Conformance to specifications

Class A conforms to specifications in ASTM E694 for standard taper stopcocks and to ASTM E287 for Teflon or poly-tetrafluoroethylene stopcock plugs. The 10-mL size meets the requirements for ASTM D664. ... 

Each segment of the insulated wire and cable industry has its own set of standards, and cables are built to conform to specifications provided by a large variety of technical associations such as The Institute of Electrical Electronic Engineers (IEEE), The Insulated Cable Engineers Association, (ICEA), National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), Rural Electrification Administration of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (REA), Association of Edison Illumination Companies (AEIC), MiUtary Specifications of the Department of Defense (MIL), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), National Electrical Code (NEC), etc. 

With or without perforations, may be used with asphalts conforming to Specification D312 requirements in constmction of BUR, and Specification D449 requirements in membrane system of waterproofing. Felts covered by this specification are Type I (No. 15 asphalt felt) and Type II (No. 30 asphalt felt). 

Products or services that do not possess the right features and characteristics either by design or by construction are products of poor quality. Those that fail to give customer satisfaction by being uneconomic to use are also products of poor quality, regardless of their conformance to specifications. 

Delivery decisions are more than decisions about conformance to specification. They are about conformance to contract and those responsible for the production processes may not be able to determine whether contractual conditions have been met. Much more may hang on the resolution of a problem than mere conformance to specification. The decision in some circumstances may be taken by the CEO. There may have been a safety problem or a product liability problem so your system needs to recognize these fine distinctions. Those making the delivery decisions need possession of all the information required to protect the company as well as meet customer needs. 

The standard creates a distinction between design verification and design validation. There are two types of verification those verification activities performed during design and on the component parts to verify conformance to specification and those verification activities performed on the completed design to verify performance but more on this later. 

Rework means the continuation of processing that will make an item conform to specification. Rework requires only normal operations to complete the item and does not require any additional instructions. Rework when applied to documents means correcting errors without changing the original requirement. 

The purpose for which the analytical data are required may perhaps be related to process control and quality control. In such circumstances the objective is checking that raw materials and finished products conform to specification, and it may also be concerned with monitoring various stages in a manufacturing process. For this kind of determination methods must be employed which are quick and which can be readily adapted for routine work in this area instrumental methods have an important role to play, and in certain cases may lend themselves to automation. On the other hand, the problem may be one which requires detailed consideration and which may be regarded as being more in the nature of a research topic. 

The 510(k) pre-market notification process is not as onerous as the pre-market approval procedure, as clearance to market a device is not based on actual assessment of the safety and effectiveness of the particular device in question. Instead, devices can be cleared on the basis that they are substantially equivalent to existing devices that have been recognised as safe and effective, or that they conform to specific device standards promulgated or recognised by the FDA. There are four procedural variations to the 510(k) notification process. 

GPMP is concerned with the manufacture of medicines, and includes control of ingredients, plant construction, process validation, production, and cleaning (see also Chapter 22). QC is that part of GPMP dealing with specification, documentation and assessing conformance to specification. 

You can write in the bottom section of the box an invariant that applies to all the external actions. A static invariant would be anded with all their pre- and postconditions an effect invariant would be anded with all postconditions. This approach is useful for expressing some rule that is always observed when nothing is going on inside the collaboration but that is not observed by the collaborators between themselves. An open collaboration typically cannot list external actions explicitly, because they are usually unknown. Instead, you can use an effect invariant to constrain every external action to conform to specific rules. For example, the external effect invariant in Figure 4.18 states. 

Requirements below apply to joints where the threads of both mating components conform to specifications for... 

Samples of WFI and purified water are usually collected daily by quality control personnel, and tested for conformance to specification. Failure to meet specification results in the system being emptied and fully sanitized, before generation of fresh water. 

NOTE The technical aspects to be considered include but are not limited to such factors as the power requirements, speed, rotation, general arrangement, couplings, dynamics, lubrication, sealing system, material test reports, instrumentation, piping, conformance to specifications and testing of components. 

Check that material and construction conform to specification. 

Check and verify that the water produced by the still conforms to specifications (quality and quantity). 

Pressure test the vessel to determine that the leak rate conforms to specifications, then document. 

Ensure that the pressure rating of the vessel conforms to specifications. 

Check and document that materials of construction conform to specifications. 

Representative samples of each shipment must be collected for testing as required by 211.84. (b). The number of containers to be sampled depends on the (i) component variability, (ii) confidence level, (iii) degree of precision desired, (iv) past quality history of the supplier, and (v) quantity needed for analysis and reserve samples. For hazardous or highly toxic raw materials, where on-site testing may be impractical, suppliers COA should be obtained, showing that the raw materials conform to specifications. In addition, the identity of these raw materials should be confirmed by examination of containers and labels. The lack of on-site testing for hazardous raw materials should be documented.
