Does a claim of meeting a standard mean all required clauses were assessed?
A report covers the scope it states, and each of the company's reports states its own.
The Intertek reports print a scope of work on the first page, naming the standard, its edition and the article tested: UL 900, Safety for Air Filter Units, 8th edition dated April 21, 2015, testing on a C-POLAR panel filter, and the same form of words for the bag filter and the fan coil filter. The ULC reports do the same for ULC-S111-13, Standard Method of Fire Tests for Air Filter Units, 5th edition December 2013. That line is what was assessed. The company names the laboratory for each report it cites, with the report number and the standard where the report prints them. A standard named in a scope line is the standard the test was run to. It is not a statement that every clause of that standard was assessed on every article the company makes.
