This document specifies the requirements for the safety of persons and property, provides guidance for the protection of the environment and establishes procedures for the operation, maintenance and repair of refrigerating systems and the recovery of refrigerants. The term "refrigerating system" used in this document includes heat pumps. This Part 3 of the EN 378 series is applicable to the installation site (plant space and services). It specifies requirements on the site for safety, which can be needed because of, but not directly connected with, the refrigerating system and its ancillary components. This document applies: - to refrigerating systems, stationary or mobile, of all sizes except to vehicle air conditioning systems covered by a specific product standard e.g. ISO 13043; - to secondary cooling or heating systems; - to the location of the refrigerating systems; - to replaced parts and added components after adoption of this standard if they are not identical in function and in the capacity. Systems using refrigerants other than those listed in of prEN 378‑5 are not covered by this document .This document does not apply to goods in storage.This document is not applicable to refrigerating systems which were manufactured before the date of its publication , except for extensions and modifications to the system which were implemented after publication.This document is applicable to new refrigerating systems, extensions or modifications of already existing systems, and for existing stationary systems, being transferred to and operated on another site.This document also applies in the case of the conversion of a system for another refrigerant type, in which case conformity with the relevant clauses of EN 378 parts 1, 2, 3 and 5 and prEN ISO 5149‑4 is assessed.

This document specifies criteria for safety and environmental considerations of different refrigerants used in refrigeration and air conditioning.This part of EN 378 specifies the classification and selection criteria applicable to refrigerating systems.These classification and selection criteria are used in prEN 378‑1, prEN 378‑2, prEN 378‑3 and ISO 5149‑4:2022. Product family standards dealing with the safety of refrigerating systems take precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.

ISO 11135:2014 specifies requirements for the development, validation and routine control of an ethylene oxide sterilization process for medical devices in both the industrial and health care facility settings, and it acknowledges the similarities and differences between the two applications.

This International Standard defines terms related to quality assurance of culture media and reagents and specifies the requirements for the preparation of culture media and reagents intended for the microbiological analysis of food, animal feed, and samples from the food or feed production environment as well as all kinds of water. These requirements are applicable to all categories of culture media and reagents prepared for use in laboratories performing microbiological analyses. This document also sets criteria and describes methods for the performance testing of culture media and reagents. The document is applicable to end-users, commercial bodies, non-commercial bodies and labs preparing their own media. This covers all formats of culture media and reagents. The principles covered in this Standard, as described above, can be equally applied to the preparation, storage and performance testing of culture media and reagents (used in the intended analysis as described above) that are not captured in international Standards; this includes proprietary culture media, or other methods. The criteria for the performance of those culture media and reagents will be described within those other methods or in the manufacturers’ certificates.

This document is directly applicable to pulsed X-radiation with pulse duration of 0,1 ms up to 10 s. This range covers the whole range used in medical diagnostics at the time of publication. Some specifications may also be applicable for much shorter pulses; one example is the air kerma of one pulse. Such a pulse may be produced, e.g. by X-ray flash units or high-intensity femtosecond-lasers. Other specifications are not applicable for much shorter pulses; one example is the time-dependent behaviour of the air kerma rate. This may not be measurable for technical reasons as no suitable instrument is available, e.g. for pulses produced by a femtosecond-laser. This document specifies the characteristics of reference pulsed radiation for calibrating and testing radiation protection dosemeters and dose rate meters with respect to their response to pulsed radiation. At this point, it is only concerned with the characteristics of single pulses. Single pulses are the most difficult for dosemeters to measure. Determining the dose for repeated pulses is easier, but still more difficult than for continuous radiation, i.e. the performance of the dosemeters when measuring repeated pulses lies between these extremes. The radiation characteristics includes the following: a) time-dependent behaviour of the air kerma rate of the pulse; b) time-dependent behaviour of the X-ray tube high voltage during the pulse; c) uniformity of the air kerma rate within a cross-sectional area of the radiation beam; d) air kerma of one radiation pulse; e) air kerma rate of the radiation pulse; f) repetition frequency. This document does not define new radiation qualities, but uses those radiation qualities specified in existing ISO and IEC standards. Instead, this document gives the link between the parameters for pulsed radiation and the parameters for continuous radiation specifying the radiation qualities. It does not specify specific values or series of values for the pulsed radiation field but specifies only those limits for the relevant pulsed radiation parameters that are required for calibrating dosemeters and dose rate meters and for determining their response depending on the said parameters. The pulse parameters with respect to the phantom-related quantities were determined using conversion coefficients according to ISO 4037 (all parts). This is possible as the radiation qualities specified in existing ISO and IEC standards are used. A given reference pulsed X-ray facility is characterized by the parameter ranges over which the full specifications and requirements according to this document are met. Therefore, not all reference pulsed X-ray facilities can produce pulses covering the same parameter ranges.

This document specifies the design, testing and marking requirements for spring loaded pressure relief valves (PRV), for use in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders of water capacity of 0,5 l up to and including 150 l. These PRVs can be either an integral part of a cylinder valve (see EN ISO 14245 [4] and EN ISO 15995 [5]) or a separate device.

This document covers additively manufactured stainless steel components using full-melt powder bed fusion such as electron beam melting and laser melting. The components produced by these processes are used typically in applications that require mechanical properties similar to machined forgings and wrought products. Components manufactured to this specification are often, but not necessarily, post processed via machining, grinding, electrical discharge machining (EDM), polishing, and so forth to achieve desired surface finish and critical dimensions. This document is intended for the use of mechanical engineers to size equipment, purchasers or producers, of additively manufactured components for defining the requirements and ensuring component properties. This document does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

This document specifies the minimum functional and performance requirements for respiratory infection prevention devices (RIPDs). RIPDs are intended to reduce the emission of infective agents from the user’s airways into the environment, and also reduce exposure to the user from inhalation of infective agents. RIPDs are intended for use by everybody.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the mass concentration (μg/g) of tyre and road wear particles (TRWP) in soil or sediment environmental samples.

