New EU regulations come into force, changes in conformity declarations and labelling
As of 04.20.2016 the EU new standards apply, in particular for placing scales on the EU market.
The following relevant directives are affected by the this date:
- Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU
- EMC Directive 2014/30/EU
- ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
- Measuring Instruments Directive 2014/32/EU
- Directive to non-automatic weighing 2014/31/EU
- Directive on explosives for civil uses 2014/28/EU
Impact on "verified" Scales
The amendments to the regulations also mean that devices that are "verified", starting from 20.04.2016 are labelled in a new way.
Furthermore, the declaration of conformity comes with a new feel - with only slightly different content.
