Why Certification required ?

- The objective of the certification is to ensure that materials, components and systems used in ships to be classed by the Society conform to the rules and other standards within the framework of the rules.

- The certification is a conformity assessment normally including both design and production assessment.

Different type of certificates

Material certificates
- DNV product certificate: Approval of Manufacturer - Manufacturer Works certificate: Approval of Manufacturer - Test reports

Type approval : Design assessment + Prototype testing: Valid for 4 years Case by case approval: One time design assessment Equipment certification
- Type approval + Workshop testing of the product itself: Engines, Air receivers etc. - Material certificate + Testing at manufacturers premises: For eg. Valves>100 NB

Marine equipment certificates (MED certificates) Products approved by National authorities (For e.g. MMD)
