NOTE Same AVCP system means testing by an independent third party under the responsibility of a notified product certification body.
For the purposes of assessment, the manufacturers products may be grouped into families, where it is considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family are representative for those same characteristics for all products within that same family
Products may be grouped in different families for different characteristics.
Reference to the assessment method standards should be made to allow the selection of a suitable representative sample(s).
In addition, the determination of the product type shall be performed for all characteristics included in the standard for which the manufacturer declares the performance:
— at the beginning of the production of a new or modified fire resisting and/or smoke control doorsets andlor openable windows (unless a member of the same product range), or
— at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated properties),
they shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs in the fire resisting andlor smoke control doorsets and br openable windows design, in the raw material or in the supplier of the components, or in the method of production (subject to the definition of a family). which would affect significantly one or more of the characteristics.
Where components are used whose characteristics have already been determined, by the component manufacturer, on the basis of assessment methods of other product standards, these characteristics need not be re-assessed. The specifications of these components shall be documented.
Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European specifications may be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not replace the responsibility on the fire resisting and/or smoke control doorset and br openable window manufacturer to ensure that the fire resisting and/or smoke control doorsets and br openable windows as a whole is correctly manufactured and have the declared performance values.
6.2.2 Test samples, testing and compliance criteria
The number of samples of fire resisting and/or smoke control doorsets and /or openable windows to be tested/assessed shall be in accordance with Table 3.
purposes without the assembler having to involve again a notified body to undertake the determination of the product type of the essential characteristic(s) that were already tested. provided that:
— the assembler manufactures a product which uses the same combination of components (components with the same characteristics), and in the same way, as that for which the system house has obtained the determination of the product type report; if this report Is based on a combination of components not representing the final product as to be placed on the market, and/or is not assembled in accordance with the system houses instruction for assembling the components, the assembler needs to submit his finished product to the determination of the product type:
— the system house has notified to the manufacturer the instructions for manufacturing/assembling the product and installation guidance:
— the assembler (manufacturer) assumes the responsibility for the correct assembly of the product in accordance with the Instructions for manufacturing/assembling the product and installation guidance notified to him by the system house;
— the instructions for manufacturing/assembling the product and installation guidance notified to the assembler (manufacturer) by the system house are an integral part of the assemblers Factory Production Control system and are referred to in the determination of the product type report:
— the assembler is able to provide documented evidence that the combination of components he is using, and his way of manufacturing, correspond to the one for which the system house has obtained the determination of the product type report (he needs to keep a copy of the system house’s determination of the product type report);
— regardless the possibility of referring, on the basis of the agreement signed with the system house, to the latter’s responsibility and liability under private law, the assembler remains responsible for the product being in compliance with the declared performances, including both the design and the manufacture of the product, which Is given when he affixes the regulatory marking on his product.
6.3 Factory production control (FPC)
6.3.1 General
The manufacturer shall establish, document and maintain an FPC system to ensure that the products placed on the market comply with the declared performance of the essential characteristics.
The FPC system shall consist of procedures, regular inspections and tests and/or assessments and the use of the results to control raw and other Incoming materials or components, equipment, the production process and the product.BS/EN 16034-2014 pdf download.
