In this material, using examples, you can roughly estimate the cost of Certification of devices that have both an average and a maximum set of technologies and protocols.
There are a lot of devices that use more than three technologies, and we use them daily. The cost of certification of such devices can vary greatly, below we will consider examples of the cost of certification of such devices.
The devices whose certification cost we will consider below include GSM communicators for heat meters (heat energy) with Wi-Fi / Bluetooth and a radio frequency module 433 Mhz or 868 Mhz, car head units with Wi-Fi / Bluetooth / GPS and GSM (3G, 4G, 5G) module and smart home system.
Consider the approximate cost of certification for smart watches and smart wearable electronics, smartphones, fire alarms, interactive whiteboards, payment terminals and data processing terminals, tablets, laptops, all in one computers, and much more.
How the cost of Certification is formed (what is taken into account and affects the formation of the price) with examples, you can find out by clicking on the link.
In this material, we want to recall the main aspects of price formation and give a detailed example of certification pricing.
So, all calculations are carried out by the conformity assessment body based on Resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of UFCraine "On approval of the Rules for determining the cost of work on assessing compliance with the requirements of technical regulations, are carried out by designated conformity assessment bodies and recognized independent organizations" dated July 12, 2017 No. 514
An individual approach is applied to each client, in connection with which the figures appearing in the formulas, as well as the result of the calculations, can vary both up and down, depending on various factors described on this site. This article is for informational purposes only.
In turn, Unus Finis carries out all calculations for services individually for each customer, in accordance with internal regulations and the level of complexity, which is described in the article "Tariffs of Unus Finis services ".
Abbreviations used in the article:
- The work of the certification body (the work of departments, accounting, contractual, etc.) - "WCB"
This amount is regulated by the internal orders of the certification body and is approximately 10,000 UAH.
- Unus Finis Turnkey Services – UFC
The cost of services A. Complex”, without taking into account the individual characteristics of the devices and the wishes of the customer. This amount will be 22,000 UAH.
- Calculation of the cost of testing according to Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of UFCraine “On approval of the Rules for determining the cost of work on assessing compliance with the requirements of technical regulations, carried out by designated conformity assessment bodies and recognized independent organizations” dated July 12, 2017 No. 514 - "PKMU 514"
You can learn more about this method of calculating the cost of testing by clicking on the link above.
- Charger test - "ZU"
As a rule, the test time for network and car chargers is approximately equal and amounts to approximately 4000 UAH in monetary terms.
- The procedure for confirming the compliance of all devices with the model range (radio technologies, technological drawings, electrical circuit diagrams, the principle of operation, microcircuits, etc.) - "PPS"
This procedure is carried out in order to be able to extend the tests already carried out on one sample (all samples in the model range must have identical microcircuits) to all samples in the model range. This is done in order not to carry out the same tests on all samples of the model range. It all depends on the specific device and customer requirements. In this case, the assessment of compliance with the model range will be equal to 3000 hryvnia.
An example of calculating the cost of certification - 1
Given: Smartwatch by Samsung Galaxy Watch 3
Technical data (only those that are important for testing and calculating the cost of certification):
- Data interface:
- Positioning: GPS
- Charger (not included): 5V - 2A
Calculate the cost of certification using the formula:
"WCB" + "PKMU 514" = UAH 68,000 (excluding the cost of "MC")
WCB + PKMU 514 + UFC = UAH 90,000 (turnkey)
An example of calculating the cost of certification - 2
Given: A smartphone with a full range of communications
Technical data (only those that are important for testing and calculating the cost of certification):
- Data interface (protocols):
- Positioning: GPS
- Charger (included): 5V - 2A
Calculate the cost of certification using the formula:
“WCB” + “PKMU 514” + “ZU” = UAH 147,000 (excluding the cost of “UFC”)
"WCB" + "PKMU 514" + "ZU" + "UFC" = UAH 169,000 (turnkey)
We remind you that all the figures given in this article are for guidance only and may vary both up and down. All calculations are carried out individually for each customer, taking into account all his wishes and possibilities.
