Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe consumer safety specification addresses window fall prevention device
3、s that protect againstpotential falls by children age five and under through open windows not designated for emergencyescape or rescue in installations more than 75 ft (23 m) above ground level in multiple family dwellingbuildings since windows at these heights are beyond the reach of rescue ladders
4、 currently in use.Window fall prevention devices currently available include window opening control devices, windowWindow Opening Control Devices (WOCDs), window fall prevention screens, and some types ofwindow guards. These devices use different strategies to prevent children from falling through o
5、penwindows. Window opening control devices restrict the size of the open area of the window so that itis too small for a young child to fall through. They do this by allowing the window opening to be setat a predetermined position. Window fall prevention screens and fall prevention window guardsprov
6、ide a barrier to prevent a child from falling through an open window. This safety specificationdoesis not apply tointended for devices applied to windows installed in one and two family dwellings.A special study3 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indicates that young childrenare at high
7、 risk of death and serious injury from window falls. Children age five and younger accountfor a higher percentage of window fall fatalities and injuries.4Security from forced entry is not within the scope of this safety specification and is not the intendedfunction of any of the devices referred to
8、herein. Window fall prevention devices usually differ inpurpose and application from security/burglar bars. The general purpose of a window fall preventiondevice is to prevent a child age five or younger from falling through an open window. The generalpurpose of a security bar is to prevent unlawful
9、 entry through a window. Generally window fallprevention devices and security bars are two separate devices. However, a security bar could be usedas a fall prevention device if it meets the requirements of this safety specification.The CPSC has advised caregivers to open windows less than 4 in. when
10、 children are present as onemeans to prevent child falls through open windows. Window opening control devices provide a meansthat the window, when opened in an initial operation, will satisfy the CPSC recommendation to openless than 4 in.The 4-in. dimension is drawn from related building codes and s
11、tandards for openings inguardrail assemblies,5 and is universally accepted as the appropriate dimension to prevent a child frompassing through balcony or guard railing systems. An additional operation is required to open thewindow further. The additional operation must be performed without the use o
12、f keys, tools or specialknowledge. Security from Window opening control devices provide a means that the window, whenopened in an initial operation, will satisfy the CPSC recommendation to open less than 41 This safety specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F15 and is the direct r

United States1in.forced6entry is not within the scope of this standard and is not the intended function of any of thedevices referred to herein.Window Opening Control Devices (WOCDs) are not covered by this safety specification to avoidconfusion with devices under the scope of Specification
19、 F2006 for non-emergency escape and rescueopenings versus devices under the scope of Specification F2090 where the devices have releasemechanisms for emergency escape and rescue openings. WOCDs are a term to be used solely fordevices that comply with Specification F2090 in which the devices are rele
20、asable for sash operationto allow escape and rescue from an emergency.1. Scope1.1 This safety specification establishes requirements for devices intended to address the risk of injury and death associated withaccidental falls through open windows by children five years old and younger.NOTE 1This saf
21、ety specification is not intended to meet the unique requirements of Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA).1.2 This safety specification applies only to window fall prevention devices, including window opening control devices,window window fall prevention screens, and fall prevention window guards t
22、hat are to be used on windows that are not intendedfor escape (egress) and rescue (ingress).NOTE 2Specification F2090 addresses window fall prevention devices (releasable) (releasable), including window opening control devices(WOCD(s) for windows intended for emergency escape and rescue and any othe
23、r window not covered by this safety specification.1.3 This safety specification applies only to devices intended to be applied to windows installed at heights of more than 75 ft7(23 m) above ground level in multiple family dwelling buildings. This safety specification is not intended to apply to win
24、dowsbelow 75 ft (23 m) because all windows below 75 ft (23 m) that are operable could be used as a possible secondary means ofescape.8NOTE 3Users of this safety specification should consult local authorities for other requirements that may apply to the use or installation, or both, ofproducts covere
