28、a series concerned with personal protective equipment designed to protect against the risks arising from the use of hand-held chain saws. No personal protective equipment can ensure a100% protection against cutting from a hand-held chain saw. Nevertheless, experience has shown that it is possible to
29、 design protective clothing which offers a certain degree of protection. Different functional principles may be applied in order to give protection. These include: a) chain slipping: on contact the chain does not cut the material; b) clogging: fibres are drawn with the chain into the drive sprocket
30、and block chain movement; c) chain braking: fibres have a high resistance to cutting and absorb rotational energy, thereby reducing the chain speed. Often more than one principle is applied. 1 Scope This European Standard Part 2 specifies the test methods to be used to assess the resistance of leg p
31、rotectors to cutting by hand-held chain saws and other properties. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated references, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed
32、 hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

36、rd 50 % of the leg circumference 3.2 rear (of a leg protector) the backwards 50 % of the leg circumference NOTEDepending upon design and construction, and due to many layers of clogging material, it may be difficult to establish the front and the rear of a leg protector. It is nevertheless of great
37、importance to establish the front and the rear before pretreatment and testing. 4 Test specimens 4.1 Number of test specimens For the design of EN381-5 in normal cases the total number of test specimens for testing are as follows. Design A and B a) If only cleaned by washing: four pairs of complete
38、leg protectors. b) If only cleaned by dry-cleaning: four pairs of complete leg protectors. c) If cleaned both by washing and dry-cleaning: eight pairs of complete leg protectors. Depending on construction and pretreatment more test specimens may be needed. Design C a) If only cleaned by washing: fiv
39、e pairs of complete leg protectors. b) If only cleaned by dry-cleaning: five pairs of complete leg protectors. c) If cleaned both by washing and dry-cleaning: ten pairs of complete leg protectors. Depending on construction and pretreatment more test specimens may be needed. It is allowable to use th
40、e same test specimens for cutting as were used for testing dimensional change.EN381-2:1995 4 BSI 06-1999 4.2 Size designation of test specimens For trousers the size designation according to Table1 of EN340:1993 shall be: waist girth92 to96. For other leg protectors a size designation comparable to
41、waist girth93 shall be chosen. 5 Pretreatment Except in the specific cases detailed below, all the test specimens are washed and dried5times before testing. This washing shall be according to procedure 2 A of ISO6330 and the drying by tumble-drying at a temperature not exceeding70 C (procedure E). E
42、xceptions to this treatment are permitted in the following cases. a) Where the leg protectors are marked as unsuitable for washing, but suitable for dry-cleaning. In such cases, the test specimens shall be dry-cleaned five times before testing. In principle the dry-cleaning shall be performed in acc
43、ordance with the conditions described in9.1 “Process for normal materials” of ISO3175:1979, i.e.using conditioned test specimens, perchloroethylene with surfactant, addition of emulsified water, cleaning for15minutes at(30 3) C, draining and extracting, rinsing for5minutes with pure solvent, and dra
44、ining and final extraction. Tumble dry with an outlet temperature not exceeding60 C. No restorative finishing procedure. b) Where the test specimens are marked as suitable for both washing and dry-cleaning. In such cases, the test shall be carried out on both washed test specimens and dry-cleaned te
45、st specimens, (2 sets of test specimens). c) Where the test specimens are marked as unsuitable for tumble-drying. In such cases, the test specimens shall be washed by the method described above, then line-dried (procedure A of ISO3175). 6 Testing for dimensional change Number of test specimens: one
46、test specimen for each pretreatment. Test procedure: the test procedure for determination of dimensional stability in washing and drying as stated inISO6330 and following the manufacturers care labelling regarding cleaning information. One test specimen shall be subjected to five washing processes,
47、or the alternative processes mentioned under 5 a), 5 b) or 5 c). After each washing the leg protectors shall be reshaped by hand, but not reshaped by ironing. Dimensional change is assessed in accordance with ISO3759 for measuring, ISO5077 for washing and ISO3175 for dry-cleaning, where it is noted
48、that complete garments are used as test specimens. Figure2 inISO3759 is representative for the measurements with the addition that the measurements shall be made at a place with protective material. During measurement of L and W, distances representing length and width, the leg protectors shall be s
49、tretched with a force of20N. This can be done with a line load for L and a width-stretcher for W. L and W shall be measured with an uncertainty of measurement of 5mm. The line load of20N shall be applied between the waist and bottom of the leg protector leg, and it shall be applied through at least3clamps in each end, whereby the load is distributed. The clamps shall in the bottom fix to protective padding. The width-stretcher shall stretch the leg protector leg over a distance of500mm with a force of20N. 7 Checking
