What it means for sourcing

For a filling-machine spare-part enquiry, connect the machine identity with the component marking. Include the serial number, year and available revision of the spare-parts list. Add the drawing position and a readable nameplate. For a valve or seal, the plant documentation should identify the medium, material requirements and cleaning conditions.

For a sensor, include its complete reference, connection, measuring range and installed device version. For networked devices, also identify the documented parameter set and associated device description. An announcement about a redesigned machine does not establish that every new component fits an older installation. DEAVA can use your information to clarify the sourcing enquiry; approval of a different configuration and commissioning need agreement with the team responsible for the plant.

What to include in your enquiry

• Machine, serial number and spare-parts list revision
• Component reference and drawing position
• Medium, connections and documented operating conditions
• Device version, quantity and destination
