We are the first certified company in Europe to perform the EC verification for automatic and non-automatic weigh scales. Benefit from our knowledge. We can be available for assistance during the preparation or even for the calibration as per dedicated national regulations.
From the 4th quarter of 2010 Feige Filling’s own service technicians are
able to carry out the manufacturer’s initial calibration for Feige
weigh scales.
As
from today, immediately after the machine’s test run, the
CE-calibration of non-automatic scales and fully automatic scales of
brand new Feige Filling machines and completed weigh scale refits can be
done in a quick and uncomplicated way by specially trained accredited
Feige Filling personnel!
The final customer has the advantage
that no additional personnel have to attend the calibration and the
arrangement and coordination with the local W & M authority
(Standards Department) is avoided. This saves time and costs.
Feige Filling takes over the full responsibility for the organisation and performance of the CE-calibration.
At
t
he same time there can be scheduled further services, as e.g.
inspection, maintenance, training or installation of spare parts without
incurring the costs of another visit.
The legal basis for the
„manufacturer’s initial calibration“ is a specified „EC-calibration“ for
non-automatic scales and fully automatic scales. The basis of the
procedure for the initial circulation of scales in Europe are the
EC-directives:
1. Directive 2009/23/CE, regulates the putting into circulation of „non-automatic scales(NSW)“.
The transition period has already expired since 2002.
2.
Directive 2004/22/CE, regulates the putting into circulation „fully
automatic scales (SWA). This directive is often designated as “MID”.
(MID = Measuring Instruments Directive)
The transition period for this directive ends in 2016!
By
the resolution of the Council (93/456/EEC) the manufacturer himself can
perform the CE-calibration as per “module D” for the initial
circulation of the scales in Europe.
After the successful manufacturer’s initial calibration Feige will declare CE conformity and filling operation can start.
