CE Conformity

  The CE marking of the instruments certi-

fies the conformity with prevailing EU di-

rectives for placing products on the market 

within the European Union. The following 

directive applies:

 

  2014/68/EU (PED)

Pressure measuring instruments by ARMANO Mess-

technik GmbH with a pressure > 0.5 bar are, defined 

as pressure equipment parts, subject to the Pressure 

Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.

Our pressure measuring instruments according to 

DIN EN 837-1 “Bourdon tube pressure gauges” re-

ceive the CE-marking in accordance to the conform-

ity assessment procedure if the upper range value is 

200 bar and above.

Pressure gauges with flange connections > DN 25 or 

1" or thread connection > 1" receive the CE-marking if 

the upper range value is 0.5 bar and above.

The CE-marking is placed on the outside of the case:

Pressure gauges with nominal case sizes 40, 50:

Pressure gauges with nominal case sizes 

63, 80, 100, 160, 250, 4 1/2", 96x96, 144x144:

Measuring instruments with a pressure range > 0.5 bar 

and < 200 bar, which are subject to article 4 paragraph 3, 

do not receive a CE-marking.
