Amonix achieves ISO 9001-2008 and IEC 62108 certifications

Amonix Inc of Seal Beach, CA, USA, which makes utility-scale concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) systems using III-V multi-junction solar cells, has received ISO 9001:2008 and IEC 62108 certifications, representing “key milestones in Amonix’ quality management system and field operation durability”.

To become ISO 9001:2008 compliant, Amonix worked with a leading ISO accreditation agency that leveraged its aerospace and defense program knowledge to conduct a thorough assessment to be eligible for submission to the International Organization for Standardization. The certification of compliance recognizes that the policies, practices and procedures ensure consistency and the highest quality standards in the products provided to customers.

Receiving IEC 62108 compliancy verifies that Amonix CPV solar power systems are capable of withstanding extreme climate conditions. Amonix says that this certification further proves its long-term and reliable operation in utility-scale applications.

“Implementing an ISO-inspired, robust quality management process adds immense value to our development and manufacturing plans,” says Azmat Siddiqi, VP of quality & reliability. “ISO achievement was accomplished in record time based on an existing solid foundation,” he adds.
