SUMMARY
STEPS TO CERTIFY FAN PERFORMANCE
UNDER AMCA INTERNATIONAL’S CERTIFIED RATINGS PROGRAM
AMCA Seal can only be used in conjunction with AMCA Licensed Products.
This is a summary only. The Certified Ratings Program is fully described in AMCA Publications 11, 211 and 311.
Please read these Publications, particularly the Product Rating Requirement Subsections of Publication 211.
STEP 1 APPLY TO BECOME AN AMCA INTERNATIONAL MEMBER OR CRP AFFILIATE

(APPLICANT'S RESPONSIBILITY)
Newcomers to AMCA International’s Certified Ratings Program must first decide whether they
would like to become an AMCA International Member or a CRP Affiliate. Although it is usually
less costly to participate in the Certified Ratings Program as a Member, it is not necessary to
become an AMCA International Member in order to participate in the Certified Ratings Program.
Membership is limited to any business engaged in the design, fabrication, assembly and sale of
devices within the product scope of AMCA International. Information on membership can be
obtained by submitting a request to AMCA International’s Executive Director, or by completing the
Membership Interest Form located at http://www.amca.org/membership/join.asp, on AMCA
International's website.
If you are not eligible to become an AMCA International Member, or if you do not wish to become
an AMCA International Member, you must complete an application to become an AMCA
International CRP Affiliate. Applications are available from AMCA International upon request.
1 Rev. 9/07
STEP 2 SIGN LICENSE AGREEMENT – Publication 11, Section 6.1
License Agreements are signed only once, prior to the first product being certified.
Upon approval of the application, AMCA International will mail two License Agreements to the
Licensee Representative. Sign, witness and seal both copies and return them to AMCA
International. AMCA International will then sign, witness and seal both copies and return one
copy to you along with the License Appendix for your first product line after Step 11 is completed.
A product is certified only after a License Appendix has been issued by AMCA International.
Each certified product will have a unique License Appendix Number.
STEP 3 TESTING – Publication 11, Section 7.3

The fans may be tested in AMCA International’s Laboratory, an independent laboratory licensed
to perform tests for AMCA International, or in an AMCA International Accredited Laboratory.
Contact AMCA International’s Director of Laboratory Services to arrange for testing in AMCA
International’s Laboratory, or for information on AMCA International’s Laboratory Accreditation
Program.
Not every size of a product line needs to be tested. If there is a geometric proportionality
between several sizes, you may calculate the performance of the larger sizes from a smaller size
using the Fan Laws. Although the Licensee is responsible for selecting test sizes, the AMCA
International technical staff will assist in selection of test sizes.
STEP 4 APPLY FOR LICENSE AGREEMENT APPENDIX – Publication 11, Section 7.4 and 7.5
SUBMIT TO AMCA INTERNATIONAL:
A. Completed CRP-8 Forms signed by the Licensee Representative. Please visit

http://www.amca.org/crp/documents.asp to download a form. Please submit a separate
CRP-8 form for each product line.
B. Test data in conformance with the test standard used. These results must be corrected
to standard air density.
C. Performance curves of the test results with the test points identified.
D. Photographs of each test setup.
E. Dimensional drawings giving the dimensions listed in AMCA Publication 211, Annex A.
Marked photocopies of the appropriate drawings from Annex A are acceptable, or contact
AMCA International for a PDF version.

Subsection A4.1.
If the submittal is in conformance, the AMCA International staff will select a Precertification Test
Unit and e-mail a Precertification Check Test Request to the Licensee Representative. A
Precertification Test is not necessary if all tests were run in AMCA International’s Laboratory or
an independent laboratory licensed to perform tests for AMCA International. If the submittal is not
in conformance, the AMCA International staff will notify the applicant by e-mail of the items
required to complete the application.
STEP 6 PRECERTIFICATION CHECK TEST – Publication 11, Section 7.7

(Required if the tests were conducted in an AMCA International Accredited Laboratory)
A. Complete the Application and Agreement for Testing Service Form (TAF) using My
AMCA (unless otherwise instructed) and ship (prepaid) the Precertification Check Test
Unit to AMCA International. The Test Application Number should be marked on the
outside of the test unit and its crate.
B. Tests are scheduled after both the TAF and unit are received. AMCA International will
run the tests and notify the applicant of the results. If the test is unsatisfactory, AMCA
International will select an additional Precertification Check Test Unit.
STEP 7 SUBMIT PROPOSED CATALOG DATA – Publication 11, Section 7.8

The data may also be submitted with the CRP-8 form in Step 4 above, or as part of the catalog
proof copy in Step 9 below.
STEP 8 AMCA INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF PROPOSED CATALOG DATA – Publication 11,

Section 7.9 and 7.10
The AMCA International staff will review the proposed catalog data. If the proposed data is not
satisfactory, staff will notify the applicant by e-mail. If the proposed catalog data has been
verified as correct by AMCA International staff, a “Notice of Acceptability” will be sent by e-mail.
3 Rev. 9/07
STEP 9 SUBMIT CATALOG PROOF COPY – Publication 11, Section 7.11
Submit a proof copy of the catalog and/or electronic media to AMCA International staff for
verification of the performance data and conformance to the requirements of the Certified Ratings
Program. AMCA International will retain the proof copy of the catalog. Electronic versions of the
AMCA International Seal are available from AMCA International for use in catalogs.
STEP 10 AMCA INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF PROOF COPY – Publication 11, Section 7.12
The AMCA International staff will review the proof copy and notify the applicant by e-mail of any
necessary corrections or of the proof copy’s acceptability.
STEP 11 SUBMIT PRINTED CATALOG – Publication 11, Section 7.13

Submit one copy of the printed catalog and/or electronic media to the AMCA International staff
immediately prior to being released to the public.
STEP 12 AMCA INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF PUBLISHED CATALOG AND ISSUANCE OF

LICENSES – Publication 11, Section 7.14
The AMCA International staff will review the printed catalog and, if it is unchanged from the proof
copy shall issue an Appendix to the License Agreement for the product line.
In the event that the catalog does not meet the requirements of the program, the applicant shall
be notified immediately by e-mail of the discrepancy, advised not to distribute the catalog to the
public and a License Appendix shall not be issued. The applicant must then correct the
discrepancy and resubmit the catalog to the AMCA International staff for review and approval.
Note: This post-printing action will only happen if changes are made to the AMCA International
approved proof copy.
MANUFACTURING/PRODUCTION CHECK – Publication 11, Section 9.3
If the base tests are conducted on a prototype, AMCA International will request a Check
Test within one year after the License Appendix is issued. If the base tests are conducted
