30、n product with a set of representative performance levels or classes in relation to its Essential Characteristics, produced using a given combination of raw materials or other elements in a specific production process BS EN 14688:2015EN 14688:2015 (E) 7 4 Requirements 4.1 Load resistance When tested
31、 in accordance with 5.2, wall-hung wash basins shall not crack, be broken or show permanent distortion. 4.2 Draining of water When tested in accordance with 5.3, all water shall drain away. 4.3 Resistance to temperature changes When wash basins are tested in accordance with 5.4, they shall not show
32、defects, such as cracks or delamination which influences the intended use. Experience has shown that wash basins made of glazed ceramics, stainless steel, enamelled steel and glass comply with this requirement. 4.4 Resistance to chemicals and staining agents When used as intended, any functional sur
33、face shall be resistant to household chemicals and cleansing agents recommended by the manufacturer. When tested in accordance with 5.5, wash basins shall not show any permanent surface deterioration, such as stains or deterioration not removable with water or abrasive agent. Experience has shown th
34、at wash basins made of glazed ceramics, stainless steel and enamelled steel comply with this requirement. 4.5 Surface stability This requirement is applicable only to multi-layer wash basins to ensure the stability of the top layer. When tested in accordance with 5.6, any scratch shall not exceed 0,
35、1 mm and/or the total depth of the top layer whichever is the least. When tested in accordance with 5.7, the top layer of the test specimen shall not be abraded through. Experience has shown that wash basins made of glazed ceramics and enamelled steel comply with these requirements. 4.6 Cleanability
36、 When tested in accordance with 5.8, wash basins shall have smooth and readily cleansed non-absorbent functional surfaces which are free from acute internal corners which would be difficult to clean, i.e. surfaces intended to or likely to come into contact with water during use. Experience has shown
37、 that wash basins manufactured from plastics materials, enamelled steel/cast iron, stainless steel, glazed ceramics and glass, designed and constructed without acute internal corners, satisfy this requirement. 4.7 Protection against overflowing 4.7.1 Wash basins with overflow Every wash basin shall
38、be protected against overflowing. BS EN 14688:2015EN 14688:2015 (E) 8 When tested in accordance with 5.9, the flow rate of a single overflow shall not be less than the values given in Table 1. Table 1 Flow rates of overflow Overflow class Overflow rate l/s CL 25 0,25 CL 20 0,20 CL 15 0,15 CL 10 0,10
39、 CL 00 See 4.7.2. In two-bowl wash basins, it is permitted to have only one overflow, if the overflowing from one bowl to the other is ensured. 4.7.2 Wash basins without overflow A wash basin with a non-closable outlet or a floor gully may also be used as a protection against overflowing. In this ca
40、se the wash basin is considered to be class CL 00. 4.8 Durability Products conforming with the requirements of 4.1 to 4.7 are deemed to be durable. 5 Test methods 5.1 General All tests may be carried out on the same sample wash basin. 5.2 Load resistance Install the wash basin to be tested in a hori
