4. Rating plate and machine classification:
The rating plate provides essential information about the technical features of the machine.
The EC Machinery Safety Regulation requires all machinery operated within the European Economic
Community to have a rating plate indicating its main features, the machine serial number and the
manufacturer's name inscribed in a durable manner.
According to article 2, section g of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE - RD 1644/2008, ‘partly
completed machinery’ means
“an assembly which is almost machinery, but which cannot in itself perform a specific application.
A drive system is partly completed machinery. Partly completed machinery is intended only to be
incorporated into or assembled with other machinery or other partly completed machinery or
equipment, thereby forming machinery to which this Directive applies”
Therefore, the CCB2.0 basic control panel is classified as a “partly completed machinery”
Note: If the CCB2.0 basic control panel is supplied together with a device from the HEF range,
the set is classified as "machine"
