PTI's various standards and accreditations for EMI testing and reliability testing in Texas
NVLAP
PTI is registered with the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). NVLAP is an accreditation seal provided ultimately by the US Government:
NVLAP was established in 1976 by the US Government to provide a uniform way of ensuring the competence of testing laboratories, and provide an infrastructure of consistent testing standards for international compliance. The rules of NVLAP procedures are listed in 15 CFR Part 285. NVLAP operates an accreditation system that is compliant with ISO/IEC 17011: “Conformity assessment — General requirements for accreditation bodies accrediting conformity assessment bodies”. ISO/IEC 17011 requires that the competence of applicant laboratories be assessed by the accreditation body against all of the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025, General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.
Other Accreditations
- Dell 3rd Party Lab Certified
- VCCI Accepted (for Japan)
- New Zealand Ministry of Commerce
- Sandia National Laboratory Designated Calibration Source (DCS)
