Compliance:
Registration and design verification involves compliance with relevant regulations and standards. ACTS has experience registering assets as per the relevant work health and safety legislations. ACTS will liaise with the relevant authority and register the assets ensuring compliance and quality assurance.

Design Registration and Plant Registration:

Asset Conformity Testing Services (ACTS) provides assistance in registration of assets including design and item of plant with the relevant regulatory authority to comply with state specific regulations and laws. We work with pressure equipment designed to both Australian and international standards. We work with these standards AS/NZS 1200, AS 1210, AS 1228, AS 3920, AS 4041, AS 4458, AS 4037, AS/NZS 3992, AS/NZS 3788, AS 3873, ASME BPVC VIII, API 579 / ASME FFS-1, PD 5500, EN 13445

Work Health and, Safety laws and regulations require that certain types of plant used in workplaces need to be registered before they can be put into service in the workplace.

Certain types of high-risk plants used in mining need to have their designs registered before items of plant built according to those designs can be put into service. Once a design is registered, any number of items built according to that design can be made.

Item registration is a separate requirement for certain types of plant where on-going maintenance and inspection is necessary to help ensure safety. Where item registration applies, each item of plant needs to be registered.

What is Design Registration?

Plant design registration helps ensure the safety of plant made according to a design. Registering a design demonstrates that a formal design and verification process has been followed. In preparing an application, the plant designer must follow the technical standards and meet an equivalent level of safety.

An independent verifier must confirm that the design meets these technical standards or equivalence. Design registration requirements do not extend to the environment into which the plant is put into service. The plant user must satisfy that an item of plant is appropriate or adequate for the specific environment in which it is deployed.
