Introduction to Motor CE Certification

Motor CE certification
Motors are the most typical products in industrial society, and the manufacturing capacity of motors often reflects the manufacturing level of a country. The motor is an important mechanical product that provides power for various equipment in the electric age, and it is also the core component of many mechanical products. CE certification of motor products can not only guarantee the safety of consumers, but also enhance the market competitiveness of the products themselves.
Basic information required for EU CE certification of motors:
1 Customer application form (English: product name CE certification, model CE certification, applicant/manufacturer address).
2 Product model and detailed technical parameters
3 Detailed pictures of components and overall structure
4 Electrical schematic diagrams (electrical products)
5 Mechanical assembly drawings and drawings of key components
6 Nameplates (fonts, CE symbols).
7 Product instruction manual, installation and maintenance (English version).
8 Parts list (product name CE certification, manufacturer)
EN 60034-1 is the basic standard for rotating electrical machines, which stipulates the basic performance and technical requirements of the electrical machine. EN 60034 specifies the test items for CE certification of motors:
1. Shell protection;
2. Temperature rise;
3. Electric clearance and creepage distance; 4.
Grounding;
5. Insulation resistance and electric strength
;
Current;
8. Voltage change;
9. Minimum torque;
10. Shaft end;
11. Other test items.
Motor CE certification mainly involves the low voltage directive LVD and electromagnetic compatibility directive EMC in CE certification:
1. Low Voltage Directive (Low Voltage Directive, 2006/95/EC) was formulated in 1973. LVD is applicable to all motor products whose functional voltage range is AC 50~1000V and DC 75~1500V; 2. Motor products do
EMC It is to ensure that the equipment can work normally in the electromagnetic environment where it is located without causing interference to other systems and equipment. The 89/336/EEC Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive was promulgated on May 1, 1989, and the current EMC Directive is numbered 2014/30/EU.
There are many types of motors, and the applicable CE certification standards for motors used in different products are also different. For example, EN 60252 is applicable to AC motor capacitors, and EN 60349 is applicable to rotating electrical machines for railway and road vehicles.
The cost of CE certification mainly depends on the selected certification body and the relevant instructions of the product. Different product test items are also quite different. Generally, common products are electronic and electrical products, and common test items are classified into EMC and LVD directives. The cost of CE certification for mechanical products is much higher than that of ordinary products, which involves factory audit procedures and evaluation.
CE certification fees can be applied for developing funds to subsidize
small and medium-sized enterprises. International market development funds project support includes product certification projects. As long as the enterprise meets the application conditions for developing funds, it can apply for project subsidies. The support content is product inspection and testing fees, and other expenses are not supported. Support The ratio is 50%, and the maximum amount is 30,000 yuan/piece. Product certification must be carried out by foreign certification companies or authorized agencies (direct authorization only) that have been audited and registered by the China Certification and Accreditation Administration and the Administration for Industry and Commerce. Each enterprise and each product only supports one certification in one country
CE certification fees and product instructions
CE certification of some products only requires LVD certification, but customers specify that EMC instructions must be followed, and there is a cost gap between the two. To do CE certification, some customers are going to sell in the domestic market, and the purpose of doing CE certification is to promote their products, so they just choose an order at will. CE certification stipulates that its products can be freely circulated in the market of EU member states, and the CE mark can only be affixed after all the instructions contained in its products have passed the testing and certification. CE certification of electrical appliances generally requires LVD and EMC to include machinery directives. Therefore, the cost is completely different, and the CE certification selection instruction should also refer to the customer's opinion and the product's own situation.
