BS EN 10692:2017EN 1069-2:2017 (E) 4 Introduction The provision of water slide installations is increasing, also are
27、the concerns over the number of injuries resulting from the use of water slides, many of which are of a serious nature. Many of the injuries have resulted from foreseeable circumstances and, given proper knowledge and control, could have been prevented. A standard or a code of practice for instructi
28、ons and the operation of water slides is seen as the most appropriate way to achieve an improvement in safety. BS EN 10692:2017EN 1069-2:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to water slides as defined in EN 1069-1:2017, 3.3. This European Standard establishes the instructions for
29、use, operation and maintenance as well as the documentation and commissioning of water slides. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

35、mpany, organization, authority or person with overall control and responsibility for the water slide facility BS EN 10692:2017EN 1069-2:2017 (E) 6 3.2 platform area providing access to the start section 3.3 raft type of ride enhancement device for one or more users 4 Operation 4.1 General EN 15288-2
36、 applies and EN 15288-1 shall be considered if appropriate. The following subclauses give specific advice related to water slides. 4.2 Guidelines to the operational risk assessment An operational risk assessment shall be performed by the slide operator, based on the results of the design risk assess
37、ment, as a basis for the identification of the proper supervision, following the requirements of EN 15288-2. In addition, and referring to the fact that impact between the users proved to be a critical issue, also the following risks shall be taken into consideration: a) inappropriate spacing at the
38、 start between users; b) sliding position (e.g. sitting) can bring the user to an involuntary stop; c) significant differences in speed can cause collisions of users; d) significant differences in speed caused by: 1) different sliding positions; 2) different bathing costume respectively wearing hard
39、ly any bathing costume (e.g. G-string type); 3) different fitness, size, weight and age of user; 4) Stopping or changing water flow rate (malfunction of water supply); e) reasonably foreseeable risky behaviours by the users: 1) higher risk of collision between users at a splashdown area in contrast
40、to a catch unit; f) suitability for children; g) foreseeable users categories (e.g. adults, children, both) and number of users (e.g. chain sliding allowed); h) allowed use of ride enhancement devices (e.g. mattresses, rafts); i) Unauthorised access. Examples of general and specific risk assessments
41、 are given in Annex B. BS EN 10692:2017EN 1069-2:2017 (E) 7 4.3 Risk reduction The operator shall take measures to reduce possible risks to a minimum bearing in mind the risky behaviours of users by choosing an appropriate level of distance control and supervision and shall identify a risk reduction
42、 strategy from the following options: a) permanent full supervision by the staff at the start section and at the splashdown area/catch unit, staff is in communication with each other; b) adequate technical distance control, e.g. turnstiles at the entrance and/or exit area and/or a traffic light cont
43、rol at the entrance; c) a proper level of supervision/technical measures as a result of the risk assessment. Additional safety equipment which may be used: d) For the user: The installation of a monitor at the start section that transmits the situation at the end of the slide and at the catch unit/s
44、plashdown area for the person who is starting to see whether the catch unit or the splashdown area of the pool is free. e) For the supervisory staff: The installation of a monitor at the staff terminal that transmits the situation at the start and the end of the slide and at the catch unit/splashdow
45、n area. The quality of technical distance control equipment depends on the risk assessment and should be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 13849-2. 4.4 Basic elements for the identification of proper supervision The operator, by performing the part of the risk assessment concerning proper superv
46、ision, shall take into account at least the following: a) kind of landing: 1) catch unit; 2) sofa unit; 3) special pool and its water depth at landing; 4) general purpose pool and its water depth at landing; b) speed at the final part; c) presence and kind of distance control: 1) full technical dist
47、ance control; 2) traffic lights; 3) other types; d) visibility for the user: 1) slide fully visible from the start; 2) catch unit visible from the start; 3) pool visible from the start. BS EN 10692:2017EN 1069-2:2017 (E) 8 The use of mandatory and prohibition signs and public information symbols sho
48、uld also be considered when determining the proper supervision to enforce them. 4.5 Technical operation Written guidelines shall be produced concerning operational instructions by the operator paying particular attention to operational safety aspects (e.g. starting procedure, sliding speed of the us
49、ers see EN 1069-1:2017, 7.13). These instructions shall comprise: detailed explanation of the controls and their function; recommended user access and egress procedures, exclusively allowed sliding positions and any limitations necessary to prevent static overload of the water slide; the prescribed limiting conditions stating any limitations for user, the limits of speed of operation, the sliding time and the maximum numbers of user to be carried; emergency evacuation procedures; any environmental limitations, e.g. c
