Declaration of Conformity
The
C
Mark on Sartorius Equipment
In 1985, the Council of the European
Community approved a resolution con-
cerning a new approach to the technical
harmonization and standardization of
national regulations. The organization for
monitoring compliance with the directives
and standards concerning the
C
marking
is governed in the individual EU Member
States through the implementation of the
EC Directives adopted by the respective
national laws. As of December 1993, the
scope of validity for all EC Directives has
been extended to the Member States of
the European Union and the Signatories of
the Agreement on the European Economic
Area.
Sartorius complies with the EC Directives
and European Standards in order to supply
its customers with weighing instruments
that feature the latest advanced technolo-
gy and provide many years of trouble-free
service.
