Hello everone, I have a question related to products under the machinery directive:
We have a mains switch and an emergency switch on a machine. The testing agency insists these should be marked in words near the switches. (Of course that would be a different marking in every geopgraphical location depending on the local language) This requirement is obviously a problem, and we are not sure it is well founded. We would much rather settle for an "icon" type of marking or no marking (i.e. the emergency switch is obviously a red "mushroom" type) Please comment on this from your knowledge and experience thanks and happy holidays Moshe -------------------------------------------- Name: moshe valdman E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 972-52-941200 Telefax: 972-3-5496369 List-Post: [email protected] Date: 17/12/98 Time: 18:29:41 You are most welcome to visit my homepage at: http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/5233/ -------------------------------------------- --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
