Hi Group, I have been given a project to obtain the CE Mark for a particular product. However, I know, as my past and painful experiences to date have shown, that the marketing department will want to ship this product worldwide. In my opinion, the product will eventually be shipped to North and South America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia. So I have decided to, with co-operation from my design engineers, obtain Approvals on a global basis. This will be my first attempt. You never know, if I do it well maybe this will help my next salary review (sorry just dreaming!). I know this may be a small question with a lot of answers required, but if you as an individual could answer their particular area of expertise then I would not take up too much of your time. I can assure you it would be very much appreciated. I am willing to divide my expected salary increase to all those who participate (Note: 10% of nothing = 0!!)
For My Input Product Safety EN60950 with National deviations. UL or CSA marking application based on the CB report? 1. I intend to use the Certified Body (CB) scheme to obtain a CB Report and Certificate. It currently has 42 member countries. 2. Submit a fully configured product, with all options identified, to my chosen "CB" Test House, as identified by the NCB. 3. Choose a Power Supply that already has global approvals. 4. Choose a VGA display that already has global approvals. EMC ITE = EN55022 and EN55024 (EEA), Self verification to CFR 47 Part 15 (USA), ICES-003 (Canada) based on the EN standards? SRD = EN 301 489-1 & -3 GSM = EN 301 489-1 & -7 1. Although the CB scheme does not include EMC, I intend to ask the Test House for a similar CB Report which may or may not be acceptable to other Countries outside the EEA. However, I think it would help! Communications (The most difficult!) PSTN = CTR21 (EEA only), FCC Part 68 (USA) and ICES-003 (Canada) but do I need both USA and Canada? Other Regions? GSM = CTR 5 (EEA only) Other Regions? SRD = EN 300 220-3 (EEA only) Other Regions? Dial and leased line modem? Ethernet? Mobitex? CDMA? TDMA? The Main Product Details * Switching power supply supporting 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz * ΒΌ VGA monochrome display (color optional) * PCMCIA peripheral port * 10BaseT ethernet port * Dial and leased line modem * RF modem (optional Mobitex, GSM, CDMA, TDMA) THANKS!!
