Chassis- and Component-Level Certifications
Ensure that the chassis and certain components; such as the power supply, peripheral
drives, wiring, and cables; are components certified for the country or market where
used. Agency certification marks on the product are proof of certification. Typical
product certifications include:
In Europe
The CE mark indicates compliance with all applicable European requirements. If the
chassis and other components are not properly CE marked, a supplier’s Declaration of
Conformity statement to the European EMC directive, Low Voltage directive (as
applicable), and ROHS directive, should be obtained. Additionally, other directives,
such as the Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment (R&TTE) directive may
also apply depending on product features.
In the United States
A certification mark by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) such as UL,
CSA, or ETL signifies compliance with safety requirements. Wiring and cables must
also be UL listed or recognized and suitable for the intended use. The FCC Class B
logo for home or office use signifies compliance with electromagnetic interference
(EMI) requirements.
In Canada
A nationally recognized certification mark such as CSA or cUL signifies compliance with
safety requirements. The Industry Canada statement on page 82 of this product guide
de
monstrates compliance with Canadian EMC regulations.
