Folks: The date code was NOT to be displayed adjacent to the CE marking per the "Old Directive" This was eliminated in one of the amendment to 89/392/EEC.
Per 1.7.3 of 98/37/EC, Annex 1, section 1.7.3, the year of construction (date) must be marked ON the machinery legibly and indelibly. I hope this helps. Mark A. D'Agostino 978 739 7016 md'[email protected] http://www.tuvglobal.com ------------- Original Text From: "George, David L" <[email protected]>, on 11/25/98 7:39 AM: Lisa: There seems to be one difference. Can anyone verify how the date code is to be displayed? As in the old directive, Directive 98/37/EC requires the use of the year of manufacture. The old Directive indicated the year of manufacture should be a part of the CE mark, The new Directive appears to specify the year of manufacture is to placed on the product label. Does anyone have information about where the year is to be indicated and what happened to the year with the CE mark?
