What are the European Directives?
The Directives are created to allow manufacturers to trade freely within the EEC territory through technical harmonisation of
entire product sectors, and by guaranteeing a high level of protection of public interest objectives. This is done by creating a
CE marking
, a "trade symbol" showing that the technical requirements and those for safety and health are met.
Business and industry are given a wide choice of how to meet their obligations. The European standards bodies have the task
of drawing up technical specifications. Compliance with harmonised standards, of which the reference numbers have been
published in the Official Journal and which have been transposed into national standards, provides presumption of conformity
to the corresponding essential requirements of the EC directives.
Manufacturers are free to choose any other technical solution that provides compliance with the essential requirements.
Compliance with harmonised standards remains voluntary and offers one route to complying with these essential
requirements.
The Declaration of Conformity signed by the companies nominated Compliance Officer is certification that the apparatus to
which it refers meets the requirements of
all the relevant European directives.
Compliance with harmonised standards provides a "presumption of conformity” and is the route which has been adopted by
Parker Hannifin Manufacturing.
