Re: DOCOPOCOSS for EN 60065 : 1998
Scott To presume compliance by applying the harmonised standard, the manufacturer need to "place the product on the market" before the DOCOPOCOSS. Have a look at section 2.3 of Guide to the implementation of directives based on the New Approach and the Global Approach (the "blue book")http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/ne approach/legislation/guide/document/1999_1282_en.pdf regards Charlie > A question about the Date of Cessation of Presumption of Conformity of > the Superseded Standard. > > If a product is tested to (and the CB Report indicates) EN 60065 : 1998, > when is the last time that product can be sold to a customer?

No, you must 'place [them] on the market' before the cut-off date, by putting them into the distribution chain. Depending on how you market the products, your distributors may agree to take them into stock, but ownership must be transferred from your company to them. You may feel that this is not sensible, but if it were not so, abuse of the docopocoss would be easy. There seem to be no other way of doing it. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.

DOCOPOCOSS for EN 60065 : 1998
A question about the Date of Cessation of Presumption of Conformity of the Superseded Standard. If a product is tested to (and the CB Report indicates) EN 60065 : 1998, when is the last time that product can be sold to a customer? More specifically, if a product is near it's end of life by that date, can we build ahead and ship to the warehouse before that date? We will not be able to sell all to customers by that date, but they would be built and in storage. So is it still "legal" to sell these pre-built products to customers after the date? I know the date is March 1, 2007. We have some products close to end of life, say EOL by June 2007. Can we build that extra few months of sales and put them in storage in February and then still sell them after March? We're not talking RoHS here, only and specifically safety and the CE Mark. As always, I look forward to your expert replies, and I thank you in advance.
