 Provide NB***0, NB***0, and other European Notified Body CE
certification,
European Notified Body and
Approvals
R&TTE Notified Body Service
(*9/5/EC)Â
Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment in Europe must
comply with theÂ
R&TTE
directive , which is a so called \'new approach\'
directive based on the bluebook (and global approach)
principles. The R&TTE directive specifies several assessment
procedures in Annex I to V. We provides R&TTE Annex III and IV
services. Most R&TTE equipment are Short Range Devices (SRD)
and ERC Recommendation ****3 as published by the European
Communications Office (ECO, the former ERO) gives an overview of
different groups of Equipment, categorized in Annexes 1 to *3. The
European Union publishes a list of currentÂ
Harmonized Standards (HS) in the
Official Journals (OJ), including cessation dates where applicable.
The Notified Body provides an Opinion (Letter) based on a Technical
Construction File, containing evidence of complaincy with the
essential requirements (Spectrum efficiency, EMC, health and
safety), technical information, declarations, and user
documentation. The responisble party must issue a DoC and label the
equipment, package correctly. The CE mark may only be placed if the
equipment fufils all applicable directives. In case the frequency
of the equipment is not harmonized throughout the Union, the
equipmnet shall be marked with an addiotnal alert sign and the
radio agencies of all applicable Memberstates shall be notified.
Note that Electrical Safety is always required for R&TTE, since
the directive states that no voltage limits
apply.Â
RF
exposure related standards use limits specified in ERC
Rec ***9/**9/EC. The commission published a R&TTE
guidance document. In Europe, ETSI and CENELEC are the main
standardization bodies.Â
R&TTE Notification ServiceÂ
We provides Notificaiton Service for non-class I Radio Equipment
and takes care of the adminstrational and technical communication
towards the National Radio Agencies (NRA\'s).Â
EMC Notified Body Service (***4/**8/EC)Â
ITE and other electronic or electric equipment in Europe must
comply with the EMC directive ( also a \'new approach\'
directive). We offers EMC Notified Body service. EMC
guidance and the most current
Harmonized Standards for EMC are
published by the commission.Â
EMC Report ReviewÂ
We offers technical review (assessment) of EMC test reports
(following the essential requirements of the European EMC
directive). This type of assessment focuses on verification of the
applicable test standard, test requirements, test modi, execution
of tests, including quality aspects (as normally expected within
ISO ****5). Compared to the Notified Body review, report review is
an assessment of the Test Report(s), whereas a Notified Body may
conduct the assessment on all exhibits whitin the TCF. When the
report review is passed, a certificate for Report Review will be
issued. This service is specifically interesting for manufacturers
who don\'t require full Notified Body involvement, but do require
an independent verification for their test reports (e.g.
specialized equipment), so they can issue their DoC with
confidence.Â
LVD directive (***6/*5/EC)Â
The Low Voltage Directive (LVD) applies for electronic
or electric products not covered by the R&TTE (or other
directives that include Electrical Safety) for ******0VAC or
******0VDC at the In- or Output Ports. Battery powered equipment
outside these ranges are not covered by the LVD directive. We can
assist you with LVD Body service, however LVD body assessment is
not mandatory. Most products are tested and declared compliant by
means of a sef-declaration (DoC). Equipment intended for
international markets mostly follow the IECEE CB scheme. LVD
guidance and the most current Harmonized Standardsfor
LVD are published by the commission.
As alternative to the LVD Body, We can also perform a LVD TCF
Review (using Harmonized Standards). It covers the same
verification aspects without involvement of the Notified Body,
however concluded with an LVD Review Certificate.
Â
We also provide the
CE-LVD,EMC,RoHS,FCC,TELEC,PSE,VCCI,KC,SAA,C-TICK,ETL,CB,GS,SASO,COC,VOC,TER/TIR
and IEC/EN Test Report service.
