The Wheelmark
The Simrad E5024 ECDIS system is produced and tested in accordance with the European
Council Directive 96/98/EC of December 1996 on marine equipment, as last amended by
directive 2013/52/EU. This means that the system complies with the highest level of tests for
nonmilitary marine electronic navigation equipment existing today.
The Marine Equipment Directive 96/98/EC (MED), as amended by 2013/52/EU for ships
flying EU or EFTA flags, applies to all new ships, to existing ships not previously carrying such
equipment, and to ships having their equipment replaced.
This means that all system components covered by annex A1 must be type-approved
accordingly and must carry the Wheelmark, which is a symbol of conformity with the Marine
Equipment Directive.
Navico has no responsibility for the incorrect installation or use of the ECDIS system, so
it is essential for the person in charge of the installation to be familiar with the relevant
requirements as well as with the contents of the manuals, which covers correct installation
and use.
