30、 on the market conform to the declared performance characteristics. The FPC system shall consist of written procedures (works manual), 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 proc
31、ess and the product. Records shall remain legible, readily identifiable and retrievable and reviewed for effectiveness at least once per year which shall be recorded. This shall include testing of samples in accordance with a prescribed test plan defined in this European Standard. A FPC system confo
32、rming to the requirements of EN ISO 9001, and made specific to the requirements of this standard, is considered to satisfy the above requirements. In each factory, the manufacturer may delegate action to a person having the necessary authority to: a) monitor procedures to demonstrate conformity of t
33、he product at appropriate stages; b) identify and record any instance of nonconformity; c) monitor procedures to correct instances of nonconformity. All FPC systems shall achieve and maintain an adequate level of confidence that the product is in conformity with the requirements of this European Sta
34、ndard. The results of inspections, tests or assessments requiring action shall be recorded, as shall any action taken. The action to be taken when control values or criteria are not met shall be recorded and retained for the period specified in the manufacturers FPC procedures. Components having the
35、 necessary performance levels already demonstrated (e.g. by conformity to an appropriate European Standard or by CE marking in accordance with an appropriate ETA) may be considered to have the declared performance levels and do not require any further testing for the purposes of conformity with this
36、 European Standard, providing the components performance is not detrimentally affected by the manufacturing process when it is incorporated into the product. In the case of new factories, new production lines or units, if the FPC system is temporarily unable to meet requirements that apply for norma
37、l production, as specified in this standard, the provisions of Table 1 shall apply to final quality testing. This shall continue until the FPC system is capable of meeting the other requirements of this standard. 4.2 Production control system 4.2.1 The manufacturer shall establish procedures to ensu
38、re that the production tolerances allow the product performances to conform to the declared values, demonstrated by initial type testing. The production control system shall at least include the necessary procedures for the: a) relevant constituents; b) controls and tests to be carried out during ma
39、nufacture; c) verifications and tests carried out on finished products in accordance with the test regime specified in Clause 5; d) control of the necessary installations, equipment and trained personnel to execute the tests on the raw materials, the tests during production and the final quality con
40、trol tests as specified in Clause 5; BS EN 12899-4:2007Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 07/07/2008 08:37, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 12899-4:2007 (E) 7 e) operation maintenance and calibration of appropriate testing and manufacturing equipment by qualified personnel. NOTE 1 T
41、his does not preclude the manufacturer from concluding a sub-contracting agreement with one or more organizations or persons having the necessary skills and equipment in order to perform the above tasks. The test methods to be applied and the tolerances for the results of all the tests used shall be
42、 documented in the FPC system. The minimum frequency of testing shall be in accordance with the test plan of the manufacturer, or as specified in Table 1, whichever is the more rigorous. NOTE 2 These methods would normally be direct methods. In the case of certain characteristics, indirect test meth
43、ods could be appropriate if a relationship can be established between the specific characteristic (the one to be verified) and another characteristic which is more practicable to measure such that conformity to this standard is demonstrated. Samples that have been subjected to destructive testing ca
44、nnot be used. Other samples may be returned to the production line.
