What is FAT / SAT Testing?
The Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) or Site Acceptance Testing is a process that evaluates the equipment during and after the assembly process by verifying that it is built and operating in accordance with design specifications. FAT/SAT ensures that the components and controls are working properly according to the functionality of the equipment itself. As the name suggests, this testing is performed at the factory.
FAT/SAT is typically conducted to assess any discrepancies and non-conformities, as well as develop a process for how they are to be handled. Deviations or abnormalities observed during testing are documented in a problem report and corrected prior to shipment.
The FAT/SAT is a customized testing procedure for different types of systems and the tests are executed before the final installation at the plant. The FAT/SAT is not a requirement but recommended to be carried out, according to the standard IEC 61511. FAT/SAT must be conducted in a thorough and forthright manner.
