Good morning all,
Not even sure this is the right place ot ask but I work for a small european company who has river boats. Currently my employer is looking to purchase generators and engines for a new craft (not personal use) from outside the EEA.
It is my understanding so far that those engines and generators will need to be CE certified and marked as such, complete with emissions ino, on the engine plates as per either Machine Directive or RoHS.
Does anyone have any experience of CE marking when it comes to engines/gensets/etc. imported form outside the EEA for commercial use?
I have so far advised against purchasing said equipment whilst I try and dig a little deeper on what is required. Normally CE is only required when "bringing a product to market" but that is also defined as "putting a product into service within the community". Since these would be used on passenger carrying commercial boats in sheltered waters I would like to be as belts and braces abotu this as possible.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
