10、 worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing 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 represente
11、d on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison 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 draf
12、ted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Sta
13、ndard 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 document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 7176-25 was prepare
14、d by Technical Committee ISO/TC 173, Assistive products for persons with disability, Subcommittee SC 1, Wheelchairs. ISO 7176 consists of the following parts, under the general title Wheelchairs: Part 1: Determination of static stability Part 2: Determination of dynamic stability of electric wheelch

21、is important to ensure that wheelchair batteries and chargers are suitable for the purpose and that the wheelchair, batteries and charger are compatible. It is also important to ensure that risks arising from the use of wheelchair batteries and their chargers are eliminated or reduced as far as is p
22、racticable. Consequently, it is essential that performance requirements and safety requirements for wheelchair batteries and battery chargers are available. Battery chargers are divided into three types: off-board, carry-on and on-board. Operating, transport and storage situations can differ for the
23、se types, so it is appropriate to apply different requirements to them.vi ISO 2013 All rights reservedBS ISO 7176-25:2013INTERNATIONAL ST ANDARD ISO 7176-25:2013(E) Wheelchairs Part 25: Batteries and chargers for powered wheelchairs WARNING This part of ISO 7176 calls for the use of procedures that
24、might be injurious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve those carrying out or commissioning the tests from legal obligations relating to health and safety. Prior to carrying out tests that could cause batteries or chargers to e
25、xhibit dangerous behaviour, it is recommended that the likely outcome is assessed and appropriate arrangements made to minimise risk. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods for batteries and battery chargers intended for use with electrically powered wheelchairs.
26、 It is applicable to lead acid batteries and chargers intended for use with them. Requirements for chargers are applicable to those with a rated input voltage not greater than 250 V a.c. and a nominal output voltage not greater than 36 V. NOTE 1 Requirements for other battery chemistries (nickel and
27、 lithium based batteries) and suitable chargers are under consideration. NOTE 2 Requirements regarding safety are applicable to all battery chargers intended for use with electrically powered wheelchairs. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application

46、s a part of a current measuring device (4.1 and 4.2). NOTE 2 Some battery chargers might need a voltage to be applied to the output terminals to energize or maintain their output. To initialize such chargers it will be necessary to connect a current-limited voltage source to the load terminals. NOTE
47、 3 It is important to confirm correct operation of the battery charger with the electronic load. For example, some battery chargers might need a capacitive load, in which case an appropriate capacitor should be added to the load terminals and correct operation confirmed. NOTE 4 It is essential that
48、the voltage range at the load terminals and the maximum load current are matched to the battery charger under test.
