The SIMATIC programmable controller system is not a machine as defined in
the EU Machinery Directive. There is therefore no declaration of conformity
for SIMATIC with regard to the EU Machinery Directive 89/392/EEC.
The EU Machinery Directive 89/392/EEC regulates requirements relating to
machinery. A machine is defined here as an assembly of linked parts or
components (see also EN 292-1, Paragraph 3.1).
SIMATIC is part of the electrical equipment of a machine and must therefore be
included by the machine manufacturer in the declaration of conformity
procedure.
The EN 60204-1 standard (Safety of Machinery, Electrical Equipment of
Machines, Part 1, Specification for General Requirements) applies for electrical
equipment of machinery.
The table below is designed to help you with the declaration of conformity and
to show which criteria apply to SIMATIC according to EN 60204-1 (as of June
1993).
