TR CU 010/2011 Certification Guide

Overview

This Technical Regulation applies to the certification of machines and/or equipment to be operated in Russia and in the common customs territory of the EAEU (EurAsian Economic Union).

It sets the minimum necessary safety requirements for machines and equipment to be followed during their development, design, manufacture, transportation, storage, installation and operation.

The requirements of TR CU 010/2011 have been coordinated with the requirements of the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, although they are not identical.

A Declaration or Certificate of Conformity are the only documents confirming compliance of machines and/or equipment with the requirements of TR CU 010/2011.
