M/BC/CEN/90/3 - n-a weighing instruments

Non-automatic weighing instruments

Mandate M/BC/CEN/90/3 concerns the standardisation of non-automatic weighing instruments. The mandate involves a decision on the approval or disapproval related to this standardisation request. It is linked to resolution CEN/BT C73/1990 and is directed to CEN for developing or updating relevant standards to ensure harmonisation, safety, and reliability of non-automatic weighing instruments within the European market.

Purpose

The mandate M/BC/CEN/90/3 pertains to non-automatic weighing instruments. It aims to establish a standardized framework for these instruments within the European Union to ensure accuracy, safety, and reliability in their design and use.

Standardisation request

The mandate requests the development of harmonized European standards for non-automatic weighing instruments. These standards are intended to support compliance with relevant EU legislation and facilitate the mutual acceptance of these instruments in the internal market.

Expected deliverables

Expected deliverables likely include:

  • Detailed technical standards specifying requirements for design, construction, and performance of non-automatic weighing instruments.
  • Test methods to verify compliance with the standards.
  • Guidelines for conformity assessment to assist manufacturers and regulators.

Context

This mandate was addressed by CEN, the European Committee for Standardisation, as indicated by the resolution reference CEN/BT C73/1990. Given the lack of specific details, it relates broadly to the regulation and standardisation efforts to create a unified market for weighing instruments that do not operate automatically, supporting legal metrology and trade fairness within the EU.

This mandate covers the standardisation of non-automatic weighing instruments, which typically include devices used for measuring weight where the operation is not fully automatic. The scope involves establishing technical specifications and requirements to ensure accuracy, reliability, and safety in weighing instruments used across various sectors such as trade, industry, and healthcare.

Frequently Asked Questions

A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.

M/BC/CEN/90/3 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Non-automatic weighing instruments". Non-automatic weighing instruments There are 4 standards developed under this mandate.

Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
