24、 March 2002 3 Introduction This standard is intended as a supplement to the specific product standards for protective helmets (helmet standards). This method or other test methods may be applicable to complete helmets or parts thereof, and may be referenced in the appropriate helmet standards. Perfo
25、rmance requirements are given in the appropriate helmet standard, as are such prerequisites as the number of samples, preconditioning, preparation of samples for the tests, sequence and duration of testing and assessment of test results. If deviations from the test method given in this standard are
26、necessary, these deviations will be specified in the appropriate helmet standard. 1 Scope This European Standard describes methods of test for protective helmets. The purpose of these tests is to enable assessment of the performance of the helmet as specified in the appropriate helmet standard. This
27、 European Standard specifies the method of test for resistance to penetration. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publication
28、s are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendme
29、nts). EN 13087-1, Protective Helmets Test Methods Part 1: Conditions and conditioning. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions used in this standard may be found in the appropriate helmet standard. 4 Prerequisites In order to implement this Europ
30、ean Standard, at least the following parameters shall be specified in the appropriate helmet standard: a) performance requirements; b) number of samples; c) preparation of samples; d) sequence of conditioning; e) sequence of tests; f) type of striker; g) number and location of impact points on helme
31、t; h) impact energy, including tolerance, of the striker for each impact; i) fitting instructions. 5 Test methods 5.1 General Testing shall be performed in the ambient conditions specified in EN 13087-1. When the test method specifies that the helmet shall be fitted to a headform, this shall be done
32、 in accordance with the appropriate helmet standard. Annex A refers to the uncertainty of measurement. 5.2 Principle A test striker is allowed to fall with specified energy on to a helmet which is fitted to a rigidly mounted test block. Note is taken of whether or not contact is made between the str
33、iker and the test block.EN 13087-3:2000 4 BSI 22 March 2002 5.3 Apparatus 5.3.1 Base The base shall be solid, made of steel or a combination of steel and concrete and have a mass of not less than 500 kg. At least the uppermost 25 mm shall consist of steel, which shall be firmly attached to the concr
34、ete if present. 5.3.2 Test block A hemispherical test block of hardwood or similar rigid material, with a soft metal or equivalent insert located at the top of its central vertical axis is mounted on a rigid support. Elasticated restraining straps are provided to assist in retaining the helmet in po
35、sition during the test. They should be such as not to affect the correct performance of the test. A suitable apparatus is shown in Figure 1. 5.3.3 Striker Two types of striker are specified: a) a conical one; b) a flat blade one. The type of striker to be used is specified in the appropriate helmet
36、standard. The characteristics of the conical striker are as follows: The characteristics of the flat blade striker are shown in Figure 2 and are summarized below: Mass: (3 000 25) g; Angle of point: (60 1) ; Radius of point: (0,5 0,1) mm; Minimum height of cone: 40 mm; Hardness of tip: 50 to 45 HRC.
37、 Mass: (400 10) g; Thickness: (6,0 0,25) mm; Width of upper section: (38,0 0,25) mm; Include angle of taper of lower section: (40 2) ; Width of flat tip: (0,25 0,05) mm; Hardness of tip: 50 to 45 HRC.

The guidance system shall be such as to ensure that the striker: shall be position
40、ed above the test block so that the central axis of the striker coincides with the point of impact on the helmet; and falls on to the required impact position with an impact speed of not less than 95 % of that which would theoretically be obtained for a free fall. 5.3.5 Means to measure impact speed
41、 Unless free fall is employed, means shall be provided to measure the striker speed at a distance of not more than 60 mm prior to impact, to within an accuracy of l %. The impact speed shall be measured during the commissioning of the apparatus. It need not be done for each impact, but has to be suf
42、ficiently regular to comply with 5.3.4. 5.4 Procedure Within one minute of its removal from conditioning (this time applies to temperature conditioning only), fit the helmet to the test block so as to present the required impact point to the striker. Allow the striker to fall on to the specified imp
43、act point. The impact energy shall be as specified in the appropriate helmet standard. Note whether or not contact is made between the striker and the test block or whether the surface of the soft metal (or equivalent) insert in the test block is visibly damaged. If necessary, restore the surface of
44、 the soft metal (or equivalent) insert in the test block, prior to a subsequent test. If the design of the helmet permits direct contact between the test block and the striker, the test shall not be performed and the result shall be declared a failure. 5.5 Test report Report whether contact was made
45、 between the striker and the test block or whether the surface of the soft metal (or equivalent) insert test block was visibly damaged. Annex A (normative) Test results Uncertainty of measurement For each of the required measurements performed in accordance with this standard, a corresponding estima
46、te of the uncertainty of measurement shall be evaluated. This estimate of uncertainty shall be applied and stated when reporting test results, in order to enable the user of the test report to assess the reliability of the data. Annex ZA (informative) Clauses of this European Standard addressing ess
47、ential requirements or other provisions of EU Directives 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 requirements of EU Directive on personal protective equipment (PPE) 89/686/EEC.
