Mechanics / Mech Engineering
From a machine manual:
Die Inbetriebnahme dieser Maschine/ des Maschinenteils ist, solange untersagt, bis festgestellt wurde, dass die Maschine in die sie eingebaut werden soll, den Bestimmungen der EG-Maschinenrichtlinie entspricht.
Confused about the sentence structure and translation...especially the middle part starting with "...ist, solange untersagt, bis..."

You will probably find a way tp phrase this more elegantly( using *is subject to* etc.)
hope this helped a bit.
The operation of this equipment/equipment part is subject to
