Marquage des équipements électriques et électroniques pour la collecte séparée des déchets EEE (DEEE)

Le présent document spécifie un marquage — des équipements électriques et électroniques (EEE) en vue de réduire au minimum l'élimination des déchets EEE (DEEE) avec les déchets non triés et de faciliter leur collecte séparée. NOTE 1 Ceci conformément à l’Article 14(4) de la directive 2012/19/UE (DEEE, refonte;) — qui sert à identifier clairement le producteur de l’équipement et — que cet équipement a été mis sur le marché après le 13 août 2005. NOTE 2 Ceci conformément aux Articles 12(3) et 15(2) de la directive 2012/19/UE (DEEE, refonte); — qui s'applique aux catégories d'équipements électriques et électroniques soumis à la collecte, au traitement, à la valorisation et à l'élimination respectueuse de l'environnement des DEEE, tels que définis par les réglementations européennes et nationales, à condition que l'équipement concerné ne soit pas intégré à un autre type d'équipement exclu du domaine d'application des réglementations susmentionnées. NOTE 3 Ceci conformément à l’Article 2 et aux Annexes I à IV de la directive 2012/19/UE (DEEE, refonte) [1] La définition d'un support technique pour l’identification du producteur par le biais d’une machine, tel qu'un code-barres, un support de données électronique ou une micropuce, n'est pas couverte par le présent document.

Označevanje električne in elektronske opreme glede na ločeno zbiranje odpadkov EEE (WEEE)

Ta dokument določa označevanje:
– električne in elektronske opreme (EEE) z namenom, da se zmanjša odlaganje odpadne električne in elektronske opreme (WEEE) kot nesortiranega odpadka ter omogoči njeno ločeno zbiranje.
OPOMBA 1: To je v skladu s členom 14(4) Direktive 2012/19/EU o odpadni električni in elektronski opremi (prenovljena različica);
– pri katerem sta jasno navedena proizvajalec opreme in
– datum, ko je bila oprema dana na trg, tj. po 13. avgustu 2005.
OPOMBA 2: To je v skladu v členoma 12(3) in 15(2) Direktive 2012/19/EU o odpadni električni in elektronski opremi (prenovljena različica);
– ki se uporablja za kategorije električne in elektronske opreme, za katere veljajo zbiranje, obdelava, predelava ter okolju prijazno odlaganje odpadne električne in elektronske opreme, kot to določajo evropski in nacionalni predpisi, pod pogojem, da zadevna oprema ni del druge vrste opreme, ki ne spada na področje uporabe zgoraj omenjenih predpisov.
OPOMBA 3: To je v skladu s členom 2 in dodatki I–IV Direktive 2012/19/EU [1] o odpadni električni in elektronski opremi (prenovljena različica) [1].
Opredelitev tehničnega nosilca za strojno prepoznavanje proizvajalca, kot je črtna koda, elektronski nosilec podatkov ali mikročip, v tem dokumentu ni zajeta.

Introduction
This document aims to assist the marking of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with a view to
minimizing the disposal of waste EEE (WEEE) as unsorted waste and to facilitating its separate collection. For
this purpose it specifies the different possibilities to use the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol combined with
the black bar and / or manufacturing date supporting the identification when the equipment was put on the
market.
This document supports the respective essential requirements of Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE, recast). This
document does not constitute a request for design change for existing products specified to meet the previous
edition of the standard or the former Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE).
This document supports the objectives of the Community's environment policy. These aim to preserve, protect
and improve the quality of the environment, protect human health and utilize natural resources prudently and
rationally.
