LAB Equipment - Safety Testing and Certification

Laboratory, Measurement & Control Equipment: Testing and Certification

PRE-COMPLIANCE:

A quick and cost-effective service designed to eliminate any obvious safety issues. Our wealth of experience and in-depth knowledge of the safety standards for lab, measurement & control equipment have made our ‘pre-compliance’ services particularly popular, especially for manufacturers with products at the design or prototype stage. By visiting us with a sample and drawings etc, we can advise on appropriate test standards and regulations. Any modifications needed in light of the consultation can then be implemented during product development.

SAFETY & EMC TESTING:

For most suppliers of laboratory equipment and related products the CE marking regime is well known. Nemko Ltd’s regular customers know that one of the best ways of showing due diligence is to have Nemko’s test certificates and reports as part of each product’s technical documentation file. Nemko Type Test certificates and Test Reports to the British and/or European harmonised standards are ideal documents for demonstrating compliance with both the Principal Elements of the Safety Objectives of the UK's Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations SI 3260 1994 and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD): 2006/95/EC. For compliance with the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive: 2004/108/EC, testing can be done in conjunction with our Nemko approved Notified Bodies here in the UK.

CB SCHEME:

For international market access. CB certificates and reports are recognised by more countries outside Europe than any other form of safety approval documentation.

FULL PRODUCT CERTIFICATION SCHEMES:

'N' Mark:

Nemko's own internationally recognised product certification mark, which is available to manufacturers worldwide.

'cCSAus' Mark:

Based on our partnership agreement with CSA International, Nemko Ltd has established considerable experience in offering product certification for the ‘CSA’, ‘CSAus’ and ‘cCSAus’ marks for the USA and Canada, which offers a competitive alternative to the ‘UL’ mark.
