20、ng and organisation of those tests used for the purpose of the assessment of conformity. For each type of tests (i.e. type testing (TT), batch release test (BRT), process verification test (PVT) and audit test (AT), this document details the applicable characteristics to be assessed and the frequenc
21、y and sampling of testing. A typical scheme for the assessment of conformity of compounds, products and assemblies by manufacturers is given in Figure 1. Figure 1 Typical scheme for the assessment of conformity by a manufacturer A typical scheme for the assessment of conformity of compounds, formula
22、tions, pipes, fittings, or assemblies by manufacturers, is given in Figure 2. Figure 2 Typical scheme for the assessment of conformity by a manufacturer PD CEN/TS 13598-3:2012CEN/TS 13598-3:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Specification gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of compounds/f
23、ormulations, products and assemblies in accordance with Parts 1 and 2 of EN 13598 intended to be included in the manufacturers quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of third-party certification procedures. NOTE In order to help the reader, a basic test matri
24、x is given in Annexes A and B. In conjunction with EN 13598- 1 and -2, this Technical Specification is applicable to ancillary underground drainage fittings including manholes and inspection chambers: for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage outside the building structure (application area
25、 code “U“), reflected in the marking of products by “U“, and for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage for both buried in ground within the building structure (application area code “D“) and outside the building structure (application area code “U“), reflected in the marking of products by
26、“UD“. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
