Standards & Certifications
Separate a product design requirement from evidence of manufacturer certification.
Design standards
A reference to API or ASME in an enquiry defines a technical requirement. It does not, by itself, demonstrate that a manufacturer holds a licence or third-party certification. Confirm the applicable standard and edition for each configuration.
Certificate verification
Request the certificate number, scope, issuing body, validity dates and the exact legal entity and manufacturing location covered.
Project documentation
List the material certificates, inspection and test plan, test reports and approved drawings needed for your purchase order. Vanta Valve certification documents are pending publication; no certification claim is made on this preview.
