Commissioned Evaluation
Commissioned evaluations determine whether the structure, performance and other factors of essential fire prevention equipment stipulated by national standards (excluding 12 products that are covered by mandatory inspections) comply with technical standards regulated by the national government following applications for requests using four evaluation methods (comprehensive evaluations, model evaluations, model optional evaluations, validated evaluations).
Commissioned evaluations can be classified into three types of evaluations according to the type of work conducted: quality evaluations, accreditation, evaluations of specific products.

Quality evaluation
●Quality evaluation items
Quality evaluation is commissioned evaluation work related to machinery and equipment provided for fire-fighting purposes based on various standards on request, and evaluates fire-fighting equipment including tools and equipment requiring voluntary indication.
・Power driven fire pumps (Voluntary indication)
・Fire hoses (Voluntary indication)
・Fire suction hose (Voluntary indication)
・Couplings (Voluntary indication)
・Aerosol type disposable fire extinguishers
・(Voluntary indication)
・Electric leakage fire alarm device (Voluntary indication)
・Auxiliary alarm device
・Transmitters
・Remote inspection devices
・Arson detect devices
・Fire alarm sounders (automatic fire alarms or short circuit fire alarms)
・Standby power supplies (automatic fire alarms or gas leakage fire alarms)
・Gas cartridges for fire extinguishers
・Indicator pressure gauge (stored-type fire extinguishers)
・Tank valves (fire extinguishers and fire extinguisher pressurization gas tanks)
・Extinguishing agents for fire
・extinguishing systems
・Residential sprinkler systems
・Fire fighting ladders
・Fire prevention connection equipment
・Hose layers
・Special fire vehicles related to fire pump vehicles and special fire fighting vehicles
・Portable pump truck
・Special fire fighting equipment undergoing overhaul
・Correction of remote inspection devices
・Visual alarm device
■Quality evaluation marking
* Tools and equipment requiring voluntary indication are provided with indication stating compliance with technical standards by manufacturers involved in manufacturing or importing work. Only products that comply and have been provided with voluntary indication conducted by the manufacturer can be sold or marketed. On request, JFEII conducts quality evaluations for tools and equipment requiring voluntary indication, and in addition to a voluntary indication, a quality evaluation compliance symbol is provided for products that JFEII deems to comply with standards.
●Accreditation
Perform appraisal of fire extinguishing devices and tools in fire extinguishing equipment to determine whether they meet technical standards, and then indicate JFEII approval on said devices and equipment.
Items showing JFEII approval do not need individual inspection during fire extinguishing inspections at time of installation to confirm performance.
・Automatic fire alarm equipment area alarm devices
・Emergency bells and automatic sirens for emergency alarm equipment
・Emergency public address systems for emergency alarm equipment
・Central control panel
・Package type automatic fire extinguishing systems
・Sprinkler systems using discharge-type heads
・Indoor fire hydrants
・Foam fire extinguishers for specific parking areas
●Evaluation of specific product
On request, fire prevention equipment with outstanding performance due to new technology, but without technical regulations or standards, can be evaluated as to whether or not it is superior in performance.
The evaluation is carried out by the Technical Appraisal Board of experts for special fire equipment.
Fire equipment approved by the evaluation are indicated as such. Currently, evaluations are carried out for the following equipments:
・Specific fire outbreak control devices (fixed fire extinguishers, impulse fire extinguishing guns, heads for fire detection)
・Specific warning evacuation devices (detection lifters, descending devices, descending lifts)
・Specific fire-fighting equipment (high pressure pumps)
