Abstract

Pyrotechnic articles shall be classified by manufacturers according to their type of use, their purpose and their level of risk, including their noise level, and the notified bodies shall confirm the classification as part of the conformity assessment procedures. In accordance with the relevant national legislation, the national authority must take all appropriate measures to ensure that pyrotechnic articles do not endanger the health and safety of persons. If the national market surveillance authority has sufficient reasons to consider that a pyrotechnic article poses a risk to the health, safety of persons or other aspects of the protection of the public interest, it shall carry out an assessment of the pyrotechnic article concerned. INCD INSEMEX Petrosani is an accredited institution, to carry out such technical expertise according to the legislation in force harmonized with the European regulations, having also adequate modern facilities for fulfilling the requirements of the standards in the field. The paper also highlights the results of the modernization of the methodological and practical infrastructure as well as the technical facilities that underlie the substantiation of the new approach in terms of optimizing and increasing the quality of the process.

Introduction

INCD INSEMEX Petroșani is an institution authorized to carry technical expertise in accordance with the legislation in force harmonized with European regulations and having appropriate modern facilities to meet the requirements of standards in the field. The purpose of this paper is to describe how the pyrotechnic article is evaluated (verified) in order to be correctly classified in the category to which it belongs. In order to be correctly classified in the category to which it belongs, the pyrotechnic articles are subject to an evaluation regarding: Operation according to the manufacturer's instructions, and if there are no adequate instructions from the supplier on how to operate, the type of object (for example: fireworks, Roman candle, fireworks battery, etc.) will be established in advance and tested on the basis relevant own instructions,. The legal framework applicable to the field of pyrotechnic articles, regarding the placing on the market and safe use of these products, is regulated both at national level (by Law 319/2006 on safety and health at work with subsequent amendments and completions; Law 126 / 1995 on the regime of explosives and the Technical Implementation Norm, as subsequently amended and supplemented, Decision 1102/2014), as well as at European level (by Directive 2013/29 / EU) laying down the principles to be applied to ensure the legality of explosives, the marketing, handling and use of pyrotechnic articles, as well as the registration and authorization to carry out operations with them, in order to avoid personal injury, material damage or damage to the environment.
