Dear All I am contacting this forum for advice on whether there are any EU CE Marking Exemptions for Military Equipment in France and Germany?
My reason for asking is that the manufacturers of Military off the shelf equipment (MOTS) who are based in France and Germany that we incorporate into some of our Military CE marked products which we manufacture. They have informed us that there is a CE Marking Exemption for Military Equipment in France and Germany for these products. These products are not covered by Article 296 and therefore not specifically exempt CE Marking. This equipment also falls within the scope of the EMC Directive. My view is that Military equipment not covered by Article 296 do not have a general exemption to CE marking EMC requirements and that exemptions for specific applications are contained within certain directives such as 2014/53/EU Radio Equipment and 2011/65/RoHS Directives, but other directives such as EMC and Low Voltage Directives do not contain any exemption. Is my assessment correct? If you prefer please contact me directly at my personal Email address below and I will not post these replies online.
