CE markingU.K.

16.—(1) The CE marking shall be accompanied by the identification number of the notified body involved at the production control phase.

(2) Subject to paragraph (3), the CE marking shall be affixed in a visible, easily legible and indelible fashion to each item of pressure equipment referred to in regulation 7, or assembly referred to in regulation 8 which is complete or is in a state permitting final assessment as described in paragraph 3.2 of Schedule 2.

(3) It is not necessary for the CE marking to be affixed to each individual item of pressure equipment making up an assembly as referred to in regulation 8 but individual items of pressure equipment already bearing the CE marking when incorporated into the assembly shall continue to bear that marking.

(4) Subject to paragraph (5), where the pressure equipment or assembly is subject to other Directives covering other aspects which provide for the affixing of the CE marking, the latter shall indicate that the pressure equipment or assembly in question is also presumed to conform to the provisions of those other Directives.

(5) Where one or more of the other Directives referred to in paragraph (4) allow the manufacturer, during a transitional period, to choose which arrangements to apply, the CE marking shall indicate conformity only with the Directives applied by the manufacturer, and in this case, particulars of the Directives applied, as published in the Official Journal of the European Communities, must be given in the documents, notices or instructions required by the Directives and accompanying the pressure equipment or assembly.

(6) The affixing of markings on pressure equipment or an assembly which are likely to mislead third parties as to the meaning or form of the CE marking is prohibited.

(7) Any other marking may be affixed to pressure equipment or an assembly provided that the visibility and legibility of the CE marking is not thereby reduced.
