Group members,
I'm working with a company that manufactures an X-ray source
sub-assembly. This product includes the X-Ray source and an electronic
interface controller. The intended use is for the customer to
incorporate the device into automated laboratory equipment that will be
subject to the machinery directive.
This X-ray source includes a motor-driven shutter which is under computer
control. The shutter is enclosed within a housing and is not operator
accessible.
This company has informed me that one of their German competitors claims
that their very similar sub-assembly complies with the MD.
Does the fact that the device includes an internal motor-driven shutter
bring it into the scope of the MD? That seems to be a stretch to me.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Carl
