The BenchCel Microplate Handler is considered
partly completed machinery as defined by the Machinery Directive of the European Union. Therefore, the
BenchCel Microplate Handler is provided with a Declaration of Incorporation and no CE marking. The
BenchCel Microplate Handler is intended to be integrated into a conforming completed machine (workstation). A customer in the European Union (EU) that acquires a standalone
BenchCel Microplate Handler is responsible for this integration and for CE marking the completed workstation. The
BenchCel Microplate Handler is designed to comply with the standards listed in the table below.
Unless specifically requested by the customer, BenchCel Workstations provided by
Agilent Technologies are configured to conform to the Machinery Directive and bear the CE marking. The Declaration of Conformity shipped with the
BenchCel Workstation describes the specific configuration that has been evaluated for conformity. Any deviations from the specified configuration may invalidate the Declaration of Conformity. See the Declaration of Conformity for details.
An EU customer that requests Agilent Technologies to provide a nonconforming
BenchCel Workstation must assume responsibility as the manufacturer for completing the workstation in conformity with the applicable directives, including the Machinery Directive. In the case of a nonconforming
BenchCel Workstation, each component that
Agilent Technologies supplies will carry a Declaration of Conformity or Declaration of Incorporation, as appropriate, to be used by the manufacturer to compile the technical construction file.
If the BenchCel Microplate Handler causes interference with radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the device off and on, try one or more of the following measures:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Agilent Technologies could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
