Good morning

 

I'm not at all an expert of marine equipment safety, but  here are a few
comments:

 

-        Annex I of the Marine Equipment Directive (and its predecessor)
calls for the Wheelmark, and not the CE marking.

 

Therefore you could check out the Notified Bodies for that Directive.

 

-       As for other equipment, I think it might be that equipment safety is
also addressed more by the relevant maritime classification societies
(Lloyds Register of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas, American Bureau of
Shipping, Germanische Lloyd, etc) as they are ones that effectively permit
what can and cannot be installed on the ships which they register and
insure. So you might want to check some of those out as well because they
might allow the "normal" equipment safety standards to be used but with
additional modifications to deal with the more severe maritime environmental
conditions.

 

-       One standard that does seem to come up a lot is IEC/EN 60945
"Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - General
requirements - Methods of testing and required test results"

Subject: [PSES] Marine Equipment for CE

 

Hi,

 

I found the Marine Equipment Directive 2014/90/EU.

 

For Standards it refers to IMO Standards.  In searching through the IMO
Standards, they seem to be more guidelines for how to use equipment vs
evaluating the equipment for safety, etc. 

 

Any guidance in finding Standards for Marine Equipment would be appreciated.

 

Best Regards,

 

John Allen
