BS EN 14035-28:2004EN 14035-28:2004 (E) 6 1 Scope This document specifies requirements for the construction, performance, primary packaging and labelling of Roman candles and the corresponding test methods. It is applicable to firewor
33、ks which are classified as Roman candles in categories 2 and 3 in EN 14035-2. It is not applicable to Roman candles containing pyrotechnic composition which includes any of the following substances: arsenic or arsenic compounds; mixtures containing a mass fraction of chlorates greater than 80 %; mix
34、tures of chlorates with metals; mixtures of chlorates with red phosphorus; mixtures of chlorates with potassium hexacyanoferrate(II); mixtures of chlorates with sulfur; mixtures of chlorates with sulfides; lead or lead compounds; mercury compounds; white phosphorus; picrates or picric acid; potassiu
35、m chlorate with a mass fraction of bromates greater than 0,15 %; sulfur with an acidity, expressed in mass fraction of sulphuric acid, greater than 0,002 %; zirconium with a particle size of less than 40 m. NOTE In EN 14035-2, Roman candles are classified as follows: - Brief description: tube contai
36、ning alternate propellant charges, pyrotechnic units and transmitting fuse(s). - Principal effects: ejection of pyrotechnic units in succession, producing a series of visual and/or aural effects, in the air. Schemes for type testing of Roman candles and batch testing of Roman candles are specified i
