26、, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2006. This Europ

27、ean Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this European Standard

28、. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,

29、Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 14373:2005 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard describes the basic requirements for the design and application of explosion suppression systems. This European S

30、tandard also specifies a method for evaluating the effectiveness and the scale up of explosion suppression systems against defined explosions. It gives the criteria for alternative test apparatus used to undertake explosion suppression efficacy tests and criteria to be applied in defining the safe o

31、perating regime of an explosion suppression system. It covers: general requirements for explosion suppression components; evaluating the effectiveness of an explosion suppression system; evaluating the scale up of an explosion suppression system; evaluation and development of design tools for explos

32、ion suppression systems; instructions for installation of an explosion suppression system; maintenance instructions for an explosion suppression system. This European Standard is applicable only to explosion suppression systems intended for the protection of closed, or essentially closed, enclosures

33、 in which an explosion may result as a consequence of ignition of an explosible mixtures, e.g. dust-air mixtures, gas(vapour)-air mixtures, dust-gas(vapour)-air mixtures and mists. This European Standard is not applicable for explosions of materials listed below, or for mixtures containing some of t

34、hose materials: unstable materials that are liable to dissociate; explosive materials; pyrotechnic materials; pyrophoric materials. NOTE For the listed materials expert advice is required. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this Europea
