Required (see 3.1), unless a previous test of a similar unit is considered applicable and is extended by the
qualifying activity.
4.4 Type tests. Type tests are all required tests of fan-motor units of each type and size by producers whose
product of the type being tested is listed in the Qualified Products List. Type tests shall consist of the tests specified
in Table III and shall be conducted prior to production on each new fan-motor unit, unless a previous test of a
similar unit is considered applicable and is extended by the qualifying activity. In general, such extensions will be
granted if the fan-motor unit is of similar construction and the motor is of identical manufacture and of identical
frame size, provided that the heating and speed of all motors shall be determined by heat and speed tests with the
motor installed in the fan.
4.5 Periodic tests. Periodic tests are required to assure continuing satisfactory operation of identical units.
When specified (see 6.2), periodic tests shall consist of the tests specified in Table III.
