On January 19, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine was informed that the "Catalogue of Type Inspection of Imported Measuring Instruments of the People's Republic of China" (hereinafter referred to as the new catalog) was announced on January 13 and will be implemented as of August 1.

It is understood that the content of the new catalog covers more than 220 categories in 75 categories, including rangefinders, thermometers, scales, flow meters, pressure meters, material testing machines, vibration and shock measuring instruments, noise measurement and analysis instruments, environmental and protection measurement (rate ) Meters, spectrophotometers, water quality analyzers and other high-tech measuring instruments that are in short supply in China's national economic construction.

The new catalog announced this time was organized and revised by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine in accordance with Article 4 of the "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Imported Measuring Instruments of the People's Republic of China".

Six features of the new catalog

The AQSIQ Metrology Department started the formulation of the new catalog in March 2003. The formulation of the new catalog has been officially announced after repeated research, modification and discussion. The new catalog has the following characteristics:

Clarified the scope of application. It is reported that the items included in the new catalogue must go through the measurement instrument license, type approval and import measurement instrument verification. The catalogue of working measuring instruments that are subject to mandatory verification shall be implemented in accordance with existing regulations. The catalogue of special measuring instruments shall be drawn up by the measurement agency of the relevant department of the State Council and reported to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, and will be announced separately. The management of medical ultrasound sources, medical laser sources, and medical radiation sources shall be implemented in accordance with the "Notice on Clarifying the Scope of Supervision and Management of Medical Ultrasound, Laser, and Radiation Sources" (Technical Supervision Bureau Quanfa [1998] No. 49). As of the date of publication of the catalog, measuring instruments that have not been included in the new catalog will no longer be subject to a measuring instrument license, type approval, or import measuring instrument verification.

The technical basis is clear. It is understood that there are 128 items in the original catalog without technical basis, accounting for 21.4%. The 75 measuring instruments listed in the new catalog have a clear technical basis, corresponding to a total of 209 national measurement verification regulations and calibration specifications. The determination of whether it belongs to the measuring instruments listed in the new catalogue shall be based on the scope of application of the corresponding national metrological technical regulations. Relevant technical issues may be consulted with the corresponding national professional metrological technical committee. This basically meets the requirements of the Administrative Licensing Law.

Reduced the number of appliances. There are a total of 75 measuring instruments listed in the new catalog, covering 209 national measuring technical specifications, the number is about 1/3 of the original.

Added new items. With the development of social economy, new measuring instruments have emerged, such as new types of measuring instruments such as geodetic GPS receivers, which are included in the new catalog this time. In the future, with economic development and technological innovation, measuring instruments will continue to be updated and endless. Therefore, the catalogue should also be relatively stable and dynamically managed. For some measuring instruments involving trade settlement, security protection, medical and health care, environmental monitoring, etc., the catalogue should be adjusted in due course, and the national metrological verification regulations should be formulated to adapt to economic development. need.

Standardize the name. In previous catalogs, there were often cases where the naming was not uniform and irregular. The new catalog adopts all the names in the national metrology technical regulations, and the naming is more standardized and the classification is more reasonable, such as categorizing various weighing instruments into balance, non-automatic weighing instrument, automatic weighing instrument, weighing sensor, weighing display and so on.

The directory is still large. At present, there are 75 items in the new catalogue, only 1/3 of the original catalogue, but compared with developed countries, the catalogue is still relatively large. The number of measuring instruments controlled by the relevant national laws is: 20 items in Canada, 21 items in the United States, 29 items in Germany, 26 items in Japan, 16 items in South Korea and 35 items in Austria.

The original catalog is too large

Since the implementation of the "Measuring Law of the People's Republic of China", the type approval of domestic measuring instruments, the license of measuring instruments and the verification of imported measuring instruments are carried out in accordance with the "Catalogue of Measuring Instruments Managed by the People's Republic of China". "Review Catalog of Imported Measuring Instruments of the Republic" was conducted. The quality and technical supervision department implements measurement supervision and management in accordance with the above catalogue according to law, and plays an active role in ensuring the advancement and practicability of measurement instruments entering the market.

However, according to expert analysis, there are some problems in the management of measuring instruments at present, mainly: the management scope specified in the catalog is too large, and the actual management is not in place; for some projects, the testing ability is insufficient, or only some projects can be tested, and the testing technology cannot be guaranteed. In the actual supervision process, the type evaluation of some measuring instruments has no technical basis and is difficult to implement in operation; some new products of measuring instruments that are constantly emerging should be included in the scope of legal management, but not included in the catalog. In particular, with the continuous deepening of reform and opening up and the establishment of a market economy system, some new situations have emerged. For example, the management scope of domestic production and imported measuring instruments is inconsistent, the domestic management scope is large, and the import management scope is small, which does not comply with WTO / TBT. The "equal national treatment" principle stipulated in the agreement; in particular, the implementation of the "Law on Administrative Licensing" on July 1, 2004 requires government departments to administer strictly in accordance with the law, and the above-mentioned problems cannot meet the requirements of the Administrative Licensing Law.

