EAC Declaration Scheme 5D and Industrial Safety Expertise (EPB)

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY: EAC DECLARATION 5D & EPB EXPERTISE – Last update: 25.02.2026

The legacy Rostechnadzor (RTN) Permit to Use has been officially replaced by a more streamlined yet technically rigorous system. For equipment destined for hazardous production facilities in Russia and the EAEU, the primary compliance path is now the EAC Declaration according to Scheme 5D. This is often supplemented by the Industrial Safety Expertise (EPB), a technical audit that ensures complex industrial systems meet federal safety laws. TechSert specializes in bridging the gap between standard certifications and the high-level safety requirements of the Russian heavy industry and energy sectors.

The 5D Scheme is a specialized conformity assessment path within the EAC system designed specifically for equipment used at hazardous production facilities for the EAC Declaration. It is used when testing of the final product cannot be performed until it is fully installed at the end-user’s site.

KEY FEATURES OF SCHEME 5D:
• TYPE EXAMINATION: An accredited body conducts a technical evaluation of the “type” (design) of the equipment.
• ON-SITE VALIDATION: Final compliance is verified through industrial safety expertise once the equipment is operational.
• REGULATORY SCOPE: Typically applied to complex machinery under TR CU 010/2011 where safety cannot be fully assessed in a laboratory.

While the Rostechnadzor permit is gone, the Industrial Safety Expertise (EPB) remains a vital document for the Russian market. It is an official technical audit conducted by accredited experts to confirm that a device or facility adheres to Federal Law No. 116 “On Industrial Safety of Hazardous Production Facilities.”

WHEN IS AN EPB REQUIRED?
• BEYOND EAC SCOPE: For equipment not covered by existing Technical Regulations but used in high-risk environments.
• LIFE EXTENSION: To verify the safety of equipment that has reached its calculated service life.
• AFTER REPAIRS: Following major technical modifications or accidents to ensure structural integrity.
