The organ that makes Inspection is delegated by INMETRO (National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology).

According to the agent Marcos Luís Pereira, equipment maintenance should be made mandatory by an authorized licensee. "Every year, January to December, we visited all stations and returned without regularly scheduled time and date, regardless of maintenance.

Once tested, the bombs that are approved receive stamps and stickers INMETRO and metrological verification of the report. Having irregularity, the metering pump is banned and the company notified. The owners have notified within ten days to make the repairs.
