In the revision of this European standard, and that of EN 169, which was performed concurrently, it was decided to remove from EN 379 welding filters with dual scale numbers
22、 and include them within EN 169.

BS EN 379:2003+A1:2009EN 379:2003+A1:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This European standard specifies requirements for automati
24、c welding filters which switch their luminous transmittance to a lower predetermined value when a welding arc is ignited (referred to as welding filters with switchable scale numbers). It also specifies requirements for automatic welding filters which switch their luminous transmittance to a lower v
25、alue, where the lower value of luminous transmittance is set automatically in dependence on the illuminance generated by the welding arc (referred to as welding filters with automatic scale number setting). The requirements of this standard apply if such a filter is to be used for continuous viewing
26、 of the welding process, (including gas welding and cutting), and if it is to be used only during the period when the arc is being ignited. These filters are used in welders eye protectors or are fixed to equipment. If they are to be used in welders eye protectors, other applicable requirements for
27、these types of filters are given in EN 166. The requirements for the frames/mountings to which they are intended to be fitted are given in EN 175. Guidance on the selection and use of these filters is given in annex A. The specifications for welding filters without switchable luminous transmittance
28、are given in EN 169. 2 Normative references !The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

37、uminous transmittance at a time t after the ignition of the welding arc; t = t ( (t)=3 2 ) is the time at which the luminous transmittance falls to 3 times the luminous transmittance in the darkest state. NOTE In the case of short term exposure to light, the glare is approximately proportional to th
38、e product of the illuminance at the eye and time. The time relationship of the darkening process can be very different depending on the construction of the welding filter with switchable scale number. It is therefore appropriate to define the switching time as an integral of the luminous transmittan
39、ce over time and not merely by the initial and final luminous transmittances.
