Certification test marks
Certified products are identified by one or more
certification test marks from accredited testing laboratories.
The certification test marks are located on or near the data
plate. Each certification test mark means that the product
and its safety-critical components conform to the relevant
national safety standards as reviewed by that testing
laboratory. Hypertherm places a certification test mark on
its products only after that product is manufactured with
safety-critical components that have been authorized by
the accredited testing laboratory.
Once the product has left the Hypertherm factory, the
certification test marks are invalidated if any of the following
occurs:
• The product is significantly modified in a manner that
creates a hazard or non-conformance.
• Safety-critical components are replaced with
unauthorized spare parts.
• Any unauthorized assembly or accessory that uses or
generates a hazardous voltage is added.
• There is any tampering with a safety circuit or other
feature that is designed into the product as part of the
certification.
CE marking constitutes a manufacturer’s declaration of
conformity to applicable European directives and
standards. Only those versions of Hypertherm products
with a CE Marking located on or near the data plate have
been tested for compliance with the European Low Voltage
Directive and the European EMC Directive. EMC filters
needed to comply with the European EMC Directive are
incorporated within versions of the power supply with a
CE Marking.
Differences in national standards
Differences in standards include, but are not limited to:
• Voltages
• Plug and cord ratings
• Language requirements
• Electromagnetic compatibility requirements
