Hi Kim,
Within one of the Annexes of the 60950 Standard regarding National Deviations,
used to be specified as follows:
Germany ( Gesetz über technische Arbeitsmittel (Gerätesicherheitsgesetz) [
Law on technical labour equipment{Equipment safety law}], of 23rd October
1992, Article 3, 3rd paragraph, 2nd sentence, together with the” Allgemeine
Verwaltungsvorschrift zur Durchführung des Zweiten Abschnitts des
Gerätesicherheitsgesetzes” [ General administrative regulation on the
Second Section of the Equipment safety law], of 10th January 1996, article 2,
4th paragraph, item 2).
Direction for use with rules to prevent certain hazards for (among others)
maintenance of the
Technical labour equipment, also for imported technical labour equipment shall
be written in the German language.
NOTE : Of this requirement, rules for use even only by service personnel are
not exempted
I am sure that the German Law is still in place….
Respectfully yours,
Constantin

Hi all
We have been met with requirements from Germany that all safety information
shall be in German, or else the CE marking is invalid. The product is a laser
product under the following standards; EN 60825 and EN 61010. None of these
standards have any requirements like this.
Is there a specific German requirements and what does it include.
Are there any other countries with same kind of requirements?
Best regards,
Mr. Kim Boll Jensen
