The manufacturer shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary means to take responsibility for the conformity of the product with its declared performance(s). NOTE The assignment of tasks to the notified body(ies) and the manufacturer is shown in Annex ZA, Table ZA.3. kSIST FprEN 1858:2016
FprEN 1858:2016 (E) 19 12.2 Type testing 12.2.1 General All performances related to characteristics included in this standard shall be determined when the manufacturer intends to declare the respective performances unless the standard gives provisions for declaring them without performing tests. (e.g. use of previously existing data, CWFT and conventionally accepted performance). Assessment previously performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard, may be taken into account provided that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method, under the same AVCP system on the same product or products of similar design, construction and functionality, such that the results are applicable to the product in question. For the purposes of assessment, the manufacturer's products may be grouped into families, where it is considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family are representative for that same characteristics for all products within that same family Products may be grouped in different families for different characteristics. NOTE For the sampling for factory production control, see Annex D of this European Standard. In addition, the determination of the product type shall be performed for all characteristics included in the standard for which the manufacturer declares the performance: — at the beginning of the production of new or modified Chimneys - Concrete flue blocks (unless a member of the same product range), or — at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated properties); or — they shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs in the Chimneys - Concrete flue blocks design, in the raw material or in the supplier of the components, or in the method of production (subject to the definition of a family), which would affect significantly one or more of the characteristics. Where components are used whose characteristics have already been determined, by the component manufacturer, on the basis of assessment methods of other product standards, these characteristics need not be re-assessed. The specifications of these components shall be documented. Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European specifications may be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not replace the responsibility on the Chimneys - Concrete flue blocks manufacturer to ensure that the Chimneys - Concrete flue blocks as a whole is correctly manufactured and its component products have the declared performance values. 12.2.2 Test samples, testing and compliance criteria The number of samples of concrete flue blocks to be tested/assessed shall be in accordance with Table 6. The performance clauses relevant to Factory production control and Type testing are given in Table 7.
