As far as I know the product shall be produced in a large scale. The reason for putting it on the marked for a time limiting period is (again as far as I know) to run the product ( beta version) in a test installation and thereafter will it go through the entire test program (EMC, LVD, etc). It seems that they did not manage to do the testing before the 1 month test period on the field.
Again, I feel they are not doing things in the consecutive order and I also think they are no allowed to put in on the marked, even the short period.

If serious, I would disassociate from them as much as possible. If merely ignorant, and you have some sort of association with them, I would recommend that you educate them fully. Another thought, -- is this product slated for mass distribution, even for only a month, or is it going to another location or a particular customer for some special in-house use or application? What does this customer think? Are they aware, and do they agree to this? The Directives do have special provisions for certain special applications where non-compliant (or is it merely "untested" !) product can be shipped to Europe, but I believe that under those circumstances, the name of the manufacturer and product model name or designation has to be "published" broadly in the EU. I don't remember the details. If anyone can shed more light, that would be very nice.
