22、ng hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2015 and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
23、the latest by February 2017. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13561:2004+A1:2008. This docu

25、s European Standard is a part of a series of standards dealing with blinds and shutters for buildings as defined in EN 12216. The major modifications to the previous edition are: the scope has been modified to integrate Pergola awnings; 4.1 “Resistance to wind loads” has been modified and has been a
26、ligned with the revised version of EN 1932 “Test methods”; 4.2 “Resistance of non retractable elements to pressure loads” has been added to integrate requirements on external blinds and awnings in the retracted position; 4.6 “Operating mechanism - Diagrams HPV (“Human Pull Value”)”, the use of the H
27、PV diagram has been clarified; 4.11 “Additional thermal resistance R” has been clarified; 4.12 “Total solar energy transmittance gtot” has been added; 4.14 “Materials“, the part related to fabrics has been reviewed completely and EN ISO 105-B04 and EN 12280-2 have been integrated. Requirements for m
28、etals have been clarified; Clause 7 “Assessment and verification of constancy of performance - AVCP” has been aligned with the European template; Annex B “List of significant machine hazards” has been modified and EN ISO 12100 has been introduced; Annex C “Example of calculation for the wind resista
29、nce determination on fixed parts of external blinds in retracted position” has been added; Annex ZA has been modified to introduce a new mandated characteristic: the total solar energy transmittance gtotand revised in accordance with requirements of the CPR.

30、ding to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany,
31、 Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. BS EN 13561:2015EN 13561:2015 (E) 6 Introduction This document is a type C standard as state
32、d in EN ISO 12100. The machinery concerned, i.e. power operated products, and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or
33、 B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. BS EN 13561:2015EN 13561:2015 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the perfor
34、mance requirements for blinds and awnings intended to be fitted externally to buildings and other construction works. It deals also with the significant hazards for assembly, transport, installation, operation and maintenance (see list of significant machine hazards in Annex B). It applies to all ex
35、ternal blinds and awnings whatever their design and nature of the materials used, as follows and defined in EN 12216: folding arm awning, trellis arm awning, pivot arm awning, slide arm awning, vertical roller blind, marquisolette, faade awning, skylight awning, conservatory awning, Pergola awning,
36、Dutch awning, insect screen; brise-soleil. This European Standard does not cover the wind resistance of non-retractable products, e.g. Dutch awnings and brise-soleil. The structural part to which the Pergola awning is fixed is not covered. The products covered by this European Standard may be operat
37、ed manually, with or without compensating springs or by means of electric motors (power operated products). However, the durability and endurance of the autonomous supply for power operated external blinds and awnings not connected to the mains supply are not covered. This European Standard deals al
38、so with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events when external blinds and awnings are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Annex B). This European Standard covers external blinds and awnings mounted externally. In c
39、ase such products are installed internally, they should fulfil all relevant safety requirements defined in EN 13120. The noise emission of power operated external blinds and awnings is not considered to be a relevant hazard according to the machinery health and safety requirements. Therefore this Eu
40、ropean Standard does not contain any specific requirements on noise health and safety objective. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
