Fittings: According to manufacturer’s instructions With the receipt of New Approach Directives, the products which apply within their fieldof application must be manufactured in conformity with the relevant and essential requi-
rements that must be met to be put in the market and in service across the European
Community.A presumption of conformity to European New Approach Directives is the affixing of theCE Marking on the product and/or on its instruction manual and/or on the packaging.The Directives that can be applied to TUBIFOR products are the following: Dir. 72/23/CEEreceipt with the Rule Nr. 791 dtd. 18/10/1977 and amended by the Dir. 93/68/CEE related
to the relevant safety standards of electrical material included in the Low Voltage Directive.The CE Marking must be applied since01/01/1996 according to Dir. EMC (89/399/CEE and 93/68/CEE);01/01/1997 according to Dir. LVD (73/23/CEE and 93/68/CEE);TUBIFOR products which apply to Directives bear the CE Marking since the above indica-ted dates.
