A, ce product certification is what it means
Products do not only need to comply with CE certification, CE certified products also need to be in the product nameplate or box labeled with the "CE" certification logo, CE certification is a right to give the product CE mark, with the CE mark of the product is considered to be In line with European product safety rules, can be free in the European Economic Area (EEA).
Two, what is CE marking?
CE certification is a product to give the right to CE marking should start from the development stage of the product, because in the development process there are some product safety, user health and environment-related CE requirements are good; however, can be issued for ready-to-use products CE certificate, with CE certificate products must comply with the European safety rules, and only after this can be free in the European Economic Area ( EEA) freely.
To understand the scope of CE certification of products, the first need to understand the CE certification of the specific inclusion of which directives, which involves an important concept: "Directive", the so-called "Directive" (English name: Directive) refers to the provisions of the basic safety requirements for products and ways of The so-called "Directive" (English name: Directive) refers to the provisions of the basic safety requirements of the product and the way the technical regulations, each directive is for a specific product category, so understand the meaning of the directive can understand the CE certification of the specific product range.
Generally speaking, CE marking is a mandatory certification in the EU. The EU market is clearly defined. All products exported to the EU must apply for CE marking. CE marking is a passport for products exported to the EU and must be applied for. Otherwise, it will not be able to sell in the EU market through customs.
The CE mark is a safety mark, not a quality mark. It is the main requirement that forms the core of the European Directive.
In the EU market, the CE mark is a mandatory certification mark. Whether it is a product produced by a company within the EU or a product produced in another country, if you want to circulate freely in the EU market, you must add the CE marking to show that the product complies with the basic requirements of the EU. EU Directive on new methods of technical harmonization and standardization. This is a mandatory requirement for products under EU law.
Three, CE marking requirements:
1. The product must not cause harm to health, the environment and consumers before circulation in the market.
2. Products legally sold in EU countries can also be sold in other member states.
The manufacturer affixes the EU CE mark on the product, indicating that the product fully complies with the relevant provisions of the EU Directive. If permitted by law or regulation, the CE marking can also be placed on packaging or accessories.
The EU CE marking is not a test mark, but simply indicates that the manufacturer declares that its product complies with all relevant regulations. There are a number of conformity assessment models available to mark whether they meet the essential requirements, which may involve manufacturers, importers, distributors and others. If you want to apply for CE marking to show that a product complies with the standard, you will still need to find a third-party testing organization to certify it.
Four, CE marking purposes:
The European Union not only has a large number of laws, regulations and harmonized standards, but the content is also very complex. Therefore, it is wise to save time, energy and risk with the help of the EU Notified Body;
Acquiring a CE certificate from the EU Notified Body can, to a certain extent, gain the trust of consumers and market regulators;
It can effectively prevent the emergence of irresponsible allegations;
In the face of lawsuits, CE certificates of EU Notified Bodies will become the CE certificates with legal effect of technical evidence;
Once penalized by the EU, the certification body will share the risk with the enterprise, thus reducing the enterprise risk.
1. CE certification can improve the competitiveness of the product;
2. The product can be exempted from the risk of seizure when it leaves the customs;
3. Reducing the risk of being investigated in the inspection;
4. Once the product has been investigated and dealt with, the third-party testing organization will take part of the responsibility and reduce the risk;
5. Consumers will be more trusting in the product with the CE certification mark;
6. CE certification mark of the product;
6. On behalf of the CE certification mark of the product on behalf of the product is responsible for the standard provisions, but also a guarantee of safety;
V. Need for CE certification of products:
1. Machinery and equipment (MD)
2. Explosion-proof Directive (ATEX)
3. Electrical equipment (LVD)
4. Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC)
5. Construction Products (CPR)
6. Medical Devices (MDD)
7. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
8. Pressure Equipment (PED)
9. Radio Equipment (RED)
10. CE marking of toys
11.Ceramics CE Certificate
12.Measuring Instruments
13.Elevator Directive (LIFTS)
Six, CE certification process
1, the commissioner to provide product information and related requirements to the GTT evaluation quote;
2, the commissioner to confirm the return of the signature quote, fill out the application form, provide samples, information (see Notes), and Arrange the payment (down payment), GTT open the case;
3, GTT arrange product testing, and review the information;
4, such as testing, information problems, arrangements for rectification, retesting, until qualified;
5, testing, information qualified, GTT issued a CE certificate report;
6, if you need to be issued with a CE certificate of the European Union NB agency, GTT submit the test report and related information. GTT submits the test report and related information to the NB agency for examination and issuance of certificate;
7. If it is necessary to issue the CE certificate report of international agencies such as TUV, GTT will make an appointment with the issuing agency to conduct the eye-witness test;
8. After the eye-witness test is completed, the issuing agency will issue a CE test report and CE certificate;
9. The commissioner will pay off the money (the final payment), get the certificate report, and close the case. Get the certificate report and close the case.
Seven, CE certification information needs
1. Circuit schematic & PCB layout diagram;
2. Product manuals as well as product nameplates;
3. Product working principle diagrams as well as block diagrams;
4. List of key components (wire, plug, wire, varistors, optocouplers, X / Y capacitors, Transformer, housing, etc.)
5. Product BOM list;
6. Product related specifications.
Remarks:
Wired low-voltage products CE-EMC certification requires information: product manuals / specifications.
Wired strong product CE-EMC + LVD certification to provide information: product manuals / specifications, circuit schematic diagrams, PCB diagrams, certificates of certification of key components / specifications, nameplates.
Wireless products CE-EMC + LVD + RED certification to provide information: product manuals / specifications, circuit schematic diagrams, PCB diagrams, certificates of certification of key components / specifications, nameplates, block diagrams, line descriptions, frequency software, antenna specifications.
Key components include: plugs, power cords, adhesive housings, PCB boards, transformers and materials, switches, X-capacitors, Y-capacitors, optocouplers, inductors, temperature controls, insurances, rechargeable batteries, external adapters/power supplies/chargers, and so on.
Eight, CE certification cycle?
The general cycle is about 1-2 weeks, expedited 2-5 working days. Customer-centered is our core principle, urgent customer's urgent, your request for time is the direction of the struggle of all TPV colleagues.
Nine, the announcement of the difference between institutional certificates, self-issued certificates?
The EU announcement agency is the NB agency, is the official designated by the European Union, and there are corresponding to the only announcement number;
In the Chinese market to carry out business independently of the EU announcement agency is not much, a lot of them are through the domestic third-party certification and testing organizations on behalf of the process.
