2 Typical Certification Procedure

GUID-4443237F-23E0-49FE-84F6-583966E98454-low.pngFigure 2-1 Typical process of building and certifying an equipment.

As shown in Figure 2-1, beginning with the prototype and development phase, equipment must be designed with certification in mind to catch and avoid preventable issues later in the product life cycle.
