What is TUV certification? TUV certification review

The TÜV mark is a safety certification mark specially customized by the German TÜV for component products, which is widely accepted in Germany and Europe. At the same time, when applying for the TÜV mark, enterprises can apply for the CB certificate together, thereby obtaining certificates from other countries through conversion. Moreover, after the product passes the certification, the German TÜV will recommend these products to rectifier machine manufacturers who come to inquire about qualified component suppliers; in the whole machine certification process, all components with the TÜV mark are exempt from inspection.

history

TÜV is the abbreviation of the German word Technischer überwachüngs VerEIN, which means the German Technical Supervision Association. The history of TÜV can be traced back to the German Steam Boiler Supervision Association established in 1872, which mainly provided safety assurance for production equipment. This organization was the predecessor of the German TÜV. In 1877, 80 steam boiler inspectors jointly established DÜV; in 1900, DÜV was responsible for inspecting the first car and supervising the driver's license test; in 1918, DÜV's business expanded to the mining and energy fields; in 1936, DÜV was renamed TÜV. The TÜV mark is a safety certification mark specially customized by the German TÜV for component products, which is widely recognized worldwide. In the process of whole machine certification, all components with the TÜV mark are exempt from inspection.

Purpose

The purpose of applying safety standards is to prevent personal injury and property loss caused by various hazards that may arise during the use of home appliances, mechanical products, and automotive products, including electric shock or electric shock, overheating or fire, mechanical hazards, radioactive hazards, and chemical hazards.
