29、ting side view It shall be possible to route seat-to-seat cables by/alongside/near the fitting, which in turn shall not damage or squeeze the cables when the seats are shifted inside the rail. Therefore the width shall not exceed max. 25,4 mm (max. 1 inch), according to Figure 8 and Figure 10. Parti
30、cular attention shall be paid to galvanic corrosion between seat tracks and fitting materials. The seat track fitting material shall be corrosion resistant, considering not only the potential action of water/humidity, but also fluids and materials present in the normal seat environment, as well as p
31、assenger activity. 4.3 Installation Requirements The fitting shall be quickly lockable by one person without the need for any tools. A single tool Allen Key 3/16, or 5/16 shall be used for unlocking of the attachments fasteners. The maximum force for the locking operation shall not exceed (5 1) daN,
32、 respecting ergonomic aspects. The (pure) seat installation time, comprising two (2) Fwd and two (2) aft fittings, shall not exceed one (1) minute. The last seat row may have a longer installation time due to restricted accessibility of a monument installation (e.g. Doghouses, partitions, etc.). The
33、 SLD shall not include parts that have to be disassembled or removed from the device for seat position shifting, removal and installation. The locking motions of the fitting shall not damage the seat track, floor panels or any other component and their surfaces. A clear and reliable visible indicati
34、on for the SLD in locked position shall be incorporated in order to guarantee correct installation and engagement of the fitting. The SLD engagement/disengagement to the track shall be directly visible to personnel (e.g. quality inspector) standing in the longitudinal passenger aisle. prEN 4697:2014
35、 (E) 11 Unhindered access to the attachment fitting shall be considered, e.g. without the need to disassemble any parts of the seat or any adjacent components as stowages, doghouses, etc. The shifting of seats (movement of the seat in x-direction) fwd and aft shall be possible without having to remo
36、ve them from the seat rail. The fitting design shall prevent jamming in the seat rail, neither during changing the seat position nor during seat installation/removal. The fitting design shall allow seat reconfiguration within five (5) min (e.g. unlock, shift, re-lock of a seat group). For unfastenin
37、g operations of the fitting the environment shall be considered (e.g. floor panels, carpet, raceways, monuments), as per Figure 10.

SLD Locking function/ device shall not require the use of safety wire. The front
39、 and rear fitting shall be protected against abuse loading from passenger feet and luggage. The fitting design shall avoid passenger injuries. The SLD shall be designed for positive engagement in the seat track. This positive engagement can be gravity, spring loading or self-locking under forward or
40、 downward inertia load factors or a combination of these. The SLD shall lock itself in the engaged position by an approved means to sustain flight, landing, abuse and ground test loads. Three (3) life cycle/performance tests shall be performed according to the following procedure: a) Operation of th
41、e locking device: The design shall consider a minimum use of 1 000 cycles operating of the locking device. 1) Fit into the seat track. 2) Lock. 3) Unlock. 4) Lift out of the seat rail. Pass/Fail criteria: Rattling. Friction. Play. Force for locking operation is still 1 daN of initial force. b) Movem
42、ent along the seat track: The design shall consider a minimum of 100 cycles movement along the seat track. Test rig with two (2) seat legs, distance 527 mm (two (2) front fittings, two (2) rear fittings) loaded weight 180 kg. 1) Movement along the seat track by 8”. 2) Lock. 3) Unlock. Pass/Fail crit
43、eria: Surface treatment not damaged so that the track material becomes visible c) Movement along the seat track, environmental conditions considered: The design shall consider a minimum of 100 cycles movement along the seat track. Test rig with two (2) seat legs, distance 527 mm (two (2) front fitti
44、ngs, two (2) rear fittings) loaded weight 180 kg. Environmental conditions: Sand, dust, fluids (anti- and de-icing agents according to AMS 1424J); AMS 1428F, coke, alcohol, distilled vinegar (10 % concentrated), cleaning agents according; prEN 4697:2014 (E) 13 AMS 1550B (normal), AMS 1630C and AMS 1
45、631C (carpet). 1) Movement along the seat track by 8”. 2) Lock. 3) Unlock. Pass/Fail Criteria: Fitting still operable. Test rig still movable. Test cycle duration shall not exceed five (5) minutes. Refer to the following chapters from: CS-25:2008, Amendment 5/FAR 25:2008, Amendment 127: 25.603 Mater
