The Committee has since adoptedseven amendments to the LSA Code and eight amendments to resolution MSC.81(70).These amendments have been incorporated in the original forms which, due to their volume,are now presented in six separate circulars, i.e. MSC.1/Circ.1628, MSC.1/Circ.1629,MSC.1/Circ.1630, MSC.1/Circ.1631, MSC.1/Circ.1632 and MSC.1/Circ.1633, pertaining tothe equipment addressed in chapters II to VII of the LSA Code, respectively. The formsannexed to this circular apply to the equipment addressed in chapter II of the LSA Code, i.e.personal life-saving appliances (lifebuoys and associated equipment; lifejackets andassociated equipment; immersion suits and associated equipment; anti-exposure suits; andthermal protective aids).3The use of the revised forms will continue to be of benefit to Administrations andother parties, such as manufacturers, test facilities, owners and surveyors, and will be a majorhelp in mutually accepting the type approval of appliances approved by other Administrations.4Member Governments are invited to bring the annexed revised forms to the attentionof all parties concerned with approving, manufacturing and testing life-saving appliances andto encourage them to use the forms.5This circular supersedes x
MSC.1/Circ.1628Annex, page 1ANNEXREVISED STANDARDIZED LIFE-SAVING APPLIANCEEVALUATION AND TEST REPORT FORMS(PERSONAL LIFE-SAVING APPLIANCES)INTRODUCTIONReferenceThese standardized life-saving appliance evaluation and test report forms have been revisedon the basis of the requirements of the International Life-Saving Appliance (LSA) Code, asamended through resolution MSC.425(98), the Revised recommendation on testing oflife-saving appliances (resolution MSC.81(70)), as amended through resolution MSC.427(98),and the Recommendation on means of rescue on ro-ro passenger ships (MSC/Circ.810).StatusIn general, the tests described in the Revised recommendation (resolution MSC.81(70))constitute the test procedures and the LSA Code sets the acceptance criteria. The evaluationand test report forms are guidelines on how to conduct tests, record test data and verify tests.These forms are not intended to change the standards given in the LSA Code andresolution MSC.81(70), as amended. In the case of inconsistency between the forms and theLSA Code or the Revised recommendation, the text of the Code/resolution should prevailover that of the forms.LayoutEach Administration may use electronically distributed evaluation and test report forms as thebasis for customising the layout to reflect the profile of the approving body, without changingthe original contents.Internal referencesThe evaluation and test report forms should be stand-alone documents. Therefore, all internalreferences in the original text from the LSA Code or resolution MSC.81(70) have beenreplaced by either the full-length text or a reference to other relevant evaluation and test reportforms. However, in some of the forms, external references are kept for updating purposes.Documentation of testsFor approval purposes, all detailed records of test data are to be enclosed with the reportforms.Verification of testsEach test is to be verified passed or failed by an Administration representative's initials (e.g.recognized organization or surveyor) and date of testing. Each page is to be verified oncompletion by the Administration representative's signature and its date of completion.I:\CIRC\MSC\01\MSC.1-CIRC.1628.docx
MSC.1/Circ.1628Annex, page 2Reporting of type approvalTo facilitate unified reporting procedures, the completed evaluation and test report forms areto be seen as a documented verification of required type approval tests for each type ofequipment. When documentation of type approval is required by a third party, the verifiedevaluation and test report forms should constitute the complete documentation of the typeapproval together with the relevant approval certificates.I:\CIRC\MSC\01\MSC.1-CIRC.1628.docx
