12.3 Hygienic design
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is an agency of the United States Department of
Health and Human Services. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public
health through the regulation and supervision of food safety, vaccines, biopharmaceuticals,
blood transfusions, medical devices and other products.
All exterior materials of the AKMH motor, with the exception of the cable, are FDA approved.
Any direct contact with unpacked foodstuffs is not permitted.
The "European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group" (EHEDG) is a European-based non
government organization devoted to the advancement of hygienic design and food engi-
neering. European legislation requires that handling, preparation, processing, packaging, etc.
of food is done hygienically, with hygienic machinery in hygienic premises (the food hygiene
directive, the machine directive and the food contact materials directive).
The AKMH motor is conform to the European hygienic directives.
