ANSI Role: The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) reviews standards to ensure they meet due process and consensus criteria. Consensus is achieved when substantial agreement is reached among directly and materially affected interests, which is more than a simple majority but not necessarily unanimity. ANSI does not develop standards or provide interpretations of them.
Voluntary Use: The use of American National Standards is voluntary. They do not preclude the manufacture, marketing, purchase, or use of products, processes, or procedures that do not conform to these standards.
Caution: This standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. ANSI requires periodic action to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw standards.