This document establishes principles for soil or sediment sample collection, the generation of pyrolysis fragments from the sample, and the quantification of the generated polymer fragments. The quantified polymer mass is used to calculate the concentration of TRWP in soil or sediment. These quantities are expressed on a TRWP basis, which includes the mass of tyre tread and mass of road wear encrustations, and can also be expressed on a tyre rubber polymer or tyre tread basis.

NOTE Tyre and road wear particles are a discrete mass of elongated particles generated at the frictional interface between the tyre and roadway surface during the service life of a tyre. The particles consist of tyre tread enriched with mineral encrustations from the roadway surface

This document applies to hearing aid fitting management (HAFM) services offered by hearing aid professionals (HAP) when providing benefit for their clients. The provision of hearing aids relies on the knowledge and practices of a hearing aid professional, to ensure the proper fitting and adequate service in the interest of the client with hearing loss. This document specifies general processes of HAFM from the client profile to the follow-up through administering, organising and controlling hearing aid fitting through all stages. It also specifies important preconditions such as education, facilities and systems that are required to ensure proper services. The focus of this document is the services offered to the majority of adult clients with hearing impairment. It is recognized that certain populations with hearing loss such as children, persons with other disabilities or persons with implantable devices can require services outside the scope of this document. This document generally applies to air conduction hearing aids and for the most part also to bone conduction devices. Hearing loss can be a consequence of serious medical conditions. Hearing aid professionals are not in a position to diagnose or treat such conditions. When assisting clients seeking hearing rehabilitation without prior medical examination, hearing aid professionals are expected to be observant of symptoms of such conditions and refer to proper medical care. Further to the main body of the document, which specifies the HAFM requirements and processes, several informative annexes are provided. Appropriate education of hearing aid professionals is vital for exercising HAFM. Annex A defines the competencies required for the HAFM processes. Annex B offers a recommended curriculum for the education of hearing aid professionals. Annex C is an example of an appropriate fitting room. Annex D gives guidance on the referral of clients for medical or other specialist examination and treatment. Annex E is a recommendation for important information to be exchanged with the client during the process of HAFM. Annex F is a comprehensive terminology list offering definitions of the most current terms related to HAFM. It is the intention that these annexes be helpful to those who wish to deliver HAFM of the highest quality.

This document specifies the test methods for respiratory infection prevention devices (RIPDs). RIPDs are intended to reduce the emission of infective agents from the user’s airways into the environment, and also reduce exposure to the user from inhalation of infective agents. RIPDs are intended for use by everybody regardless of facial morphology or ability.

This document defines the grades and the corresponding requirements for ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons. This document specifies five grades of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron by a classification based on mechanical properties measured on machined test pieces prepared from cast samples. One grade also has additional but optional requirements for room temperature and notched-impact. This document also specifies two grades by a classification as a function of hardness. This document does not cover technical delivery conditions for iron castings. NOTE For further details, see EN 1559-1:2011 and EN 1559-3:2011.

This document specifies minimum performance classification and labelling requirements for protective clothing designed to provide protection against: - specified chemicals in the workplace, and - unidentified chemicals in emergency situations. Protective clothing against chemicals including solids, airborne particles, aerosols, liquids, and gases is addressed by this document. Protective clothing items covered by this document include full body and partial body. The area of protection is denoted in the marking requirements. The ISO 16602 series allows for a modular approach. This document sets the general requirements and the rules for applying the modular approach. The other parts focus on requirements and classification from design, chemical, physical properties and full garment testing perspectives. The seams, joins and assemblages attaching the components (including accessories) are included within the scope of this series of standards. ISO 16602-6 provides a Selection, Care and Maintenance guide to help the end-user selection process. Chemicals such as violently air sensitive reagents, unstable explosives and cryogenic liquids have not been considered since protection against these additional hazards is beyond the scope of this standard. Particulate protection is limited to physical penetration of the particulates only; permeation of solids is not considered. This document does not address components such as gloves, boots, eye/face protection devices and respiratory protective devices as their performance criteria are given in other standards. However, when these components are an integral part of the protective clothing ensemble or are tested as part of an ensemble, supplementary requirements may be provided in this standard. This document does not specifically address non-chemical hazards, such as biological and infective agents, thermal (flame, heat or cold) hazards, explosive hazards, and ionizing radiation hazards as specific requirements are covered by other relevant standards. The type of equipment specified in this series of standards is not intended for total immersion in liquids. However, additional protection may be integrated as a specific module based on the respective standard (e.g. meeting both ISO 16602-1 & ISO 11612 in a multi-risk suit). It is not the intent of this series of documents to be exhaustive and address all situations.

This document specifies the performance classification and test methods for materials used in chemical protective clothing, including gloves and footwear. The gloves and boots should have the same minimum chemical protective barrier performance requirements as the fabric when an integral part of the clothing. This is a reference standard to which chemical protective clothing performance standards may refer in whole or in part, but this standard is not exhaustive in the sense that other parts of ISO 16602 may well require testing according to test method standards which are not included in this standard. While these performance levels are intended to relate to the usage to which the chemical protective clothing is to be put, it is essential that the chemical protective clothing manufacturer or supplier indicates the intended use of the protective clothing. It is similarly important that the user (specifier) carries out a risk assessment in order to establish the correct protective performance levels for the intended task.
