PATTERN APPROVAL (METROLOGY)For measuring equipment used in the Customs Union a Metrology certificate is a compulsory document. This so-called “Pattern Approval” can be issued for any kind of measuring equipment. Existing internationally recognized certification facilitates the issuance of a Metrology certificate.
CIS Commodity Inspection Services, with over 20 years experience in this kind of certification, offer a fast and reliable service with a strong focus on industrial applications in the gas & oil and chemical industry.
CU TR CERTIFICATIONAs from 1992 Russian law came into force making it mandatory that a wide range of products bound for the Russian Federation is tested and certified in accordance with national GOST standards. As of 2013 with the creation of the Customs Union (CU) between Russia, Kazakhstan and Belorus, a new common standard was introduced which is based on “Technical Reglementations (TR)”.
The new CU TR system comprises both Declarations of Conformity and Certificates of Conformity, each with their own conditions. There are several Technical Regulations one may have to comply with, of which the main ones (in the industrial field) are: • TR 004 : LVE • TR 010 : mechanical • TR 012 : Ex • TR 020 : EMC • TR 032 : pressure
The new CU TR documents replace the former GOST R, RTN “Permit to Use” and GOST Ex certificates.
It is of great importance to involve a well experienced certification company who can guide you through what is the best solution for your specific situation.
