30、not permitted by this European Standard. 4.2 Material compatibility Materials of components that may be in contact with the contents shall be compatible with both the contents and the material of other components. BS EN 3-9:2006 (E) 5 5 Design 5.1 Cylinder and operating devices The thread of the cyl

31、inder and operating device shall be in accordance with and marked with the appropriate code, see Annex C. Operating devices with parallel threads shall include a means of automatically venting any pressure from the extinguisher before complete disengagement. NOTE By nature of their shape taper threa

32、ds naturally vent before complete disengagement. 5.2 Filling ratio There is a relationship between the filling ratio, the maximum allowable pressure and the maximum allowable temperature depending on the pressure-temperature curves of carbon dioxide. Commonly used filling ratios are 0,667, 0,675 and

33、 0,750, and the corresponding maximum allowable pressures at 60 C are shown in Annex B. 5.3 Operating device The operating device is a pressure accessory that can be fitted with the bursting disc. The thread of the operating device shall be in accordance with Annex C and shall be stamped, engraved o

34、r embossed with the specified code. 5.4 Bursting disc Extinguishers shall be fitted with a bursting disc, which shall comply with ISO 6718. The bursting disc at (Tmax 2) C shall operate at a pressure between 1,1 PS and the test pressure of the extinguisher PT, including all manufacturing tolerances.

35、 NOTE PS of the extinguisher assembly cannot exceed the PS of any component of the extinguisher assembly. 5.5 Hose and nozzle couplings Prototype testing 5.5.1 Requirements The coupling systems given below shall function throughout the operating temperature range of the fire extinguisher. Coupling s

36、ystems shall be designed and fitted in such a way that they cannot damage the hose. The burst pressure shall be equal to or greater than the appropriate value below when tested in accordance with 5.5.2. 1,5 times the pressure developed at Tmax, the test being carried out at (20 5) C one specimen. 1,

37、25 times the pressure developed at Tmax, the test being carried out at (Tmax 5) C two specimens: operating device/horn operating device/hose; operating device hose/horn operating device horn/nozzle. 5.5.2 Test conditions The burst pressure shall be established by increasing the pressure to the minim

38、um allowable burst pressure in a time not less than 30 s maintaining that pressure for a further 30 s during which failure shall not occur and then increasing the pressure at a maximum average rate of 10 bar/s until the point of failure. BS EN 3-9:2006 (E) 6 5.6 Resistance to impact 5.6.1 Test Condi

39、tions TSmaxand TSminclaimed by the manufacturer shall be used for the tests in 5.6.2 and Annex D. 5.6.2 Requirements When tested in accordance with D.1, extinguishers shall not show evidence of bursting, breakage or ejection of components. 6 Manufacturing of the assembled extinguisher The compatibil

40、ity between the thread of the cylinder and the thread of the operating device shall be checked. The manufacturers declared torque between the operating device and the cylinder and the operating device and the bursting disc shall be utilised. Manufacturing process shall be defined and controlled and

41、shall not adversely affect the design characteristics. The identification and the traceability of the materials for all pressure retaining parts shall be ensured by the manufacturer after reception of these materials. This is realised by application of adequate procedures, internal to the manufactur

42、er, such as batch control traceability. 7 Final assessment of the assembled extinguisher 7.1 General The evaluation of the integration of the different parts of the extinguisher shall be checked by: document basis at the design stage; the duration of operation shall be as follows: a) at Tmaxduration

43、 of operation shall not be more than the value established at a temperature of + 20 C; b) at Tminduration of operation shall not be more than 2,5 times the value established at + 20 C. Compliance shall be demonstrated using an appropriate sampling plan. 7.2 Validation of accessories Fittings (exclud

44、ing bursting disc subject to pressure shall meet the following requirements. For fittings in Category I or article 3 3 of Directive 97/23/EC, compliance shall be demonstrated by pressure testing components selected from production using an adequate sampling plan. All fittings (excluding bursting dis

45、c) in Category II or higher shall be submitted to a pressure test. The test pressure PT shall not be less than 1,43 times the maximum allowable pressure PS. The test pressure shall be maintained for a minimum of 30 s and the fittings shall remain tight and show no dangerous defect. Fittings include

46、operating devices, hose assemblies. The fittings need not be tested as part of the complete extinguisher but the test equipment connection and blanking features shall replicate the adjacent components. BS EN 3-9:2006 (E) 7 7.3 Validation of the design maximum filling mass Check the content of each e

47、xtinguisher by weight to ensure it is not overfilled. 8 Marking 8.1 Operating device - The thread code shall be marked (Annex C). 8.2 Cylinder - The thread code shall be marked (Annex C); - test pressure in bar, with the letters “PT“ before and followed by “BAR“ or “bar“. This marking shall be stamp

48、ed, engraved or embossed. 8.3 Extinguisher assembly The extinguisher assembly shall be marked with: mark of the extinguisher manufacturer as registered, for identification; serial or batch number of the extinguisher; year of manufacture of the extinguisher, which can be represented by the four digit

49、s, e.g. 2002; tare in kg, including permanently attached accessories (necessary for refilling); volume of the body L; maximum allowable pressure of the extinguisher assembly with the letters “PS“ before and followed by “BAR“ or “bar“; maximum filling mass kg; contained gas. operating temperature range of the extinguisher assembly (Tmin/ Tmax). The markings specified above shall be permanently marked. See also marking requirements specified in EN 3-7. BS EN 3-9:2006 (E
