The work of prepari
9、ng International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in lia
10、ison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft Internation
11、al Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 10333
12、may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard ISO 10333-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 94, Personal safety Protective clothing and equipment, Subcommittee SC 4, Personal equipment for protect
13、ion against falls. ISO 10333 consists of the following parts, under the general title Personal fall-arrest systems: Part 1: Full-body harnesses Part 2: Lanyards and energy absorbers Part 3: Self-retracting lifelines Part 4: Vertical rails and vertical lifelines which incorporate a sliding-type fall
14、arrester Part 5: Connectors The systems performance tests will be the subject of a future part 6 to ISO 10333.ISO 10333-2:2000(E) ISO 2000 All rights reserved v Introduction In cases where the hazard of falling from a height exists and where, for technical reasons or for work of very short duration,
15、 safe access cannot be otherwise provided, it is necessary to consider the use of personal fall-arrest systems (PFAS). Such use should never be improvised and its adoption should be specifically provided for in the appropriate formal provisions for safety in the work place. PFAS complying with this
16、part of ISO 10333 should satisfy ergonomic requirements and should only be used if the work allows means of connection to a suitable anchor device of demonstrated strength and if it can be implemented without compromising the safety of the user. Personnel should be trained and instructed in the safe
17、 use of the equipment and be observant of such training and instruction. This part of ISO 10333 is based on current knowledge and practice concerning the use of PFAS that incorporate a full body harness as specified in ISO 10333-1. This part of ISO 10333 presumes that the manufacturer of the PFAS, s
18、ubsystems or components will, for the sake of consistency and traceability, operate a quality management system which will comply with national and regional regulations in force at the time. Guidance on the form this quality management system may take can be found in ISO 9000 (all parts), Quality ma
19、nagement and quality assurance standards.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10333-2:2000(E) ISO 2000 All rights reserved 1 Personal fall-arrest systems Part 2: Lanyards and energy absorbers 1 Scope This part of ISO 10333 specifies requirements, test methods, instructions for use and maintenance, marking, la
20、belling and packaging, as appropriate, for lanyards and energy absorbers. Lanyards and energy absorbers are used together as a connecting subsystem in personal fall-arrest systems (PFAS) which will be specified in a future International Standard (see ISO 10333-6 in the Bibliography). Two classes of
21、energy absorbers are specified for the purposes of this part of ISO 10333: a) Type 1: used in PFAS where, due to installation, the potential free-fall distance can be limited to a maximum of 1,8 m and, if a fall takes place, the arresting force is limited to a maximum of 4,0 kN; b) Type 2: used in P
22、FAS where, due to installation, the potential free-fall distance can be limited to a maximum of 4,0 m and, if a fall takes place, the arresting force is limited to a maximum of 6,0 kN. This part of ISO 10333 is applicable only to lanyards and energy absorbers limited to single-person use of a total
23、mass not exceeding 100 kg. NOTE Users of fall-protection equipment whose total mass (including tools and equipment) exceeds 100 kg are advised to seek advice from the equipment manufacturer regarding the suitability of this equipment, which may need additional testing. For the purposes of this part
24、of ISO 10333, energy absorbers may be supplied integral to a lanyard, integral to a full body harness (FBH), or may be supplied separately. The scope of this part of ISO 10333 does not extend to: a) PFAS that incorporate lanyards without energy absorbers or without a means of energy dissipation; b)
25、special lanyards and energy absorbers which are integral (i.e. can only be separated by mutilation or by special tool) to the PFAS components as specified in ISO 10333-4. This part of ISO 10333 does not specify those additional requirements that would apply when lanyards and energy absorbers are sub
26、jected to special conditions of use (where, for example, there exist unusual limitations concerning access to the place of work and/or particular environmental factors). Thus treatments to ensure the durability of the materials of construction (such as heat treatment, anti-corrosion treatment, prote
27、ction against physical and chemical hazards) are not specified in this part of ISO 10333, but should comply with appropriate International Standards or, failing that, with national standards and other specifications dealing with relevant physical characteristics and/or the safety of users. In partic
28、ular, when it is considered necessary to test the corrosion resistance of metallic parts of the equipment, reference should be made to ISO 9227.ISO 10333-2:2000(E) 2 ISO 2000 All rights reserved 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in t
