Approvals
An OEM application approval according to EN45501
Typically the LINAK Weighing Solution will be classified as a “non-automatic weight” system.
If a LINAK Weighing Solution system is applied to a bed AND classified as such, the system MUST be “first-time” verified and sealed.
The verification and sealing is typically carried out in one of two ways:
1. Verification by the Bed manufacturer himself.
It prescribes that the manufacturer is certified to carry out the verification.
The certification can be obtained through a Notified Body that performs auditing and approval of the procedures and the quality system in the
manufacturing company.
An example from Denmark:
’DS Certificering’ is the only Notified Body in Denmark, certified to carry out approvals of quality systems for manufacturing and calibration of
‘non-automatic weight’ systems. Within Europe it is however possible to use any other Notified Body from one of the EU member states.
When certified the Bed manufacturer obtains a type approval certificate to prove they are certified to manufacture and calibrate their own “non-
automatic weight” system.
2. Verification by ”first-time” verification Bodies.
In Denmark there are three Notified Bodies available for the verification and sealing of the application:
Force Technology, Dansk Kalibreringsteknik and Trescal.
Again any other Notified Body from an EU member state can be used.
“First-time” verification can take place at either the manufacturer or at the destination of use.
Requirements in both situations:
• The Type Approval Certificate number MUST be marked at the label on the weight unit.
• The Type Approval Certificate must be issued according to and including reference to the Directive for “non-automatic weights” 2009/23/EC
(new non-modified version of 90/384/EEC).
