Certification rules Page 2 of 9 FOREWORD: The CERTALARM Quality Mark has been established to provide a single Quality Mark, recognised throughout Europe, for products, systems and services in the Electrical and Electronic Fire & Life Safety and Security industries. It provides assurance to the specifier and user that the product, system or service consistently meets all requirements of the relevant European or other specified standards. The CERTALARM Mark is owned by CERTALARM AISBL and administered on their behalf by CERTALARM Management. The CERTALARM System is made available to Certification Bodies who wish to offer the CERTALARM Mark to clients desiring to demonstrate the compliance of their products, systems or services to the relevant standards by conformity testing, assessment of the quality management system applicable to the manufacture / provision of that product, system or service and associated inspection of the manufacture or service provision. Whilst provision has been made for the expansion of the CERTALARM Scheme to include services and additional product types, appropriate standards will not be included in this document until preparations are made for operations to extend into that area.

Certification rules Page 5 of 9 1. SCOPE This document specifies the tests to be conducted during periodic surveillance procedures of products certified under the CERTALARM scheme and is e.g. applicable for continuous compliance system V These are carried out at the intervals specified in CERTALARM System: Certification Rules - Part 2: Standards specified for various products, systems and services (RD_081 CertAlarm Scheme standards and regulations). In case of the continuous compliance scheme such as the system V scheme the surveillance interval will be 2 years. 2. NORMATIVE REFERENCES The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. CERTALARM System: Certification Rules - Part 1 CERTALARM System: Certification Rules - Part 2 CERTALARM System: Certification Rules - Part 4 Definition of procedures and conditions for testing and certification Standards specified for various products, systems and services Procedures for confirmation of continued consistency of results 3. General Unless otherwise stated, the version of each standard that is referenced by CERTALARM System: Certification Rules - Part 2: Standards specified for various products, systems and services shall apply, including any referenced amendments, Where sensitivity parameters are variable, the certifier may specify the setting to be used according to previous results. On all samples the following checks shall be carried out. This may be performed as part of a factory production control audit. Checks: Technical Documentation, including Bill of Material (BoM) PCB layout version Firmware / software version(s) Bill of Material (BoM) Documentation (including change records) Marking / labelling Visual inspection of the sample with respect to build, assembly of the unit. If the above does not identify any problems requiring specific attention, the following tests will be carried out at the specified surveillance re-test interval. The tests are identified by clause number from the applicable standard. Additional tests may be required if the product has been modified or other problems are identified. 4. Sample criteria and review criteria of test results Sample criteria In accordance of CERTALARM rules part 1, the samples for re-testing have to be taken randomly. To combine this with samples to be supplied by the manufacturer, the following procedure has to be followed. The assigned product assessor has to request from the manufacturer the produced specimen list (list of all produced serial numbers) which is still on stock. From this list the assessor will pick a random sample. This sample will be supplied by the manufacturer for the surveillance. Review Criteria In accordance to the defined standard (as shown in the tables), the tests will be performed at 1 product (sample from the market). In case the test results are within the limits, the tests will be judged as ok. In case the product failed during the test, the client will be requested to perform a root cause investigation (results of investigation should be available within 7 working days). In case the problem is not found the client will be informed to stop selling the product and to determine the size of the Page 5 of 9
