National foreword This standard includes safety requirements within the meaning of the Gerte- und Produktsicherheitsgesetz (German Equipment and Consumer Goods Safety Law). This standard has been prepared by CEN
4、/TC 136 “Sports, playground and other recreational equipment” (Secretariat: Germany). The responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Sport- und Freizeitgert (Sports Equipment Standards Committee), Technical Committee NA 112-04-05 AA Bergsteigerausrstung. Tapes as spe
5、cified in this standard fall within the scope of the Gerte- und Produktsicherheitsgesetz. Once compliance with the safety requirements specified in article 7 has been verified by an accredited test house, the equipment may be marked with the symbol GS (= geprfte Sicherheit, safety tested). Amendment
6、s This standard differs from DIN EN 565:1997-04 as follows: a) A requirement has been specified for tape supplied on a drum and consisting of more than one piece. b) The new rules for drawing up European Standards have been taken into consideration. c) The list of standards on mountaineering equipme

19、ngdom. EN 565:2006 (E) 4 Introduction The text of this European Standard is based on the former UIAA-Standard H (Union Internationale des Asso-ciations dAlpinisme), which has been developed with international participation. This European Standard is one of a package of standards for mountaineering e
20、quipment, see Annex A. EN 565:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies safety requirements and test methods for tape supplied on drums or in separate lengths, for use in mountaineering including climbing. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the
21、application of this document. For dated refer-ences, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

23、ety requirements 4.1 Stability When shuttleless loom webbing is used, the weft shall be locked by an additional locking thread or by any other system, which guarantees that the edges cannot be unravelled when one of the yarns breaks. 4.2 Tensile strength When tested in accordance with 5.4, the tensi
24、le strength of tape shall be at least 5 kN. It shall be possible to read the tensile strength from the continuous tape (see 6.2). 4.3 Packaging If the tape is supplied on a drum and consists of more than one piece, the ends of the pieces shall be clearly visible and not joined together. No testing r
25、equired. 4.4 Mass per unit length This mass shall be given as information according to 7 d). EN 565:2006 (E) 6 5 Test methods 5.1 Test samples 5.1.1 Carry out the test described in 5.3 on one test sample. 5.1.2 Carry out the tests described in 5.4 on one test sample. 5.1.3 Carry out the test describ
26、ed in 5.5 on one test sample. 5.2 Conditioning Condition the test samples as described in EN ISO 139. Carry out the test at a relative humidity which may be outside the standard atmosphere given in EN ISO 139, but at a temperature of (23 5) C, in which case the test should begin within 5 min of remo
27、val from the condi-tioning atmosphere. 5.3 Stability Check the requirements of 4.1 using a test sample of 1 000 mm minimum length and cut one warp and one weft thread. 5.4 Determination of tensile strength Carry out the determination of the tensile strength by using a tensile testing machine and fix
28、ing devices in ac-cordance with 5.1 of EN ISO 2307:2005. The minimum free length between attachment points shall be 200 mm. Determine the loading speed, v, as a function of the free length of the test sample, using Equation (1): v = 0,5 l with an accuracy of 20 % (1) where v is the loading speed in
29、millimetres per minute; l is the free length in millimetres between points of attachment. 5.5 Determination of mass per unit length Carry out the test with a minimum free length between points of attachment of 1 300 mm. NOTE There is no requirement for any particular type of fixing device. Load the
30、test sample without shock at a rate not exceeding 1 mm/s by means of a (4 0,05) kg test mass. Retain the maximum load for (60 15) s and mark a reference length of (1 000 1) mm, with a distance be-tween the marks and the points of attachment of at least 100 mm. Release the load and cut the marked par
31、t from the test sample and determine its mass to the nearest 0,1 g. Report the mass per unit length in grams per metre, to at least two significant figures. There is no specific requirement for mass per unit length, but it can be marked on the drum or packaging of the tape (see Clause 6). EN 565:200
32、6 (E) 7 6 Marking 6.1 The drum or production-line packaging of tapes shall be marked with at least the following items, which shall be given at least in the official language(s) of the state of destination within the European Community: a) word “tape“ and the number of this European Standard, i.e. E
33、N 565; b) name of the manufacturer or its representative in the European Community; c) tensile strength which the manufacturer ensures at the time of manufacturing; d) if tape is supplied on a drum and consists of more than one piece, the number of pieces shall be stated on the drum; e) year of manu
34、facture. NOTE In addition, the mass per unit length can also be marked. 6.2 The tape shall be marked by means of threads to allow the minimum tensile strength to be read directly, as follows: a) one coloured thread per 5 kN tensile strength; b) colour of the thread(s) shall be uniform and in contras
35、t to the colour of the tape; c) marking shall be on one side of the tape only, in the middle of the tape; d) space between coloured threads shall be clearly visible by eye. 7 Information supplied by the manufacturer The tape shall be supplied with an explanatory leaflet, and written in at least the
36、official language(s) of the state of destination within the European Community containing at least the following items: a) name and address of the manufacturer or its representative in the European Community; b) number of this European Standard, i.e. EN 565; c) meaning of any marking on the product;
37、 d) mass per unit length of the tape as specified in 5.5; e) tensile strength which the manufacturer ensures at the time of manufacturing; f) use of the product; g) how to choose other components for use in the system; h) how to maintain/service the product, on the effects of chemical reagents and h
38、ow to disinfect the product without adverse effect; i) lifespan of the product or how to assess it and that after a serious fall the tape should be withdrawn from use as soon as possible; j) influence of wet and icy conditions; k) danger of sharp edges; l) influence of storage and aging due to use;
39、m) influence of knots on the strength.
