Standards

CE

The CE conformity marking shall indicate conformity to all the obligations imposed

on the manufacturer, as regards his products, by virtue of the European

Community directives providing for the affixing of the CE marking.

 

When the CE marking is affixed on a product, it represents a declaration of the

manufacturer or of his authorized representative that the product in question

conforms to all the applicable provisions including the conformity assessment

procedures. This prevents the Member States from limiting the marketing and

putting into service of products bearing the CE marking, unless this measure

is justified by the proved non-conformity of the product.

Flow diagram for the conformity assessment procedures established by the Directive

2006/95/CE on electrical equipment designed for use within particular voltage range:

Manufacturer

Technical file

The manufacturer

draw up the technical

documentation

covering the design,

manufacture and

operation of the

product

EC declaration of

conformity

The manufacturer

guarantees and declares

that his products are in

conformity to the technical

documentation and to the

directive requirements

 

Naval type approval

The environmental conditions which characterize the use of circuit breakers for

on-board installations can be different from the service conditions in standard

industrial environments; as a matter of fact, marine applications can require

installation under particular conditions, such as:

- environments characterized by high temperature and humidity, including saltmist

atmosphere (damp-heat, salt-mist environment);

- on board environments (engine room) where the apparatus operate in the

presence of vibrations characterized by considerable amplitude and duration.

In order to ensure the proper function in such environments, the shipping registers

require that the apparatus has to be tested according to specific type

approval tests, the most significant of which are vibration, dynamic inclination,

humidity and dry-heat tests.
