This document specifies performance requirements for protective clothing made from flexible materials, which are designed to protect the wearer’s body, except the hands, from heat and/or flame. For protection of the wearer’s head and feet, the only items of protective clothing falling within the scope of this document are gaiters, hoods, and overboots. However, concerning hoods, requirements for visors and respiratory equipment are not given. The performance requirements set out in this document are applicable to protective clothing which could be worn for a wide range of end uses, where there is a need for clothing with limited flame spread properties and where the user can be exposed to radiant or convective or contact heat or to molten metal splashes. This document is not applicable to protective clothing that is specified by other International Standards (see Introduction).

Building on the consolidated definitions of NBS, this document proposes a classification of NBS to support the development of an agreed terminology, the basis of the standardization process.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the potential cation exchange capacity (CEC) of soil buffered at pH = 8,1 and for the determination of the content of exchangeable sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium in soil.

This document is applicable to all types of air-dried soil samples.

ISO 11161:2007 specifies the safety requirements for integrated manufacturing systems (IMS) that incorporate two or more interconnected machines for specific applications, such as component manufacturing or assembly. It gives requirements and recommendations for the safe design, safeguarding and information for the use of such IMSs. ISO 11161:2007 is not intended to cover safety aspects of individual machines and equipment that may be covered by standards specific to those machines and equipment. Therefore it deals only with those safety aspects that are important for the safety-relevant interconnection of the machines and components. Where machines and equipment of an integrated manufacturing system are operated separately or individually, and while the protective effects of the safeguards provided for production mode are muted or suspended, the relevant safety standards for these machines and equipment apply.

This document specifies minimum requirements for self-contained closed-circuit breathing RPD for escape (short: oxygen escape RPD)

a) chemical oxygen type

— potassium superoxide (KO2),

— sodium chlorate (NaClO3) and

b) compressed oxygen type. This document does not apply to RPD for work and rescue and to diving apparatus.

Laboratory and practical performance tests are included for the assessment of compliance with the requirements.

This document defines the terms and definitions in the field of biodiversity. It includes terms from the observation of biodiversity loss (climate change, pollution, invasive species, erosion, soil degradation, deforestation, etc.) to the means of action to protect it (measurement, monitoring and assessment, restoration, conservation and protection, and sustainable use). The three dimensions are covered: genetic diversity, species diversity and ecosystem diversity. This document is applicable to organizations related to biodiversity, including governments, NGOs, companies, and organizations supporting biodiversity research and practice.

This document specifies a procedure for obtaining a migration water to determine odour, flavour, colour and turbidity for products made from organic materials intended to come in contact with water for human consumption (drinking water) and used in piping and storage systems. Such products include pipes, tanks, reservoirs, fittings, ancillaries and their coatings both for site applied and factory-made products. This document is applicable to products to be used under various conditions for the transport, storage and distribution of water intended for human consumption and raw water used for the manufacture of water intended for human consumption. This document specifies a test method comprising a set of procedures. The use might be dependent on the relevant national regulations and/or the system or product standards.

ISO 12100:2010 specifies basic terminology, principles and a methodology for achieving safety in the design of machinery. It specifies principles of risk assessment and risk reduction to help designers in achieving this objective. These principles are based on knowledge and experience of the design, use, incidents, accidents and risks associated with machinery. Procedures are described for identifying hazards and estimating and evaluating risks during relevant phases of the machine life cycle, and for the elimination of hazards or sufficient risk reduction. Guidance is given on the documentation and verification of the risk assessment and risk reduction process. ISO 12100:2010 is also intended to be used as a basis for the preparation of type-B or type-C safety standards. It does not deal with risk and/or damage to domestic animals, property or the environment.

This document gives information and guidance on the evaluation and assessment of hand-transmitted shock. For the purposes of this document, isolated shock is any impactive or impulsive vibration that the machine or tool user experiences as a sequence of individual events (single shocks) linked by periods of no, or low vibration. This document provides guidance on the identification, measurement, evaluation and possible health effects of hand-transmitted shock vibrations containing vibration energy up to the frequency range covered by ISO 5349-1 (approximately 6,3 Hz to 1 250 Hz). Note: It is recognised that shock vibration often includes substantial levels of high-frequency vibration energy. The measured peak values of HTS are likely to be higher if the upper frequency limit is increased. High-frequency shocks, composed of vibrations at frequencies greater than 1 250 Hz, are dealt with in Draft ISO/DTS 5349-4.

This International Standard specifies a method for assessing the heat penetration resistance of materials intended for use in clothing to protect against large splashes of molten metal. It provides specific procedures for assessing the effects of splashes of molten aluminium, molten cryolite, molten copper, molten iron and molten mild steel. The principle of the test method is applicable to a wider range of hot molten materials than those for which specific procedures are set out, provided that appropriate measures are applied to protect the test operator. It is important to note that good resistance of a material to a pure molten metal does not guarantee a good performance against any slag that can be present in a manufacturing process.

This document specifies product characteristics, test methods and performance criteria for point detectors using carbon monoxide sensing (CO fire detectors) for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings and civil engineering works.

This document defines rules for extended applications, provides guidance, and, where appropriate, specifies procedures, for variations of certain parameters and factors associated with the design of internal non-loadbearing ceilings constructed of metal faced sandwich panels that have been tested in accordance with EN 1364-2, which could generate a classification in accordance with EN 13501-2. This document applies to,double skin metal faced sandwich panels, which have an insulating core bonded to both facings as defined in EN 14509 not stabilizing a whole building or parts of it.

This document specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of parts of curtain walling and of the perimeter seal. It examines the fire resistance to internal and external fire exposure of: - the spandrel panel, i.e. downstand, upstand or a combination thereof; - the perimeter seal; - the fixing of the framing system (anchoring) used to attach the curtain walling to the floor element; - combinations thereof. NOTE 1 This document does not test fire spread that can be caused through cavities in the test specimen, i.e., inside of the mullions (see note to 9.1.2.3.3). Results from tests according to this document form the basis for classification of curtain walling type A (see 3.3 for definition). For curtain walling type B (see 3.4 for definition) results can be used to determine fire resistance of parts of a curtain walling to increase the field of application when previously tested to EN 1364-3. For intended classification EW and for corner/faceted specimens EN 1364-3 can be used. This document does not cover double skin façades, over-cladding systems and ventilated façade systems on external walls. It does not deal with the reaction to fire behaviour of curtain walling. This document is intended to be read in conjunction with EN 1363-1 and EN 1363-2 as well as EN 1364-3 for curtain walling type B. As per the type of curtain walling covered by this document, these are the ones included in EN 13119. NOTE 2 Annex A gives informative guidance on the principles of testing parts of curtain walling and the test method. NOTE 3 When tests are made to examine single elements (e.g. perimeter seal), those elements are to be installed as part of a curtain walling system.
