FAQ — Domestic pressure cookers
1. Do aluminium and stainless lines share one licence?
Often separate scopes when construction differs materially. Confirm before combining.
2. Are spare lids in scope?
If sold as part of the certified product system, control them under the same quality system.
3. Importer model?
Overseas factories typically need FMCS/ISI pathways when QCOs apply.
4. Label claims?
Whistle/induction claims must match tested construction.
Disclaimer: Scheme rules, Quality Control Orders, SABER lists and destination regulations change. Confirm the current notification and lab scope for your exact model before booking irreversible tests.
