ANNEX AU.K.DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY BASED ON INTERNAL PRODUCTION CONTROL
1.The ‘declaration of conformity based on internal production control’ is the conformity assessment procedure whereby the manufacturer fulfils the obligations laid down in this Annex and ensures and declares that the measuring instruments concerned satisfy the appropriate requirements of this Directive.U.K.
Technical documentationU.K.
2.The manufacturer shall establish the technical documentation as described in Article 10. The documentation shall enable assessment of the conformity of the instrument with the appropriate requirements of this Directive. It shall, as far as relevant for such assessment, cover the design, manufacture and operation of the instrument.U.K.
3.The manufacturer shall keep the technical documentation at the disposal of the national authorities for ten years after the last instrument has been manufactured.U.K.
ManufacturingU.K.
4.The manufacturer shall take all measures necessary to ensure conformity of the manufactured instruments with the appropriate requirements of this Directive.U.K.
Written declaration of conformityU.K.
5.1.The manufacturer shall affix the ‘CE’ marking and the supplementary metrology marking to each measuring instrument that satisfies the appropriate requirements of this Directive.U.K.
5.2.A declaration of conformity is drawn up for an instrument model and shall be kept at the disposal of the national authorities for ten years after the last instrument has been manufactured. It shall identify the instrument for which it was drawn up.U.K.
A copy of the declaration shall be supplied with each measuring instrument that is placed on the market. However, this requirement may be interpreted as applying to a batch or consignment rather than individual instruments in those cases where a large number of instruments is delivered to a single user.
Authorised representativeU.K.
6.The manufacturer's obligations contained in paragraphs 3 and 5.2 may be fulfilled, on his behalf and under his responsibility, by his authorised representative.U.K.
Where the manufacturer is not established within the Community and where he does not have an authorised representative, the obligations contained in paragraphs 3 and 5.2 shall be the responsibility of the person who places the instrument on the market.
