13、ation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that commit

14、tee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and

15、those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part

20、h the requirements of the performance standards.The basic classification, which applies to all RPD, will be marked in the following order:a) protection class;b) work rate class;c) respiratory interface class.Some examples for marking of commonly known RPD are included in Annex B.For Supplied Breatha

21、ble Gas RPD, the classification also includes gas capacity class.For Filtering RPD, the classification also includes a particle filter class and/or the gas filter types and classes.RPD designated to be used for Special Applications are further classified accordingly.The special applications identifi

22、ed are Firefighting, Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN), Marine, Mining, Abrasive blasting, Welding, and Escape.Each RPD will have an individual classification based on its performance specified in the relevant performance standards.Explanations of the classification and examples

23、of the classification of RPD are given in the Annexes.The following definitions apply in understanding how to implement an ISO International Standard and other normative ISO deliverables (TS, PAS, IWA): “shall” indicates a requirement; “should” indicates a recommendation; “may” is used to indicate t

24、hat something is permitted; “can” is used to indicate that something is possible, for example, that an organization or individual is able to do something.3.3.1 of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (sixth edition, 2011) defines a requirement as an “expression in the content of a document conveying crite

25、ria to be fulfilled if compliance with the document is to be claimed and from which no deviation is permitted.”3.3.2 of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (sixth edition, 2011) defines a recommendation as an “expression in the content of a document conveying that among several possibilities one is recom

26、mended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others, or that a certain course of action is ISO 2016 All rights reserved vPD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/TS 16973:2016(E)preferred but not necessarily required, or that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is dep

32、rms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 16972 apply.4 Mode of operationThere are two modes of operation that RPD may employ to supply breathable gas to the wearer. These modes are specified in Table 1.Table 1 Mode of operationMode of operation Mea

33、ns of providing breathable gas to the wearer Typical examples of RPDBreathable gas supplyThe RPD supplies the wearer with breathable gas from a remote supply of breathable gas or from breathable gas stored in, or regenerated by, the RPD.Compressed airline breath-ing apparatus, self-contained breathi

34、ng apparatus (SCBA)FiltrationThe RPD removes gases, vapours and/or particles from the ambient air depending on the air-purifying element (filter) used. These can be assisted or unas-sisted devices.Half mask with gas filter(s)Filtering facepiece ISO 2016 All rights reserved 1PD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/T

35、S 16973:2016(E)Combined RPD are devices which have both filtration and breathable gas supply modes. Combined RPD can have different classes depending on the operating method being used. An example will be an RPD which can operate as a compressed airline breathing apparatus and has an auxiliary filte

36、r.Multi-functional RPD are RPD which have different methods of operation within either filtration or breathable gas supply modes.Multi-functional RPD can have different classes depending on the operating method being used.An example would be an RPD which can operate as a compressed airline breathing

37、 apparatus with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus. Another example is an assisted filtering RPD which can operate as an unassisted filtering RPD when not powered.The performance requirements for breathable gas supply RPD and filtering RPD are specified in the relevant performance stand

38、ards.5 Protection classes (PC)RPD shall be classified by Protection Class.The Protection classes are derived from the results of a laboratory Total Inward Leakage (TIL) test in accordance with ISO 16900-1 and the relevant performance standards. These classes are provided in Table 2.Table 2 Protectio

39、n classesProtection ClassTILMAX%PC1 20PC2 5PC3 1PC4 0,1PC5 0,01PC6 0,001NOTE TIL is the ratio of the concentration of a test agent in the breathing zone inside the RPD compared with the concentration outside the RPD, expressed as a percentage. This is the level of total inward leakage of the RPD as

40、measured in the laboratory under standard defined conditions. TIL levels used in RPD evaluation are given in Table 2 and Figure A.1.6 Work rateRPD shall be classified by Work rate class, as determined by the RPD manufacturer. The Work rate classes are derived from the results of a laboratory test, W

41、ork of breathing, and the related performance requirement, in accordance with ISO 16900-12 and the relevant performance standards.These classes are W4, which is equivalent to ISO/TS 16976-1 work class 8 (maximal), W3, which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work classes 7 and 6 (extremely heavy and very-ve

42、ry heavy), W2 which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work classes 5 and 4 (very heavy and heavy), and W1, which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work classes 3, 2 and 1 (moderate and light).For further information, see Annex D. RPD designated for special applications may have performance requirements with minim
