European foreword
This document (prEN 50419:2021) has been prepared by CLC/TC 111X “Environment”.
This document is currently submitted to the CENELEC Enquiry.
The following dates are proposed:
• latest date by which the existence of this (doa) dor + 6 months
document has to be announced at national
level
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) dor + 12 months
implemented at national level by publication of
an identical national standard or by
endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) dor + 36 months (to
conflicting with this document have to be be confirmed or
withdrawn modified when voting)

This document will supersede EN 50419:2006 and all of its amendments and corrigenda (if any).

EN 50419:2021 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 50419:2006:

• The previous edition specified the marking requirements as described in 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and directly

refers to this Directive. 2002/96/EC (WEEE) which was meanwhile replaced by 2012/19/EU (WEEE,

recast). This European Standard presents the marking requirements independent from a regulation

version.

• The revision clarifies the different possibilities of use the crossed-out wheeled bin combined with the black

bar and / or manufacturing date.

This document has been prepared under mandate M/336 given to CENELEC by the European Commission

and the European Free Trade Association, and supports the essential requirements of Directive 2012/19/EU.

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

standard 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.
