15、andards shall be withdrawn at the latestby October 2004.Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 has entrusted CEN/TC 132 WG 9 “Aluminiumand aluminium alloy cast and wrought products in contact with food“ to prepare a revision of the followingstandard :EN 601, Aluminium and alumi
16、nium alloys Castings Chemical composition of castings for use in contact withfood.This revision consists mainly in the addition of a new clause 6.This document supersedes EN 601:1994.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are
17、 bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark,Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Un
18、ited Kingdom.EN 601:2004 (E)41 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the maximum mass content of alloying elements and impurities in aluminium andaluminium alloy cast materials and articles designed to be in contact with foodstuff. It contains provisions for thedemonstration of conformity of product
19、s with the present standard.NOTE 1 Materials include ingots and liquid metal. Articles are finished goods.NOTE 2 Some of the products listed in the present standard can be subject to patent or patent applications, and their listingherein does not in anyway imply the granting of a licence under such
20、patent right.CEN/TC 132 affirms it is its policy that in the case when a patentee refuses to grant licenses on standardizedstandard products under reasonable and not discriminatory conditions, then this product shall be removed from thecorresponding standard.2 Normative referencesThis European Stand

31、ble.5 Selection of cast aluminium and aluminium alloysThe cast aluminium and aluminium alloys which shall be used for the fabrication of articles for use in contact withfoodstuff are those which conform with the requirements in 4.1 or 4.2 as applicable.For every use of a standardised cast aluminium
32、or aluminium alloy for the fabrication of articles for use in contactwith foodstuff, the conformity with this European Standard shall be established by checking the maximum contentsspecified in EN 1706 against the requirements in 4.1 or 4.2 as applicable.NOTE It is strongly recommended to use standa
33、rdised aluminium or aluminium alloys.The selection of the aluminium or aluminium alloy for a given application shall be the responsibility of the endproduct manufacturer, depending on the intended final use.EN 601:2004 (E)76 Demonstration of conformity with the present standardThe manufacture of cas
34、tings used for the fabrication of articles for use designated to be in contact with foodstuffshall be carried out in the framework of a quality assurance system. Within this quality assurance system, themanufacturer shall maintain a procedure to control the requirements of the present standard (see
35、clause 4).Special attention shall be given to :the qualification of raw materials entering into the formulation of the products ; and totraceabillity of delivered products to the measurement of the chemical composition of the materials used(see clause 5).NOTE The qualification of raw materials can b
36、e based either on actual measurements done by the producer or oncertificates of conformity obtained from the supplier of said raw material.The manufacturer shall establish an inspection certificate 3.1 according to EN 10204:1991, which certifycompliance of the delivered products with the requirement
37、s of the present standard. Unless otherwise agreed uponbetween manufacturer and purchaser, this certificate can be issued at the discretion of the manufacturer either foreach delivered lot or shipment, or periodically for all products delivered under the present standard within a periodof time not exceeding twelve months.
