BS EN 16630:2015EN 16630:2015 (E) 4 Introduction Outdoor fitness equipment is suitable for people who enjoy movement and want to actively engage themselves. The equipment should be designed to promote physical activi
23、ty across a wide range of abilities. Such activities could include cardiovascular, strength, toning, balance, coordination and flexibility exercises. When drafting this European Standard, the difficulties have been recognized to address safety issues by age criteria alone, because the ability to han
24、dle risks is based on the individual users level of skill. Also, age groups other than the intended ones will almost certainly make use of the outdoor fitness equipment. Therefore, it was decided to recommend the use of the fitness equipment for youths and adults or users with an overall height grea
25、ter than 1 400 mm and to specify safety requirements on this basis. This is necessary in order to produce a clear differentiation from playground equipment in accordance with the EN 1176 series. However, relevant requirements of this series have been taken into account wherever it was useful and pos
26、sible. The requirements in this European Standard assume that all users of the fitness equipment are aware of the limits of their physical capacity and are able to use the equipment unassisted. Provided that the equipment is used as intended, i.e. in accordance with the exercise instructions attache
27、d to each individual piece of equipment, it is assumed that single or multiple body parts are moved and are not incorrectly strained. As long as there is human interaction with moving equipment there is a residual risk that cannot be further mitigated in order to maintain the function. However, a sl
28、ightly incorrect execution is considered not to cause severe health consequences for the user. In the case of improper use, bruises, sprains and occasional bone fractures caused (e.g. by falls) might have to be accepted. In correspondence with the available opportunities, it is advisable to offer in
29、troductory courses at regular intervals, in which trained experts explain the individual pieces of equipment, their handling and their possible effects on the body and mind. The design of outdoor fitness equipment is subject to constant development. Therefore, the design of particular types of equip
30、ment might not be specified in this European Standard, however the general requirements of this European Standard apply to all equipment. BS EN 16630:2015EN 16630:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This European standard specifies general safety requirements for the manufacture, installation, inspection and mainten
31、ance of permanently installed, freely accessible outdoor fitness equipment. This standard does not cover electrically driven equipment, functional training facilities (typically with unrestrained weights) nor military style obstacle courses. The equipment is intended for youths and adults or users h
32、aving an overall height greater than 1 400 mm to promote fitness by using the equipment to exercise. Equipment covered by this standard is not playground equipment for children (EN 1176 series), indoor stationary training equipment (EN 957 series) or free access multi-sports equipment (EN 15312) eve
33、n if it meets the requirements of each of these standards. NOTE In this standard “permanently installed outdoor fitness equipment” is simply called “fitness equipment”. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensa

If installed in connection with playground equipment, on pl
46、aygrounds or similar installations, they shall be separated from general playing activities by an appropriate distance, fencing or other structural measures. 4.2 Materials 4.2.1 General Materials shall be selected and treated in such a way that the stability of the equipment manufactured from them i
47、s not affected before the next relevant maintenance inspection. Materials should be manufactured in a professional manner. NOTE The conditions relating to certain materials in this standard do not imply that other equivalent materials are unsuitable in the manufacture of fitness equipment. The selec
48、tion of materials and their use shall be in accordance with the appropriate European Standards. Special attention shall be given to surface coatings to avoid the risk of toxicity. In the choice of a material or substance for fitness equipment, consideration shall be given to the eventual disposal of
49、 the material or substance in regard to any possible environmental toxic risks. 4.2.2 Flammability To prevent fire and similar dangers, materials known to produce surface flash shall not be used. 4.2.3 Timber and associated products Components from timber or timber products shall be designed in such a way that precipitation can drain or drip off freely and water accumulation is avoided. In cases of ground contact, one or more of the following methods shall be used: a) use of timber species with sufficient natural resistance in accordan
