CE Marking
Ensuring Conformity of Our Products in the European Marketplace
CE marking is a crucial step in ensuring that our products meet the safety and quality standards set by the European Union. SIMEL is proud to place the CE mark on its motors, guaranteeing customers products that strictly comply with safety, environmental protection and health requirements.
What is CE Marking?
CE marking indicates that a product meets all applicable EU legislative requirements to be sold in Europe. This marking is essential to guarantee the free movement of products within the European single market, ensuring that they are safe and comply with specific health, safety and environmental directives.
Why is it Important?
For customers, CE marking is a guarantee of compliance with standards in terms of quality and safety. Buying a CE marked product means you can count on a motor designed and built according to precise regulations, which aim to protect your safety and product integrity.
CE Marking Requirements
CE marking is not simply a mark on the product, but the result of a complex process that includes:
- Compliance with Directives: Compliance with all applicable directives, such as the Machinery Directive, the Low Voltage Directive and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.
- Technical Documentation: Preparation of a technical file demonstrating the product’s compliance with the essential requirements.
- Declaration of Conformity: Formal declaration by SIMEL certifying the conformity of the product.
The Compliance Process
SIMEL has developed a comprehensive quality management system to ensure that each motor fully complies with CE marking requirements. Our process includes:
