The product certification body will certify the initial type testing of all relevant characteristics given in Table ZA.1 according to the provisions of 10.2 and for the initial inspection of the factory and of the factory production control, and for the continuous surveillance, assessment and approval of the factory production control, all characteristics shall be of interest to the approved body. The manufacturer shall operate a factory production control system in accordance with the provisions of 10.3.
ZA.3 CE marking
The CE marking symbol in the format specified in the Ell Directive 93/68/EEC shall be shown on the component together with the marking as specified in clause 7. In addition, the CE marking symbol shall appear on the packaging and/or on the accompanying commercial documents, together with the following information:
identification number of the certification body, and
the last two digits of the year in which the marking was affixed, and
the appropriate number of the ЕС-certificate of conformity, and
the number of this standard (EN 12094-1), and
the type of component (i.e. electrical automatic control device or electrical automatic control and delay device), and
the environmental class, and
the number of flooding zones,
per flooding zone: the type of flooding zone (e.g. CO2-high-pressure, CO2-low-pressure, inert gas, Halocarbon gas) and provided options,
the response delay activated condition (i.e. < 3 s),
the response delay triggering of outputs (i.e. < 1 s).
