The E-mark certification has been established by the Economic Commission for Europe (ECE), which now consists of 56 members, including the European Union members, Eastern Europe, Southern Europe, Canada, the Central Asian republics, Israel and the USA. The E-Mark is an approval marking that indicates the automotive product meets the requirements of the ECE regulations, and applies to a wide range of products, such as the car chargers, car lamps, car air pump, car fans, car TV / stereo, automotive power tools, windshields, seat belts, headlights, etc.

All tests should be performed in an accredited test institution within the ECE member states. In addition, the government of the ECE members should be the issuing authorisation unit with their own series, numbered respectively. Therefore, in general the ECE members will accept the test report and certificate that is in compliance with ECE regulations. That is, an automotive product that is E-mark certified in one ECE member country can be sold in the other ECE member countries without additional approvals.

Taking this issue seriously Brickom has had the Brickcom MD series mini dome cameras E-mark certified (E9, with 9 indicating it was approved in Spain). Along with the IP67 and IK10 and EN50155 certification approvals, the Brickcom MD series mini dome cameras are now an approved and ideal camera choice for automotive applications.
