Laboratory testing services
Ensure that your equipment fulfils regulatory requirements.What is laboratory, measurement, and control equipment testing?
Electrotechnical products such as laboratory, measurement and control equipment are subject to CE marking. This means that they must meet the requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive for electromagnetic compatibility and the Low Voltage Directive for electrical safety. Our laboratory testing services can help by validating the accuracy, safety, efficiency, and quality of your equipment.
TÜV SÜD offers an overview of the various legal regulations and, if required, also supports manufacturers during the development phase.
Why laboratory, measurement, and control equipment testing is important
In industries characterized by dynamic and innovative developments with extensive international networking, manufacturers and distributors face the challenge of navigating numerous international requirements. Effective testing is crucial in this landscape, as it ensures that equipment is rigorously tested, inspected, and certified for safety and quality.
Testing not only guarantees worker safety and high performance but also fosters widespread acceptance among stakeholders, including governments, clients, and society. Moreover, effective testing optimizes product design by enabling early identification of faults and timely corrective actions. This proactive approach helps avoid costly redesigns, product recalls, and litigation.
