Quality Control & Assurance
Quality Control & Assurance for LED Luminaires
From approved components to final shipment, each stage is controlled through defined checkpoints, measurable criteria and retained quality records.
Production Quality System
MANI Production
Quality Gates
MANI applies four connected quality gates—from incoming materials to final shipment.
Each gate has a defined purpose, ensuring that quality is controlled throughout production rather than checked only at the end.

Incoming Control
IQC
Incoming Material Release
Critical materials and components are verified against approved specifications before they are released to production.
Process Control
IPQC
Process & Assembly Control
Wiring, electrical connections, alignment, sealing and workmanship are monitored at defined production checkpoints.
Product Validation
FQC
Finished Luminaire Validation
Every finished luminaire completes functional, electrical, appearance and mandatory aging verification before packaging.
Shipment Control
OQC
Shipment Release Control
Product information, accessories, packaging and quality records are checked against the confirmed order before shipment.
A product advances only after the requirements of its current quality gate have been confirmed.
Product Verification
What We Verify
Before Shipment
The quality gates explain when quality control takes place. These verification areas explain what MANI checks before a luminaire is approved for shipment.
Applicable checks are selected according to the product construction, intended application and confirmed configuration.
Electrical Safety Verification
Electrical protection is checked against the luminaire construction and requirements of its intended market.
- Dielectric withstand capability
- Earth continuity where grounding is required
- Abnormal leakage or equipment warnings
- Cables, terminals and electrical connections
Electrical Performance Validation
Measured electrical behavior is compared with the approved product specification and agreed operating conditions.
- Input voltage, current and power consumption
- Power deviation against agreed tolerance
- Applicable power-factor requirement
- Driver output and operating stability
Photometric & Color Consistency
Optical performance is evaluated to confirm that the delivered light matches the intended product specification.
- Luminous flux and system efficacy
- CCT and CRI verification
- Light-output uniformity
- Visible color consistency within the batch
Emergency & Sensor Functions
Optional emergency and sensor functions are tested according to the confirmed product configuration.
- Emergency operation and indicator status
- Charging and discharge response where applicable
- Sensor activation and detection response
- Delay time and approved operating mode
Dimming & Control Response
Control behavior is checked to ensure predictable operation throughout the product’s specified control range.
- ON/OFF, 0–10V, DALI or SCR functions
- Smooth brightness transitions
- Stable output without visible jitter
- Response after repeated switching
Structure, Sealing & Assembly
Mechanical construction is inspected for secure assembly, correct fit and application-specific protection details.
- Dimensions and mounting construction
- Fasteners, connectors and strain relief
- Housing, joints and sealing components
- Waterproof details where required
Appearance & Finish Inspection
The completed luminaire is examined for visible defects, assembly cleanliness and finish consistency.
- Scratches, contamination or deformation
- Loose parts and internal foreign objects
- Housing and surface-finish consistency
- Diffuser, cover and component fit
Identification & Traceability
Product identity and traceability information are confirmed before the completed order is released.
- Model and electrical label information
- Batch or serial traceability code
- Certification and origin markings where applicable
- Accessories and documentation consistency
The exact inspection scope is confirmed against the approved product specification, order requirements and intended application.
Component Control
Controlled Components.
Verified Compatibility.
Key Components & System Compatibility
Reliable performance depends not only on individual parts, but also on how those parts operate together as a complete luminaire system. MANI selects components against approved optical, electrical, thermal and application requirements.

Brand availability depends on the approved product configuration, project requirements and current component supply.
LED Chips
LED chip options are selected according to the required light output, color quality, thermal conditions and intended product application.
LED Drivers
Drivers are evaluated as part of the complete luminaire system for electrical load, thermal behavior, control compatibility and continuous operating stability.
Cabling & Materials
Cables, insulation, optical materials, sealing components and structural materials are selected according to product construction and destination-market requirements.
Laboratory Capability
Testing Equipment &
Validation Facilities
Dedicated Equipment for Product Validation
MANI uses professional testing and measurement equipment to support product development, engineering validation, qualification and ongoing quality assurance.

Environmental Simulation
Water ingress, temperature, humidity and accelerated weathering equipment support application-specific environmental evaluation.
Optical Measurement
Photometric equipment supports evaluation of light distribution, luminous output, efficacy and color performance.
Aging & Endurance
Controlled operating and aging systems help assess product stability under defined load and duration conditions.
Testing methods are selected according to product construction, intended application, development stage and the approved validation plan. Not every laboratory test is performed on every production unit.
Documented Assurance
Evidence That Supports
Project Approval
Certifications, Documentation & Warranty Assurance
Relevant quality and compliance documentation can be provided to support technical review, project approval and tender requirements.
Document availability depends on the selected product, configuration and destination market.
Verified Documentation
Certifications & Compliance Documents
Product-specific compliance documents can be provided according to the confirmed configuration and destination-market requirements.
- CE Declaration of Conformity
- RoHS compliance report
- EMC test report where applicable
- Electrical safety / LVD report
Protection & Photometric Reports
Test reports and photometric files support verification of environmental protection, impact resistance and lighting performance.
- IP65 / IP66 / IP69K test reports
- IK08 / IK10 impact test reports
- IES photometric files
- Flux, efficacy, CCT & CRI reports
Engineering & Quality Records
Supporting engineering and production records may be supplied for project evaluation, approval and quality follow-up.
- Aging and switching-cycle records
- Electrical parameter inspection records
- Component and material documents
- Patent documents where applicable
Documentation is matched to the approved product configuration. A certificate or report for one configuration may not apply to every product variant.
Quality Assurance That Continues After Delivery
MANI provides a minimum five-year warranty supported by verified engineering, controlled component selection, structured production inspection, mandatory aging testing and final shipment release. Applicable terms are confirmed with the selected product and order.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quality Control &
Assurance FAQ
Questions Buyers Ask Before Approval
Clear answers about unit inspection, laboratory testing, batch consistency, documentation and project-specific quality planning.
01 Do you inspect every LED luminaire?
Yes. Every finished MANI luminaire completes final functional verification and mandatory aging testing before packaging.
Additional controls are applied during material receiving, production, assembly and shipment preparation.
02 Are all laboratory tests performed on every unit?
No. Different tests serve different purposes.
Every finished luminaire completes functional and aging verification. Laboratory, qualification or destructive tests are selected according to the product type, development stage and approved inspection plan.
03 How does MANI maintain batch-to-batch consistency?
Consistency is controlled through approved product specifications, controlled component selection, production checkpoints, measured electrical and optical parameters, final inspection and retained quality records.
