Certification of filters

Industrial filters are used for various purposes, most often for water and air purification. All products that fall into the category of industrial filters must undergo strict quality control under the laws of the EAEU.

For the evaluation of goods on the territory of the EAEU, technical regulations (TR CU, TR EAEU) are in force, which spell out the requirements for product quality. According to the requirements of technical regulations, all categories of goods must undergo a mandatory assessment for compliance by declaring or certification.

Legal Framework.

Industrial filters are subject to TR CU 010/2011, which establishes uniform requirements for industrial equipment. The standards specified in the text of the technical regulation must be observed during development, production, transportation, installation, storage, use and disposal.

Filters operating under voltage from 50V to 1000V are additionally tested according to the following TR TS:

TR CU 004/2011 – regulates the requirements for low-voltage equipment;

TR CU 020/2011 – establishes standards for the electromagnetic compatibility of devices.

According to the requirements of TR CU 010/2011, industrial filters are subject to conformity testing through declaration and certification.

Declaration is issued for the following types of products:

• for cleaning liquids in production;
• for air purification;
• for gas purification;
• for cleaning lubricants;
• for cleaning from polymers and paints and varnishes.

Responsibility for the absence of a certificate for filters.

All manufacturers, suppliers, importers and distributors of products are required to draw up conformity documents. The absence of such a document is considered a gross violation of the law.
