18.1 Pressure equipment directive
Tecfluid S.A. have subjected the series LT of level gauges to a conformity assessment
method for the pressure equipment directive, specifically according to module H (full quality
assurance).
Conformity with the directive is reflected by the CE marking in each pressure equipment and
by the written declaration of conformity. The CE marking is accompanied by the identification
number of the notified body involved at the production control phase.
The marking of the equipment takes into account the fluid type, the group of fluid and the
category, for example: G1 CATI
G Gases and vapours
1 Group of liquids 1
CATI Category I
Devices that, due to their size, are not subject to conformity assessment, are considered
outside the scope of the directive and therefore they have not the CE mark according to
pressure directive. These devices are subject to applicable sound engineering practice
(SEP).
This equipment is considered as being a pressure accessory and NOT a safety accessory as
defined in the 2014/68/EU directive, Article 2, paragraph 4.

certification procedure according to the technical regulations of the
Customs Union of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU).
This Certificate is an official document confirming the quality of production with the
standards on the territory of the Customs Union, particularly regarding safety requirements
and electromagnetic compatibility.
