- mechanical subsystems (cabins, seats, pulleys, roller batteries, tow-hangers, ropes, tensioning systems, brakes, station safety devices, etc.)

INFOGRAPHIE |
- Module B: EU-type examination (Annex III of Regulation 2016/424) + Module D: Production quality assurance (Annex IV of Regulation 2016/424)
- Module B: EU-type examination (Annex III of Regulation 2016/424) + Module F: Product verification (Annex V of regulation 2016/424)
- Module G: Unit verification (Annex VI of regulation 2016/424)
- Module H1: Full quality assurance plus design examination (Annex VII of regulation 2016/424)
The services are generally carried out in 2 phases:
- a technical assessment based on the documents provided by the manufacturer that justify the design: drawings, design calculations, safety study, specifications file, design file, functional and normative test reports, assembly, adjustment and maintenance instructions, etc. (Modules B, G, F and H1)
- an assessment at the manufacturer’s premises, using audit techniques to examine its quality system in the design, manufacturing, final inspection and testing phases of the safety subsystems and components. (Modules D and H1)
STRMTG-ON involvement applies only to safety components and subsystems, not infrastructure or the entire installation.
