The stupid CE certification obviously has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the unit certified. AP, Dräger, OMG have had it from the beginning, yet there have been plenty of accidents on them, including fatalities.

All that the damn stamp means is that the unit can be legally sold in Europe.

And that's it.

So the discussion is really about two separate things:

1.) Does this unit (and this specification) have a CE certification?

2.) What does that mean, and is this of any significance for me as a user/dealer?

So, from all I know (and what you can also read in this thread) the first point has been answered (yes, there are CE certification documents) so let's move on to the second point:

• is this satisfactory?

I guess anybody interested in this unit will have to answer this for themselves.
