (European Union, European Free Trade Association member countries, Switzerland, except) market sales of goods, CE mark the use of more and more, CE mark affixed to the goods that meet the safety, Environmental protection and consumer protection and a series of European directives to express the requirements. As of December 1997, the European Union issued the instructions to implement the CE mark as follows:

1. Low Voltage Directive (LVD) Instruction No.: 2015/35 / EU
LVD Low Voltage Directive (Low Voltage Directive 2006/95 / EC), LVD aims to ensure the safety of low voltage devices when in use. The instruction is intended for use with electrical products with a voltage of between 50V and 1000V and between 75V and 1500V DC. This directive contains all safety rules for this equipment, including protection against mechanical hazards. The design and construction of the equipment shall be such as to ensure that there is no danger in its intended use, under normal operating conditions or under fault conditions.

Summary: The use of voltage for the exchange of 50V to 1000V and DC 75V to 1500V between the electrical and electronic products do CE certification, must be low voltage instruction LVD certification.

2. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) instruction number: 2014/30 / EU
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) refers to the ability of a device or system to comply with the requirements of its electromagnetic environment without causing unacceptable electromagnetic interference to any equipment in its environment. Therefore, EMC includes two requirements: on the one hand refers to the equipment in the normal operation of the environment where the electromagnetic interference can not exceed a certain limit; the other is the appliance on the existence of electromagnetic interference in the environment has a certain The degree of immunity, that is, electromagnetic sensitivity.

Summary: live products do CE certification, have to do EMC certification EMC certification.

3. Wireless instruction (RTTE) instruction number: 1999/5 / EC
Including the wireless band to send and receive live products do CE certification, must do this directive.
Wireless product CE certification need to do the instructions: EMC directive, LVD instruction, RTTE instruction, EMF instruction (according to the wireless product and the human body to determine whether the need to do EMF)

4. Mechanical Instructions (MD) Instruction No.: 2006/42/2
The machinery described in the Machinery Directive includes a single machine, a set of mechanical and interchangeable equipment. Do not take the mechanical machinery to do CE certification, the need for mechanical instruction certification, if the live machinery, generally need to add mechanical safety regulations LVD instruction certification.
It should be noted that the dangerous machinery to pay attention to distinguish between dangerous machinery requirements to do the agency's CE certification.

5. Personal Protection Equipment Directive (PPE) Directive: 89/686 / EEC
PPE is a shorthand for personal protective equipment, and the term PPE means any device or appliance that is for personal injury or wearing of one or more hazards that are harmful to health and safety. Mainly used to protect employees from exposure to chemical radiation, electrical equipment, manpower equipment, mechanical equipment or in some dangerous workplace caused by serious work injury or disease.
