Testing & Certification
Rotor supplies different categories of inspection documents depending on Type reference as per EN 10204.
EN10204 Reference | Designation of document type | Document content | Document validated by |
|---|---|---|---|
Type 2.1 | Declaration of compliance with the order | Statement of compliance with the order | The manufacturer |
Type 2.2 | Test report | Statement of compliance with the order, with indication of results of nonspecific inspection | The manufacturer |
Type 3.1 | Inspection Certificate 3.1 | Statement of compliance with the order, with indication of results of specific inspection | The manufacturer’s authorized inspection representative independent of the manufacturing department |
Type 3.2 | Inspection Certificate 3.2 | Statement of compliance with the order, with indication of results of specific inspection | The manufacturer’s authorized inspection representative independent of the manufacturing department and either the purchasers authorized inspection representative or the inspector designated by the official regulations |
An extended certification for the shaft material or cooler that serves as part of a critical application may be required in addition to inspection documents for marine motors. Specific inspection and approval process need to be followed for such cases. Please consult our experts for further information and support.
