     Consumer rating tests. The dummy has been designed to withstand impact with closing velocities up to an average Euro NCAP level. Since January, the Q6 is being used in the Euro NCAP protocols together with the Q10 dummy. Other NCAP organizations like A-NCAP will follow at a later point in time.

Certification Equipment Requirements The frequency of the Q6 certification and the number of tests that can be performed between certifications strongly depends on the type and severity of the tests in which the dummy is used, as well as the test frequency. Which certification tests have to be carried out depends on the dummy application (ECE-R44, NCAP, Airbag), and is different for frontal and side impact tests.
