About us
Certificates
Our products are used around the globe in processes where quality, safety and the adherence to rigid standards are crucial. Especially the food and pharmaceutical industries need to meet extremely high requirements for operating safety and hygiene.
To make it possible for our customers to comply with these standards, NEGELE products are developed in accordance with internationally recognized standards and the guidelines for Hygienic Design.
Hygienic Design describes the measures necessary to make parts, components and production systems cleanable in an effective and user-friendly manner, and is thus an important building block for the quality assurance of your products.
NEGELE therefore offers the full set of certificates, appraisals and conformity declarations required for process measurement equipment:
EHEDG-certificate
A hygiene certificate of the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) for which the cleanability of a measurement point is checked in a practical examination. Our EHEDG appraisals and certificates were created by TU München at Weihenstephan.
3-A TPV (Third Party Verification)
The 3-A Sanitary Standards Inc. publishes Standard 74-03, which governs the design of sensor parts that come in contact with the media. This standard is in common use in dairies in North America and is of growing importance in Europe and Asia.
FDA
Materials awarded this certificate are suitable for direct contact with foodstuffs and pharmaceutical products without restriction. The parts of our sensors that come into contact with the media are made exclusively of FDA-approved materials.
Inspection certificate as per DIN EN 10204: 2005
The inspection certificates specified in this standard verify that the metal products we deliver comply with the stipulations made in the order. Inspection certificate 3.1 (formerly also referred to as the material certificate or the 3.1B certificate) that you obtain from us verifies the composition and inspection of the raw materials in our products that come into contact with the media.
USP CLASS IV:
Materials in compliance with USP Class VI are suitable for safe implantation in the human body. This standard currently places the most stringent demands on material safety and is becoming increasingly important in the pharmaceutical industry.
The product information we provide for our sensors and components specifies the standards according to which these products have been tested and certified. We also offer country-specific approvals such as "GOST-R" or "CCC" for a growing number of products.
