Evidence of closures according to Russian Federation standards

Tipo: Test standard

Standard: GOST R 53307:2009

Clienti:

For fire resistant doors there is still no Technical Regulation to refer to for an EAC marking. They must have a Fire Prevention Certificate, as they are present in the list of products subject to the government resolution nr.241 / 17.03.2009, art.146. In this list on page 10 the reference customs codes are also indicated, the wooden doors typically have the code 7308 30 000 0.

TECHNICAL STANDARD

The Technical Standard of reference is indicated in the Federal Law nr. 123 / 22.07.2008, entered into force on 01.05.2009. This Technical Standard provides for various Certification Schemes indicated with a no. and the letter c (e.s. 5c), where "c" indicates that it is a mandatory certification. To import doors into Russia you need a fire certificate which is issued by accredited bodies. These require to have a test report issued by an Accredited Laboratory and the regulatory reference for the fire test is GOST 53307: 2009.

HOW IS THE TEST

The test standard is very similar to EN1634-1. It uses the same heating curve, has very similar criteria and limits as well as a field of application of the results that is quite comparable. The Russian regulatory system does not have an instrument such as the European Exap, therefore any changes must be verified with the laboratory. Until a few years ago, it was sufficient to carry out the test and have the test certificate and the fire certificate. The ICT market was a bit peculiar: there were laboratories without test equipment.

A SERIOUS PROCEDURE

In recent years, partly because of this, there has been a strong squeeze. Now the testing and certification of doors are very serious, the process is as follows:

• sending the range and details of the products to the laboratory;
• drafting of the offer for services;
• signing of the contract for the supply of testing and certification services;
• sending the ministerial checklist to the customer for the preparation of the documentation (a lot of management documentation, as well as installation instructions, are required in Russian);
• visa application for inspectors, travel arrangements;
• two-day inspection visit of two inspectors (with our support) at the production plant - compliance, quality and FPC - Factory Production Control are checked;
• sampling of the products that will be tested;
• sending the products to be tested to the laboratory;
• closure of any observations or non-conformities;
• laboratory tests;
• issue of test reports;
• insertion of the certificate in the government database;
• the manufacturer can market the product on Russian territory, producing in compliance, providing installation and maintenance instructions in Russian, applying the conformity plates specified in the certificate.

THE CHEMOLLI FIRE CONTRIBUTION

When it comes to testing, we provide our experience and our KNOW-HOW. Having always done this type of activity, as specialists, we offer you complete advice during all the laboratory experimentation phases, from design to documentation of results. THE METHOD Listening is the most important phase of our interaction: we want you to develop a product that is the sum of your identity and your needs. First of all, we'll try to understand your real needs, the channels and the markets you want to measure yourself on. Then we will show you how the testing and certification process takes place: we need to deal with you, to fully grasp your point of view. Then, we concert a proposal that respects - compatibly with the required performances - your product lines, your production lines and, as far as possible, the potential economies of scale by using products and methodologies already consolidated in your company. EMPATHY Beyond the opportunities, which we will show you, we will then advise you what we would do, in your shoes. We advise with our experience on what, how and where to test.

Which materials and components to use, an important part of our dialogue on which we can best advise you. In addition to this, a cost sheet and a forecast of weights, to allow you to check if your goals will be achieved. Using the best practices in the sector, we are convinced of this. ATYPICAL CONSULTANTS: WE TAKE CARE OF THE TESTING ACTIVITY A consultant gives advice, then lets the client put it into practice. We are not like this: we take off tie and put on our work clothes when needed. Once the production of the samples has been launched, we are present during the gluing of the doors, we offer support during processing and hardware installation, we proceed with our technicians to install the samples in the laboratory and we are physically present at the test. We manage the post-test documentation review phase, we illustrate the documentation and remain available for all issues related to results management. In addition, we offer you complete advice during all certification phases, assisting you:

• in planning and budgeting of activities, to determine an investment plan;
• in all relations with the notified body;
• during sampling (collection of products to be tested);
• to implement your FPC - Factory Production Control;
• to prepare the necessary documentation including instructions, labels;
• with our presence during the initial inspections;
• subsequently, as support for all management issues.