At present, China has joined the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the management of measuring instruments must conform to the national conditions of China and the requirements of the WTO / TBT agreement; China is a member of the International Organization for Legal Metrology (OIML) and must be active Adoption of OIML international recommendations. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the original catalog as soon as possible and formulate a new catalog to solve the existing problems in order to promote the reform of the measurement management system and meet the needs of the development of the market economy.

In line with international practice

The newly compiled catalog of measuring instruments adheres to the basic principles of operability and international standards. The first is to uphold the principle of legitimate goals. In accordance with the WTO / TBT ’s principle of legitimate objectives, measurement instruments used in trade settlement, security protection, medical care, environmental monitoring, etc. are included in the catalog; the second is the principle of equal national treatment. The long-term goal is to use the same scope for the management of domestically manufactured measuring instruments and imported measuring instruments, sharing a catalog. The third is the principle of gradual adjustment. China's original legal measurement management scope is too large, and it must be gradually adjusted and gradually reduced. The fourth is the principle of operability. For the measuring instruments listed in the catalog, there must be clear management requirements and technical requirements, and there are currently valid national measurement technical specifications. The fifth is the dynamic principle. The catalogue should be relatively dynamic. After the new national metrological technical specifications are formulated and promulgated when necessary, additional items are included in the catalogue. The sixth is the principle of integration with international practice. Refer to the management catalogs of relevant international organizations and some countries (especially major international powers). Among them, the International Organization for Legal Metrology (OIML) has published internationally recommended measuring instruments, which are generally important measuring instruments and should be the preferred measuring instruments for inclusion in the new catalog.

Meet administrative licensing requirements

In October 2003, April, July and December 2004, the Metrology Department of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine held the quality and technical supervision departments, technical institutions, and production of some provinces, districts, and cities in Hangzhou, Beijing, Guizhou, and Dalian. The special symposium on the adjustment of the new catalogue participated by the enterprise, and experts were organized to discuss, and the opinions of more than 100 departments and related industries and units were solicited nationwide. After research, most of the opinions were adopted, and new contents were added according to the principles of preparation , Merged similar projects, standardized the titles of measuring instruments, deleted items without technical basis, added definitions and descriptions of uses, etc., and finally formed a draft of the new catalog for comments. In August 2005, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine submitted a written report to the State Council to approve the new "Catalogue of Measuring Instruments Managed by the People's Republic of China". The type approval project solves the problem of inconsistent management scope of domestic production and imported measuring instruments. According to the opinion of the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council, the General Administration will first publish the “Catalogue of Measuring Instruments Managed by the People ’s Republic of China (Type Approved Part)”. The Catalogue of Type Examination of Imported Measuring Instruments of the People's Republic has been gradually adjusted to meet the requirements of the current administrative license.

Does not contain measurement standards and reference materials

At present, the Measurement Division of the AQSIQ is negotiating with the relevant departments on the announcement concerning the adjustment of the catalogue for the review of the type of imported measuring instruments, which will be announced after consensus. After several adjustments, the plan is consistent with the scope of domestic management. There are no measurement standards in the new catalog.

In the future, the measurement standards will be evaluated and managed in accordance with the "Measurement Standards Evaluation Method". The new catalog does not contain reference materials. In the future, the standard materials will be managed in accordance with the "Standard Material Management Measures". There are some sensors and secondary instruments in the original catalog. Since sensors and secondary instruments cannot be used as independent products, they should not be included in the catalog; but there are international recommendations, such as weighing sensors, included in the new catalog .

The transition period is from the date of publication of the new catalog to April 30, 2006. During the transition period, the quality and technology supervision bureaus of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall vigorously organize the publicity activities of metrology laws and regulations and the new catalog to help all sectors of the society study and implement the metrology law in depth and implement the new catalog.

Related catalogs at home and abroad

The new catalogue collects catalogues of measuring instruments brought into legal management at home and abroad. The relevant domestic catalogues include: "Catalogue of Measuring Instruments Managed by the People's Republic of China in accordance with the law", "Detailed Catalogue of Working Measuring Instruments Mandated by the People's Republic of China", "Detailed Catalogue of Type Examination of Imported Measuring Instruments of the People's Republic of China",
