EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES –

Part 34: Application of quality systems
for equipment manufacture


FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO/IEC 80079-34 has been prepared by IEC subcommittee 31M: Non-
electrical equipment and protective systems for explosive atmospheres, of IEC 31: Equipment
for explosive atmospheres.
This publication is published as a double logo standard.

INTRODUCTION
This International Standard specifies requirements for a quality system that can be used by an
organization for the production of equipment and protective systems for explosive
atmosphere.
It can also be used by third parties, including certification bodies, to assess the organization’s
ability to meet conformity assessments system requirements and/or regulatory requirements.
The application of this standard is intended to cover both electrical and non-electrical
equipment and protective systems. The detailed content (e.g. annexes) is currently more
focused on the established equipment standards for electrical equipment, However, IEC sub-
committee 31M has recently been formed with the responsibility for the development of
standards for non-electrical equipment. It is anticipated that, where appropriate, these
standards, or requirements related to them, will be referenced within this standard in the
future.
Manufacturer’s quality requirements are an integral part of most certification schemes and as
such this Standard has been prepared with the IECEx equipment certification scheme
requirements in mind, is intended to support the ATEX scheme requirements for a
manufacturer’s quality system and can be applied in other national or regional certifications
schemes that relate to the manufacture of explosion-protected equipment.

NOTE The body may be either a manufacturer, purchaser, third party or a certification body.
4 Quality management system
4.1 General requirements
Subclause 4.1 of ISO 9001:2008 applies, with the following addition:
The quality system shall ensure that the product conforms to the type described in the Ex
certificate and the technical documentation.
4.2 Documentation requirements
4.2.1 General
Subclause 4.2.1 of ISO 9001:2008 applies.
4.2.2 Quality manual
Subclause 4.2.2 of ISO 9001:2008 applies.
4.2.3 Control of documents
Subclause 4.2.3 of ISO 9001:2008 applies, with the following addition:

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
– 10 – 80079-34  IEC:2011
a) technical documentation and manufacturer’s documentation shall be controlled,
b) documented procedures shall ensure that information contained within manufacturer’s
documentations is compatible with the technical documentation. The manufacturer shall
not initially approve or subsequently amend related drawings unless they are in
compliance with the schedule drawings,
c) the quality system shall ensure that no factor (type, characteristic, position etc.) defined
within the Ex certificate and technical documentation (e.g. schedule drawings) is modified,
d) there shall be a documented system that refers all related drawings to the relevant
schedule drawings,
e) where there are common schedule drawings associated with more than one Ex certificate,
there shall be a documented system to ensure simultaneous supplementary action in the
event of an amendment to such drawings,
NOTE 1 Some manufacturers use common components with common drawing numbers on more than one
product. Some of these products may have different persons responsible for them. Therefore, if one product with a
common component and drawing number is revised to meet a need, and if the necessary supplementary certificate
is obtained, there needs to be a system for ensuring that any other certificates that call up such components are
also subject to supplementary certification. This is in order to avoid such products not being in compliance with
their technical documentation. The system should identify the component drawing version, and this version
shouldn’t be modified by anybody other than the person(s) responsible for the equipment.
f) where a manufacturer also has drawings for equipment not intended for use in explosive
atmospheres, the manufacturer shall have a system that enables both the related
drawings and schedule drawings to be clearly identified,
NOTE 2 The following examples indicate some methods of achieving this:
• the use of visual markers;
• the use of a unique series of drawing numbers, e.g. all drawings concerning a certified equipment have an Ex
prefix to the drawing number.
g) the manufacturer shall document who is responsible for the quality system of each Ex
certificate.
NOTE 3 In some certification schemes, the body responsible for the quality system associated with each Ex
certificate may be different from the body that issued the Ex certificate and therefore needs to be clearly identified.
h) where technical documentation or manufacturer’s documentation are passed to a third
party, they shall be p
