CE Certification

European CE certification mark

1 CE certification
CE is the abbreviation of the French, in English means "European Conformity the European Community, in fact, CE or EC languages in many countries in the European Economic Community," the abbreviation of this phrase, the original phrase in English EUROPEAN COMMUNITY abbreviation for the EC in French because the EC is COMMUNATE EUROPEIA, the Italian COMUNITA EUROPEA the Portuguese COMUNIDADE EUROPEIA Spanish COMUNIDADE EUROPE, etc. Therefore, to change the EC the CE.
Products in the EU market "CE" mark is a mandatory certification mark, whether within the EU enterprise products, or other production, in order to free circulation in the EU market, it must be affixed to the "CE" mark to indicate that the product the basic requirements of the EU "technical coordination and standardization of new methods" instruction. This is a mandatory requirement of EU law on the products.
CE Certification - mode
CE certification can be said is the world's most advanced products to meet the assessment mode, which spearheaded the introduction of the modular concept, one for assessment by the assessment module and the assessment process by the evaluation module of the CE mark products. In general, the evaluation module are the following:
A: self-proclaimed self-proclaimed (by the producers, and provide the product key technical information)
B: type of test (product fully tested by the European Notified Body)
C: notified body for the production of factory inspection
D: Notified Body for the factory of production and its quality management system review
E: Notified Body for review of the quality management system for traders and other middlemen
F: notified body for imported into the EU ashore volume product review
G: notified body for the imports of the EU is not the type of test products, including a comprehensive review of the type test
Different instructions for the assessment procedures by which modules do. Such as: the Low Voltage Directive (LVD), Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC) from A; Gas Appliance Directive (GAD) by the BC, BD, BE or BF.
The following do explain in detail:

A. Factory self-control and certification Module A (internal production control)
For simple, high-volume, non-hazardous products, and applies only to the application of European standards of production manufacturers.
2, the factory self-qualified review and self-declaration.
3, technical documents submitted to the national institutions than ten years of on the basis of the available review and inspection to determine whether a product complies with   Directive, producers, and even to provide product design, production and assembly process for inspection.
4, do not need to declare the production process to ensure that products meet the requirements.

B. The factories send samples and technical documentation to its choice of testing agencies for review and testing agency issued the certificate.
Note: Only B is insufficient to constitute the use of CE. Module C (with the type [sample] consistent) + B
Factory for Conformance Statement (certified type consistent), the statement save decade. Module D (production process, quality control) + B:
This mode is concerned about the production process and final product control, factory production in accordance with a method approved by the testing agency (quality system, EN29003), on the basis of this statement of their products for certification consistent (Declaration of Conformity). Module E (product quality control) + B
This model is concerned only with the final product control (EN29003), the rest of the same Module, D.Module F (product testing) + B
Factory to ensure that its production process to ensure that the products meet the requirements for a Declaration of Conformity. Recognized testing agency to verify the compliance of its products through the full inspection or sampling inspection. Testing agency awarded a certificate. ModuleG (individually tested) factory statement complies with Directive requirements, to the testing agency to submit product technical parameters, the testing agency to examine the products one by one, certificates. Module H (comprehensive quality control) mode is concerned about the design, production process and final product control (EN29001). With the Module D + Module, E,. Among them, the mode of F + B, pattern G at particularly high risk products.
3 CE certification - meaning
A, the need to apply for CE certification
CE certification for national products in the European market to trade a uniform technical specifications, simplifying trade procedures. Products of any country into the EU, EFTA CE certification, CE mark affixed on the product. CE certified products to enter the national market of the European Union and European free trade zone passes. CE certification means that the product has reached the security requirements of EU directives; is a commitment of business to consumer, and increase consumer confidence in the products; affixed with the CE mark products will reduce the risk of sales in the European market. These risks include:
● Customs to detain and investigate the risk; ● market oversight body to investigate and deal with the risk;
● risk of allegations by his colleagues, for competitive purposes.
B, the benefits of applying for CE certification
● EU law, regulations and harmonization of standards, not only quantity but also very complex, and therefore an EU designated agencies to help one not only save time, effort, and reduces the risk of a wise move;
● access to the institutions specified by the European Union CE certification, you can maximize access to the trust of consumers and market oversight bodies;
● be effective in preventing the emergence of those irresponsible allegations;
● In the face of litigation, the designated agency of the European Union's CE certification, will become a legally binding technical evidence;
● Once you have been the punishment of the EU countries, the certification bodies will work together with the enterprise risk, thus reducing the risk of the enterprise.
