A caveat!
Under national implementations of the EC "Workplace Framework"
89/391/EEC:"Measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of
workers at work" directive and its subsidiary directives, some national
legislation requires "own-use" equipment to be compliant to Directives
compliant & some also requires that it be CE Marked. This is true in the UK
and may be true elsewhere. You have to check directive by directive!

Subject: RE: Custom Units in EU
Joe,
I looked into this last year. It appears to me that one can import
non-certified 61010-type equipment for in-house use. But, it technically
must still be able to pass safety, EMC, ESD, surge, and so on. Pretty much
like self certification without the final step or two.

Subject: Custom Units in EU
Greetings,
We are planning to manufacture up to 50 units for laboratory use. Each of
these units will be one of a kind. These units will be shipped to the EU
to our own laboratory and operated by our personnel. If I recall correctly
there are exemptions for one of a kind units for EMC, LVD and Machinery
Directives. However, I was unable to locate this information in the
guidelines to these Directives. Can members of the group provide me with
specific information regarding the requirements, if any, for one of a kind
units located in the manufacturers facility and operated by employees of
the manufacturer in the EU?
All responses are appreciated.
Regards
Joe Martin
