CE Mark Compliance Information

Explanatory
Note
Consumer products (those sold to the public through retail) are designed to be
installed by “untrained” personnel in the standard functional environment (e.g. PC
enclosure), using only basic tools and a provided user’s manual. Additional
adjustments to achieve EMC or LVD compliance are not required. Such products
must bear the CE mark logo.
GE products are industrial grade products and are not available for sale through
retail. These products require trained personnel for installation and may require
additional adjustments, configuration or placement in a protective environment to
meet requirements of EMC or LV Directives. Such products typically are not
required to bear the CE mark logo.
Example
A clear distinction exists between a digital input card for a PC and the D20 digital
input module. A PC digital input card is a consumer product, sold over the counter.
An untrained person can install this card without specialized knowledge of EMC
using only the supplied user ‘s manual. This PC digital input card should meet the
intent of EMC & LV Directives when installed in a standard PC enclosure, for which
it was designed and tested. Whereas, the D20 digital input module can be installed in
numerous configurations and environments but by trained personnel.
