Fundamentals of CE Marking

Free Workshop!

Date and Time:

February 24
, 2012  
8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Location:
Washington Laboratories
4840 Winchester Blvd
Suite 4
Frederick MD 21703 (Google Map)
301-216-1500

Join the experts at Washington Laboratories with a deep dive into the requirements for Europe. This workshop, following on the Export This! presentation on February 9th, will examine the requirements for EMC, Product Safety, Radio and related regulatory requirements for complying with the Directives that govern equipment compliance for the 300million+ population of the EU.

In the nearly 20 years since the establishment of the CE Marking for products, trade with the European Union has bloomed. This is due in large part to the harmonization of technical requirements and the internationalization of the product standards. This has opened the door for US manufacturers to place their products into the global swirl of trade.

Description:

The enactment of common requirements for electrical and electronics products has created higher quality, safer and more effective products. The requirements have been aimed at Regulatory requirements, but have had a large effect on device functionality and efficacy. Good Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) design minimizes the threat of interference and ensures proper functioning in the environment. Product safety principles that are integrated into the design provide protection against shock, fire and related hazards. The explosion of wireless devices requires strict adherence to effective use of the spectrum.

All of these critical aspects of modern electronics design and conformance will be addressed during this effective and informative half-day session. Join us for this great overview and a FREE Lunch, too!
