The cabin equipment weight has a direct impact on the payload of the aircraft, operation cost and revenue of the airlines. Due to the

17、 number of aircraft seats, seats are one of the major weight drivers in the cabin. At this time a lot of seat weights are used without any clear definition, e.g. allowable max. weight, certified weight, defined weight. For the definition of each customer specific cabin definition it is important to

18、get comparable seat weights. Aircraft seats are very different with regard to seat envelope dimensions and integrated features and options. For a weight calculation and product comparison it is very helpful to get comparable weight information based on a standard weight. The aim of this European Sta

19、ndard is to define a clear definition for the different weight information and a baseline for a seat weight calculation to get comparable seat weights for set brochures and marketing reasons. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this docu

23、weight always depends on the specific customer requests. In order to get a clear weight definition and to cover all needs of the OEMs, airlines and seat suppliers, following seat weights needs to be clearly defined: a) Calculated seat weight; b) Actual seat weight empty; c) Maximum actual seat weigh

24、t loaded; d) Maximum certified seat weight; e) Defined seat weight. 4.2 Calculated seat weight 4.2.1 Economy class (E/C) seats The calculated seat weight is a theoretical seat weight, calculated based on a pre-defined seat definition. The calculated seat weight shall be used for marketing reasons in

25、 seat catalogues and seat brochures. The calculated weight according to this document ensures the availability of comparable weight information for the seat models offered on the market. The calculated seat weight shall be calculated for a Std. triple and front row triple seat with a seat width of 6

26、2 in (1 575 mm) measured from the most inboard to the most outboard point and installed on 2 straight seat legs. Following parts need to be considered: a) Primary structure: 1) 2 seat legs, including 2 front and 2 rear fittings; 2) Base members / seat track covers between front and rear fittings; 3)

27、 Baggage bar under all 3 seat places; 4) Beams (front and rear if 2 beams); 5) Seat spreaders; 6) Seat pans; 7) Seat belt attachments. b) Secondary structure: 1) 1 Fixed armrest structure outboard; 2) 2 Armrest structures for foldable centre armrest (For front row seats 2 fixed armrests with integra

28、ted in-armrest tables); 3) 1 Armrest structure for a foldable armrest aisle side for handicapped people (For front row seats 1 fixed armrest with integrated in-armrest table); 4) 3 Backrest structures; BS EN 4727:2015EN 4727:2015 (E) 6 5) 3 Recline mechanisms (if a seat is offered with no recline it

29、 needs to be indicated); 6) 1 Aisle side stewardess step; 7) All smaller structure items needed, e.g. gap closures. c) Seat cushion assemblies: Std. as offered by the seat supplier including fire blocking layer if needed. d) Backrest cushion assemblies: Std. as offered by the seat supplier including

30、 fire blocking layer if needed. e) Seat belts: 3 Std. seat belts, weight: 315 g / seat belt. f) Backrest tables: 3 standard backrest table kits this includes the table itself, table latch and any optional functions e.g. sliding mechanism and each related means of attachment to seat structure (if a s

31、eat table is offered with no sliding mechanism it shall be indicated). g) Literature pockets: 1 on each backrest, minimum size DIN A4. Detailed design up to seat supplier. h) Life vest pockets: 3 Life vest pockets, 1 under each armrest, designed for a life vest size of 240 mm 240 mm 90 mm and a weig

32、ht of 600 g / life vest. i) Trim and finish: 1) Seat cover fabric, uni colour / no pattern: 750 g/m2; 2) All plastic fairings for armrests need to be included; 3) Trolley guard strip (rub strips) on aisle side; 4) Armrest covers; 5) Backrest fairings. j) Trim strips (e.g. edge protection tape, velcr

BS EN 4727:2015EN 4727:2015 (E) 7 As the specific weight of IFE equipment is varying, following classification in Table 1 shall be used for total IFE weight / seat row

35、: Table 1 Classification for total IFE weight / seat row Classification Total IFE weight / seat row Class A 500 g Class B 501 g to 1 000 g Class C 1 001 g to 1 500 g Class D 1 501 g to 2 000 g Class E 2 000 g 4.2.2 First class (F/C) and Business class (B/C) seats F/C and B/C seat concepts are very d

36、ifferent and often highly customized. The definition of the calculated seat weight is up to the seat supplier.

37、er, but a clear list of considered features and options including IFE and monitor size is to be provided by the seat supplier with the calculated seat weight. 4.3 Actual seat weight empty The actual seat weight empty is the weight of each seat part number (P/N) (single, double, triple quadruple) as

Consider the seat as ready for aircraft inst

39、allation. The weight will be finally checked during first article inspection (FAI). The seat unit will be weighed empty as delivered to the OEM fully equipped with seat belts, cushions, dress covers, IFE but without any life vest and other weight of contents for any stowage compartments or literatur

40、e pockets.

41、ckets (Magazines); b) Maximum weight for life vests; c) Maximum weight for content of other stowage compartment. The maximum actual seat weight loaded shall be mentioned in addition to the actual seat weight empty on the seat supplier drawings. 4.5 Certified seat weight The certified seat weight is

42、the maximum actual seat weight loaded as defined in 4.4 plus. a) Weight for under-seat baggage of 9,1 kg (20 lb) per seat place; b) Weight for passengers 77,0 kg (170 lb) per seat place; c) Additional weight for any item of mass in order to cover any additional seat option with the seat certificatio

43、n; BS EN 4727:2015EN 4727:2015 (E) 8 The certified seat weight shall be listed in the certification documentation like static and dynamic test reports, installation instructions and limitations (IIL). 4.6 Defined seat weight The defined seat weight is to be negotiated between the seat supplier and t
