ANNEX VI Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes For the purposes of checking conformity with the requirements laid down in Annexes II to V, Member State authorities shall test a single ventilation unit. If the measured values or values calculated on the basis of measured values do not match the manufacturer's declared values within the meaning of Article 5, subject to the tolerances in Table 1: — for models that are produced in lower quantities than 5 per year, the model shall be considered not to comply with this Regulation, — for models that are produced in quantities of 5 or more per year, the market surveillance authority shall randomly test 3 additional units. If the arithmetic mean of the measured values for these units does not meet the requirements, subject to the tolerances in Table 1, the model and all other equivalent models shall be considered not to comply with the requirements of Annexes II to V. The Member State authorities shall provide the test results and other relevant information to the authorities of the other Member States and to the Commission within one month of the decision being taken on the non-compliance of the model. Member State authorities shall use the measurement and calculation methods set out in Annexes VIII and IX and apply only those tolerances that are set out in Table 1. Table 1 Parameter Verification tolerances SPI The measured value shall be no more than 1,07 times the maximum declared value. Thermal efficiency RVU and NRVU The measured value shall be no less than 0,93 times the minimum declared value. SFP int The measured value shall be no more than 1,07 times the maximum declared value. Fan efficiency UVU, non-residential The measured value shall be no less than 0,93 times the minimum declared value. Sound power level RVU The measured value shall be no more than the maximum declared value plus 2 dB. Sound power level NRVU The measured value shall be no more than the maximum declared value plus 5 dB. The verification tolerances shall not be used by the manufacturer or importer in establishing the values in the technical documentation or in interpreting these values with a view to achieving compliance.
