Which code does this activity belong in?
Code 334519 covers manufacturers of measuring and controlling devices that do not fit into more specialized categories. The code excludes electromedical apparatus such as pacemakers and imaging equipment, which are classified in Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing. It also excludes navigation and aeronautical instruments, which belong in Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing. Establishments making automatic environmental controls for buildings and appliances, industrial process measurement instruments, fluid meters, electrical testing instruments, analytical laboratory instruments, or irradiation apparatus are classified in their respective specialized codes rather than 334519.
