CE Marking
1 European Union EC Directive
The European Union EC Directive was issued for the products to be distributed in EU (European Union)
region to protect the health and secure the safety of the users and consumers of the products. It aims at the
respect and satisfaction of the new approach directive issued by the European Commission and security of
the free distribution of the products within the EU region. Accordingly, the corporations related to the export to
or having any production base in EU countries, have to conform to the conditions for the CE Marking as the
essential condition.
(1) Low Voltage Directive
ACON and PCON have been designed to comply with the low voltage directive as a single unit.
(2) EMC Directive
For the EMC Directive, the subjects are all components including the control units and electric and
electronic components used in the controller and equipment manufactured by our company. We have
determined the connection and installation model (conditions) for the controllers, actuators and
peripheral components and demonstrated the compliance with the standards related to the EMC
Directive using the above model.
