National foreword This standard includes safety requirements. This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 160 “Protection against falls from heig
5、ht including working belts” (Secretariat: DIN, Germany). The responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Persnliche Schutzausrstung (Personal Protective Equipment Standards Committee), Working Committee NA 075-03-01 AA Persnliche Schutzausrstung gegen Absturz. The DIN
6、 Standards corresponding to the International Standards referred to in this document are as follows: ISO 1140 DIN EN ISO 1140 ISO 1141 DIN EN ISO 1141 ISO 9227 DIN EN ISO 9227 Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 795:1996-08 and DIN EN 795/A1:2001-01 as follows: a) the Introduction has been
7、modified: The standard is based on the philosophy that anchor devices are rated to sustain the maximum dynamic force generated in a fall from a height by the mass of one person, including any equipment carried. The static strength test is based on a minimum factor of safety of two. To allow for fore
8、seeable misuse of equipment, it also requires that all anchor devices be tested even if their intended use is for restraint; b) Clause 1 “Scope” has been modified: This European Standard specifies requirements for performance and associated test methods for singleuser anchor devices which can be rem
9、oved from the structure. It is not applicable to: anchor devices intended to allow more than one user to be attached at any one time; anchor devices used in any sports or recreational activity; equipment designed to conform to EN 516 or EN 517; DIN EN 795:2012-103 elements or parts of structures whi
10、ch were installed for use other than as anchor points or anchor devices, e.g. beams, girders; structural anchors; c) Clause 3 “Terms and definitions” has been updated giving examples of anchor devices covered by this standard and examples of anchors that are not covered by this standard; d) Clause 4
11、 “Requirements” has been rewritten to include requirements for materials, corrosion resistance, rope/webbing, connectors and design and ergonomics. Specific requirements have also been rewritten; e) Clause 5 “Test method”: types A, B, C and D anchor devices are now tested for deformation, dynamic st
12、rength and integrity and static strength; type E anchor devices are now tested for deformation, dynamic performance, post arrest suspension and static strength; dynamic tests now require the use of a test lanyard manufactured from rope conforming to EN 892 with the 100 kg rigid test mass set to gene
13、rate 9 kN at the point of arrest; static strength tests now require that metallic anchor devices sustain a load of 12 kN. Anchor devices that contain non-metallic load-bearing parts, for which evidence of durability is not provided, shall sustain a load of 18 kN; all test methods have been rewritten
14、 and restructured; f) Clause 6 “Marking”: All anchor devices are to be marked for the use of one user only; g) Clause 7 “Information supplied by the manufacturer” has been rewritten and additional requirements have been added; h) Annex A “Information on installation documentation and periodic examin
15、ation” has been extended to include the following new subclauses: A.1 Information on installation to be supplied by the manufacturer A.2 Guidance on documentation to be supplied after installation A.3 Guidance on periodic examination.

DIN EN 795:2012-10EN 795:2012 (E) 6 Introduction A reliable ancho
42、r device is an essential component of any personal fall protection system. This European Standard is intended to act as a complementary standard for existing European Standards covering other components used in personal fall protection systems. The scope and the requirements are based on the philoso
43、phy that anchor devices are rated to sustain the maximum dynamic force generated in a fall from a height by the mass of one person, including any equipment carried. The static strength tests are based on a minimum factor of safety of two. To allow for foreseeable misuse of equipment, this European S
44、tandard provides requirements and test methods for anchor devices used in personal fall protection systems in accordance with EN 363, even if their intended use is for restraint. Requirements and test methods for multi-user anchor devices, i.e. anchor devices that allow more than one user to be atta
45、ched at any one time, are not addressed in this document but advice is provided in a separate CEN Technical Specification. This European Standard is intended for the type testing of new products before placing them on the market and gives only minimum performance requirements. It is essential that a
46、nchor devices are designed and manufactured so that, in the foreseeable conditions of use for which they are intended, the user is able to perform the risk-related activity while being appropriately protected at the highest possible level. Manufacturers may wish to bear these points in mind when dec
47、iding on the actual performance of their products. DIN EN 795:2012-10EN 795:2012 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for performance and associated test methods for single-user anchor devices which are intended to be removable from the structure. These anchor devices incorporate stationary or travelling (mobile) anchor points designed for the attachment of components of a personal fall protection system in accordance with EN 363. This European Standard also gives requirements for marking and instructions for use, and guidance on installation. This European Standard is
