Where our number appears
Four digits that travel with your device.
When we carry out the conformity assessment for a device, its CE marking is followed by our identification number, 3132. Hospitals, distributors and authorities across the EU can see which Notified Body was responsible.
1
CE marking
The manufacturer’s declaration that the device meets Regulation (EU) 2017/745. It lets the device circulate freely within the EU.

Our number: 3132

Unique Device Identifier (UDI)
