ISO 15736:2006

Ships and marine technology — Pyrotechnic life-saving appliances — Testing, inspection and marking of production units

ISO 15736:2006 specifies production tests and inspections, conformity assessment procedures, and marking requirements for life-saving appliances that utilize pyrotechnic devices in functioning. Specifically, it applies to products which have been evaluated and tested in accordance with the IMO Recommendation on testing of life-saving appliances, and type approved by maritime administrations to the requirements of the IMO Life-Saving Appliance (LSA) Code for use on ships subject to the requirements of the 1974 Safety of Life at Sea Convention (as amended). The basic principles may be considered suitable for pyrotechnic life-saving appliances manufactured to other than the IMO requirements, however ISO 15736:2006 applies directly only to products for which it contains specific requirements.
