This standard applies to equipment manufactured to editions of API 6A in which a product specifcation level (PSL) identifes the quality, material, and testing requirements for a specifc product. Equipment identifed as manufactured in conformance with API 6A prior to April 1986 (API 6A, 15th Edition) is outside the scope of this document. This standard is not applicable to onsite repair at the equipment installation site. 2 Normative References The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

4 General 4.1 Quality Management System The repairer/remanufacturer shall conduct repair/remanufacture operations under a quality management system that conforms to an internationally recognized quality management standard. Where API 6A requirements for quality control are invoked in this document, and API 6A has sampling provisions, sampling shall not be allowed. Each individual part shall be inspected. 4.2? Repair? and? Remanufacture? Specifcation? Levels? (RSL) The repair and remanufacture specifcation level (RSL) shall be designated to provide the appropriate quality control requirements for the repair and remanufacture of wellhead and tree equipment. NOTE 1 PSL is applicable to new product. RSL is applicable to repaired or remanufactured product and may not be representative of the original product PSL or the RSL of the previous repair/remanufacture cycle. NOTE 2 RSL indicates the level of quality control and documentation associated with the repair and remanufacture of equipment and does not represent the technical suitability of equipment for specifc service or performance requirements.
