Why Do DMP Products Not Fall Under The Machinery Directive BS EN 292 Of CE?
The CE directive BS EN 292 does not apply to non-powered equipment such as DMP products. Since our products can only be used to position devices where the operator provides all moving force (meaning that the motion of the product will stop immediately when the operator ceases to apply force to the product), our products do not fall under the definition of machinery as defined in BS EN 292. The CE directive’s definition of a “machine” implies that it has controls available to an operator that instigate powered-operation (whether it be pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical or electrical), which results in motion. Consequently, there is no CE Marking on DMP equipment.
