Analysis of compliance certification for Sunlight Readable Display in the EU market

1.EU access cornerstone: three core certification systems

CE certification – the “EU ID card” for market access

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): must pass radiated emission (EN 55032) and anti-interference tests (EN 61000) to ensure no interference between devices.

Electrical safety (LVD): Comply with EN 62368 standards to verify leakage protection, insulation performance and high temperature tolerance.

RoHS: restrict 10 types of substances such as lead and mercury, and require a third-party test report (limit ≤ 0.1%).

Energy efficiency (ErP): meet EN 50564 standards, power consumption must be marked with energy efficiency levels and adapt to EU energy-saving policies.

RED directive – mandatory threshold for wireless functions
Displays with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth modules must pass radio frequency safety (EN 300 328) and spectrum management (EN 301 489) tests, and be affixed with the number of the notified body.

‌EN 62368-1 – Enhanced Standard for Outdoor Scenes‌
For environments such as lightning strikes, humidity, and extreme temperatures, additional IP67 protection level verification and salt spray corrosion tests must be passed.

II. Special requirements for outdoor scenes: dual upgrades in performance and safety
‌Environmental tolerance‌: Data for the operating temperature range of -30℃ to +70℃ must be provided, and a 72-hour wet heat cycle test report must be passed.

‌Optical performance‌: It is recommended to choose a display screen that has passed TUV certification to ensure eye protection functions such as automatic brightness adjustment (＞2000cd/m²) and blue light filtering (wavelength ＜450nm)46.

‌Structural stability‌: The wind pressure resistance design must comply with the EN 1991-1-4 standard (wind speed ≥28m/s), and the bracket load-bearing test must reach more than 3 times the weight of the screen.

III. Compliance practice path: four steps to lock in efficient procurement
‌Qualification pre-examination‌: Suppliers are required to provide CE technical documents (including test reports, risk assessment records), RoHS substance lists, and a 10-year archiving commitment58. ‌Production traceability‌: Priority is given to companies that have obtained the “Gold Certification” of the EU China Committee. Their certificates contain blockchain anti-counterfeiting labels and are directly connected to the 28-country government procurement whitelist1.
‌Acceptance testing‌: Sampling after arrival to verify IP protection level, wireless signal strength and energy efficiency label consistency.
‌Continuous compliance‌: Establish a regulatory monitoring mechanism and pay attention to the 2025 RoHS new substance list and ErP directive revision dynamics
