QAL1 Suitability Testing and Certification for Automated Measuring Systems (AMS)

QAL1 suitability testing and certification for automated measuring systems (AMS) | TÜV Rheinland

Testing and certification for compliant and suitable measuring equipment

If you have to ensure that pollutants are monitored in compliance with regulatory requirements, you will need tested and certified measuring equipment. This is because equipment for the continuous monitoring of emissions and immissions must be certified and, in Germany, also officially listed.

Accredited test laboratory for your emission measuring devices

In our suitability testing laboratory, we perform tests and certifications for your emission and immission measuring systems and emission analyzers. Our experts test and certify these devices in accordance with the EN 15267 series of standards and, in the case of immission measurement systems, in accordance with the relevant directives.

As a registered measuring body in Germany and internationally accredited according to ISO 17025, we test your emission measuring devices and support the entire certification process. You will benefit from our many years of experience in the field of emission and immission measurements.

Testing and QAL1 certification
Certification of emission and immission measuring devices and analysis equipment:

  • Suitability testing of devices for emission and immission measurement and analysis equipment
  • Application for approval from the relevant body (e.g. German or other European certification bodies)
  • Auditing and certification according to QAL1 and EN 15267
  • Listing and documentation in our official database and with additional information in our Certipedia database

Benefit from our accredited testing laboratory, which offers national and international companies suitability tests and certifications for emission and immission measuring equipment in accordance with the latest guidelines. This also includes all the services associated with the certification to the EN 15267 series of standards.

Testing and certification of immission monitoring devices:

  • Suitability testing as per the latest standards (e.g. EN 14211 or EN 16450)
  • Performance of suitability tests for immission measurement devices for particulate and gaseous measurement components for both classic point measurement methods and optical remote measurement devices by our test laboratory

Testing and QAL1 certification of devices for the monitoring and analysis of emission data (DAHS) in accordance with EN 17255 and specific German requirements:

In accordance with EN 14181, only measuring and data acquisition equipment that has undergone suitability testing is approved for the emissions measurement and monitoring required by the authorities in Europe. These are:

  • Certified devices for the continuous measurement of emissions and the determination of exhaust gas boundary conditions
  • Certified data acquisition systems (emission analyzers) for recording and analyzing emission data. Testing and certification is based on the EN 17255 requirements as well as various national minimum requirements (e.g. German Federal Emissions Monitoring Practice (BEP) 2023). The scope of testing may include systems for remote data transmission (RDT) and software modules for determining greenhouse gas mass flows in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Act (TEHG) or for automating QAL3 drift tests.
