Test equipment will be calibrated in accordance with the equipment manufacturer’s instructions and records of such calibration checks will be retained for inspection as necessary Arrangements must be made to ensure the safe custody of speed limiter sealing equipment, i.e. sealing pliers, seals and plaques and “plates”, when not in use The sealing pliers will have a unique seal code that shall be applied to all RSL seals or other sealing devices to identify the Authorised Sealer DD55381 Rev 03 18 RSL Fitting Centre Requirements – Records A register of road speed limiters sealed will be kept. This could be a file of speed limiter installation/calibration records. The register will show the following details: – Date of sealing (and location if approved as mobile Authorised Sealer) – Vehicle VIN/Chassis Number, Make and Model – Brief description of work carried out e.g. installation, calibration or repair – Set speed (mph or kph) – Tyre sizes (and ‘W’ factor of Tachograph if it is supplying the speed limiter signal) – Make of speed limiter – Serial number of the ECU or the calibrated speed controlling device – Name and signature of sealing fitter – Unique Authorised Sealer code, trading name and address Note: Authorised Sealer documentation will be retained and available for at least 5 years from the date when the speed limiter work was undertaken DD55381 Rev 03 19 RSL Fitting Centre Requirements – Access to Premises & Quality Assurance VOSA Examiners will be permitted, on production of their authority if so required, during normal business hours, to examine the register, to inspect the equipment and to satisfy themselves that the Conditions of Authorisation are being complied with If the Authority of a Fitting Centre to Seal RSL systems in withdrawn by VOSA or if the Centre ceases to operate, then the Centre MUST surrender all RSL sealing equipment and “plates” to the Sponsor VOSA Authorised Sealers must have their operation to be independently monitored for quality assurance. A Sponsored Authorised Sealer’s quality assurance monitoring may be performed by the Sponsoring speed limiter manufacturer or an agent nominated by him. In the case of independent Authorised Sealer, quality assurance monitoring will be performed by an independent agent nominated by him The quality assurance inspection must check that all the Conditions of Authorisation are being complied with The maximum period between quality checks will be 18 months. As a minimum the check will ascertain whether all the Conditions of Authorisation are being complied with DD55381 Rev 03 20 RSL Vehicle Legislation - Initial PCV Legislation The first speed limiter law in the UK applied only to Coaches, defined as vehicles with more than 16 passenger seats, as follows: • Coaches registered on or after 01/04/1974, but before 01/01/1988 must be fitted with an RSL set at 112.65 km/h (70mph) Buses, defined as vehicles with more than 8 passenger seats, that have a gross vehicle weight of 7501 Kg or greater have speed limiter restrictions as follows: • Provided the buses were registered between the inclusive dates of 01/01/1988 and 30/09/2001 they must be fitted with an RSL set at 100 km/h All Buses and Coaches that were registered before 01/04/1974 DO NOT require a RSL system to be fitted DD55381 Rev 03 21 RSL Vehicle Legislation – Initial HGV Requirements Goods vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight of 12001 Kg or greater and that are capable of exceeding a speed of 90 km/h, have speed limiter restrictions as follows: • Provided the vehicles were registered between the inclusive dates of 01/01/1988 and 30/09/2001 they must be fitted with an RSL set such that the vehicles stabilised speed does not exceed 90 km/h All Goods vehicles of any gross weight, that were registered before 01/01/1988 DO NOT require a Road Speed Limiter system to be fitted DD55381 Rev 03 22 RSL Vehicle Legislation – 92/6/EEC Changes EU Council Directive 92/6/EEC, which was adopted on 10/02/1992, requires that Goods Vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight of 7501 Kg to less than 12001 Kg and that are capable of exceeding a speed of 96 km/h have speed limiter restrictions as follows: • Provided the vehicles were registered between the inclusive dates of on or after 01/08/1992 to 30/09/2001 they must be fitted with an RSL set such that
