ABS Programs
ABS has used due diligence in the preparation of this certificate and it represents the information on the product in the ABS Records as of the
date and time the certificate was printed. Type Approval requires Drawing Assessment, Prototype Testing and assessment of the
manufacturer's quality assurance and quality control arrangements. Limited circumstances may allow only Prototype Testing to satisfy Type
Approval. The approvals of Drawings and Products remain valid as long as the ABS Rule, to which they were assessed, remains valid. ABS
cautions manufacturers to review and maintain compliance with all other specifications to which the product may have been assessed. Further,
unless it is specifically indicated in the description of the product; Type Approval does not necessarily waive witnessed inspection or survey
procedures (where otherwise required) for products to be used in a vessel, MODU or facility intended to be ABS classed or that is presently in
class with ABS. Questions regarding the validity of ABS Rules or the need for supplemental testing or inspection of such products should, in all
cases, be addressed to ABS.
