Overview of ISO 16001 Certification
ISO 16001:2017 outlines the essential requirements and testing procedures for evaluating the performance of Object Detection Systems (ODSs) and Visibility Aids (VAs) used on earth-moving machinery. It covers aspects such as:
• Detection and visibility of objects and individuals in the detection area • Visual and audible alerts to operators and individuals in the detection zone • System reliability and performance • Environmental compatibility and system integration
This certification applies to machines defined in ISO 6165 and helps improve operator visibility using mirrors, ODSs, and VAs, especially when ergonomic limitations hinder direct sight. These systems alert operators to any person or object in the machine’s path—particularly during reverse operations. However, no system is foolproof, and users must be aware of both benefits and limitations as specified in the ISO standards.
Prerequisites for ISO 16001 Certification
• General Requirements: - Test for detection zone boundaries - specification of test bodies - evaluation process for test outcomes - object detection/false signal evaluation • ODS and VA Components: - Installation and placement of system parts - operator station monitors - ODS alert devices (visual and audible) - and machine-mounted external warnings • System Operation Requirements: - System activation during engine start or from standby - detection time and self-monitoring capability, alert disable functions - environmental/electromagnetic compatibility • Additional Requirements: - Object Detection System (sensors, alerts, evaluation units) - Visibility Aid (camera, monitor) - detection zone and test objects - system standby - job site integration - alert range
Procedure for ISO 16001 Certification
1. Optional Preliminary Audit – Conduct a voluntary inspection and document review to assess certification readiness.
2. Audit – Stage I – Evaluate eligibility via on-site audit, document analysis, and business review.
3. Audit – Stage II – Conduct detailed on-site assessment to examine the application of standards and efficiency.
4. Certification – Receive your ISO 16001 Certificate once all compliance criteria are successfully met.
