Acceptance / prove the agreed basis
Bottled-Water Filling Machine FAT Acceptance Checklist
A FAT should test the contracted machine with approved bottles and caps under a written method. A short demonstration without recorded inputs and results is not a comparable acceptance test.
Answer first
Agree the reference bottle, cap, continuous run time, output calculation, reject treatment, fill-level method, cap checks, alarm tests and document list before the FAT date. Use the builder below to create a project draft.
Tool 04 / FAT draft
Build a preliminary acceptance checklist
Select the items required for your project, add the sample basis, then download a plain-text draft for supplier review.
Not suitable for
Boundaries that need a different platform or review
- Using an unapproved bottle or cap on test day
- Counting downtime without a predefined rule
- Signing only from a supplier video with no result sheet
Inputs required
Evidence to provide before confirmation
- Approved bottle and cap revision
- Contracted reference output and test duration
- Acceptance method for level, leakage and cap result
- Required documents, parts and interface simulations
Machine function
What happens at this machine or decision boundary
- The checklist links every acceptance item to evidence.
- The run record separates planned stops, external starvation and machine faults.
- Open points remain assigned before shipment release.
Configuration decisions
Options that must appear in the proposal
- Witnessed, remote or recorded FAT
- Sampling frequency and acceptance limits
- Which formats and changeover are tested
- How unresolved items affect shipment
Interface requirements
Upstream, downstream and utility handovers
- Simulated infeed and outfeed conditions
- Product-water supply used for the test
- Electrical voltage and control-interface basis
Buyer risks
Questions to close before order
- No agreed output calculation
- Samples that differ from production supply
- Missing manuals, drawings, spares or nameplate data
FAT checks
How to verify the agreed basis
- Approved samples, continuous run and actual output
- Bottle transfer, fill-level consistency, leakage and capping result
- Alarm/stop logic, change parts, spares, electrical documents and nameplate
Quotation scope
What the commercial offer should state
- FAT location, duration and witness responsibility
- Included samples, utilities and operators
- Acceptance record and open-point process
- Re-test, packing and shipment release responsibility
