We have been working closely for over 20 years with all of the major Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTL), such as Underwriters Laboratories,
Intertek/ETL, the Canadian Standards Assocation (CSA), QPS, SGS, MET
Labs, and many others.
An established fountain manufacturer came to us at a previous Lightfair inquiring about their first underwater LED lighting project. LED technology was new to them and presented many unique challenges for their lighting systems. To make matters worse, they were operating under a tight schedule.
Product Safety Consulting was able to quickly help them using our Design For Safety Approval™ process. This process includes a variety of services outlined below.
- Design Review – From drawings, we can conduct an initial review confirming the required Standard(s), confirming requirements that pertain to your product, providing recommendations on possible non-compliances, getting your design team headed in the right direction.
- Construction Evaluation – We go through the Standard, paragraph by paragraph, confirming compliance. If non-compliances are found, we provide recommendations on how to bring the product into compliance.
- Testing – We conduct the testing and confirm compliance. Again, if non-compliances are found, we provide recommendations on how to bring the product into compliance.
- Submittal Management – We submit on your behalf and manage the product until Certification is issued.
Having Trouble getting your project across the Finish Line at your NRTL?
We are here to help you!
Client A had been working with a NRTL for 15 months. Staff from the USA and Europe had also visited them at their facility multiple times only to be sent construction letter after construction letter. Once they heard from the engineer that the project was in for final review but nope, only to be sent another construction review letter outlining brand new items that would not be accepted.
With the frustration mounting, they Google “Help with NRTL” and found Product Safety Consulting Inc.!
We reviewed the latest two construction letters, went online and ordered a Certified Wiring Harness and various components, contacted the NRTL and presented the changes and reached agreement, flew to Europe and updated the construction, help modify the NRTL draft report, submitted the revised report, photos and illustrations to NRTL and 7 days later we were scheduling the IPI inspection for this brand new client for this NRTL. Total work time was 15 business days.
Give us a Jingle and let us see if we can help you start, continue or better yet Finish that NRTL project!
