In order to install products at the US work place, they must meet the product-approval requirements of OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) under the 29 CFR (Code of Federal Regulation), which is governed by the US Department of Labor. OSHA has a program that allows Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTL) to provide product safety certification under the US Federal Law. Due to US-Canada mutual recognition agreement, NRTL approval can also cover the Canadian product safety requirements. NRTLs include organizations such as UL, TUV, Intertek, MET labs and CSA.
Hermon Labs cooperates with leading NRTL bodies and is accredited to carry out Product Safety tests and evaluation for the North American market. NRTL grants its marks based on review and approval of Hermon Laboratories evaluation results.
Hermon Labs can provide the following NRTL marks:
Intertek – Product Safety mark
MET – Product Safety mark
TUV – Product Safety mark
|
UL – Product Safety mark
CSA – Product Safety mark
|
The application of NRTL mark is conditional to quarterly factory inspections, verifying that no critical changes have been made to the product. Hermon Laboratories can conduct the factory inspection on behalf of NRTLs
