20、(E) Foreword This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN /TC 85, “Eye-protective equipment“, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at th

21、e latest by May 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2002. This document replaces EN 168:1995. This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential

22、requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative annex ZA, which is an integral part of this standard. The annexes A and ZA are informative. According to the CENKENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bo

23、und to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. 4 EN 168:2001 (E) 1 Scope This European Standard specifies non-

24、optical test methods for eye-protectors, the requirements for which are contained in other European Standards. Alternative test methods may be used if shown to be equivalent. The optical test methods are given in EN 167 A definition of terms is given in EN 165. 2 Normative references This European S

28、(see Figure 1) shall be a steel or rigid plastic cylinder with an internal diameter of (35,O f 0,l) mm and an outside diameter of (41,O f 0,l) mm. The cylinder shall be inserted into, or be an integral part of a steel base. The ocular shall be cushioned by a silicone seating ring firmly attached to

29、the top of the tube. This seating ring shall be made of silicone rubber of (40 f 5) 1.R.H.D and shall have an inside diameter of (35,O f 0,4) m and cross sections of 3 mm x 3 mm nominal dimensions. The combined mass of the support shall be at least 12 kg. A load ring of mass (250 f 5) g is placed on

30、 the ocular. The ring has an inside diameter the same as that of the support tube, and any convenient outside diameter. A silicone seating ring having the same dimensions and hardness as the one attached to the top of the support tube is placed between the load ring and the ocular. A piece of carbon

31、 paper on a piece of white paper is placed at the base of the 1,5 mm deep cavity in the ocular support (see Figure 1). For curved oculars with a cylindrical component, the test support tube and load ring shall be curved to conform to the concave and convex surfaces of the ocular respectively, and th

32、e dimensions of 3 mm and 43 mm shall apply to the deepest point of the circular support. (See Figure 1). If the ocular is of insufficient dimensions to enable its entire periphery to be adequately supported, suitable adaptor sleeves shall be used. 5 EN 168:2001 (E) 3.1.2 Procedure Centre the intende

33、d points of impact of the ocular on the support tube. Adjust the apparatus so that a 22 mm nominal diameter steel ball of 43 g minimum mass falling from ( 1,3$,3 ) m strikes the ocular within a 5 mm radius from the centre of the support tube. This height will provide an impact speed of approximately

34、 5,l m/s. Impacts shall be directed at the visual centre(s) of the oculars. For unmounted oculars covering one eye and for which the visual centre cannot be established, then the geometric centre shall be used. NOTE Visual centre is as defined in EN 166. The impacts are carried out in the following

35、conditions: a) with the ocular heated to (55 f 2) OC and maintained at this temperature for at least 1 h; b) with the ocular cooled to a temperature of (-5 f 2) OC and maintained at this temperature for at least 1 h New oculars shall be used for each individual impact and for each temperature condit

36、ion. The impact shall be applied within 30 s of temperature conditioning. The test shall be carried out at (23 f 5) OC.

38、o be projected at a 3.2.1.2 specified point on the eye-protector at a speed of approximately 5,l m/s. 3.2.2 Procedure The eye-protector to be tested shall be placed on the appropriate head-form in the position corresponding to normal use. If the frame only is to be assessed then oculars meeting the

39、requirements of 3.1 (increased robustness) shall be fitted to the frame. A sheet of carbon paper on top of a sheet of white paper is attached to the head-form behind the eye-protector. The head-form and eye-protector assembly is positioned in the test apparatus. The ball is projected at the points o

40、f impact defined in 3.2.3. For spectacles with no lateral protection the ball shall strike the sidearm within the prescribed lateral protection area on a vertical plane through the impact centre. (See 3.2.3). The impacts are carried out in the following conditions: a) with the eye-protector heated t

41、o (55 f 2) “C and maintained at this temperature for at least 1 h; b) with the eye-protector cooled to a temperature of (-5 f 2) “C and maintained at this temperature for at least 1 h. New eye-protectors shall be used for each individual point of impact and for each temperature condition. The impact

42、 shall be applied within 30 s of temperature conditioning. The tests shall be conducted at an ambient temperature of (23 f 5) “C 3.2.3 Points of impact There are four impact points, and these are defined with respect to the head-form rather than the eye-protector. The ball is aimed at these impact p

43、oints with the eye-protector mounted in the normal use position. The impact points shall be considered as any single point within a 10 mm radius of one of four impact centres. These impact centres are denoted by an asterisk (*) in Figure 11. With respect to the test schedule contained in EN 166, the

44、 four impact points are defined as follows: 1. the left eye frontal; 2. the right eye frontal; 3. the left eye side; 4. the right eye side. For frontal impacts at the two eye centres the ball is projected normal to the vertical axis of the head-form and parallel to its optical axis along each line o

45、f sight. For lateral impacts the head-form is rotated about its vertical axis by 90“ (left and right) from the frontal impact position. The head-form may be moved horizontally and vertically to select any single impact point lying within 1 O mm of the specified impact centres. As stated in 3.2.2, ne

46、w eye-protectors shall be used for each individual impact. 7 EN 168:2001 (E) 4 Test for minimum robustness of oculars with filtering effect and cover plates New specimens are used for this test. 4.1 Apparatus See Figure 2. 4.1.1 Loading device A steel ball of 22 mm nominal diameter is fastened to th

47、e lower end of a tube, whose length is 70 mm nominal. The total loading mass is such that the force acting on the ocular is (100 f 2) N. 4.1.2 Specimen support The support for the ocular (see Figure 2) shall be a steel cylinder with an internal diameter of (35,O f 0,l) mm and an outside diameter of

48、(41,O f 0,l) mm. The cylinder shall be inserted into, or be part of, a steel base. The specimen is placed between two seating rings made of silicone rubber of (40 f 5) I.R.H.D. having an inside diameter of (35,O f 0,4) mm and cross sections of 3 mm x 3 mm nominal dimensions. The silicone seating rin

49、gs are fixed to the steel supporting plate and the load ring respectively. If the specimen ocular is of insufficient dimensions to enable its entire periphery to be adequately supported, suitable adaptor sleeves shall be used. The load ring shall have a mass of (250 f 5) g. By its weight, it presses the upper silicone seating ring against the upper surface of the specimen. A sheet of carbon paper on top of a sheet of white paper is placed on the supporting steel plate at the base of the 13 mm deep cavity. 4.2 Procedure 4.2.1 The test is carried out at (23 f 5) OC. 4.2.2 Align
