BS EN 671-3:2009EN 671-3:2009 (E) 4 Introduction Hose reels and hose systems in proper condition provide a very effective firefighting facility with a continuous supply of water available immediately. They are especially
18、valuable in an early stage of fire and can be operated efficiently by an untrained person. Hose reels and hose systems will have a long service life but it shall be realized that their usefulness depends on maintenance to ensure instant readiness when required. BS EN 671-3:2009EN 671-3:2009 (E) 5 1
19、Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for inspection and maintenance of hose reels and hose systems such that they continue to provide the service for which they were manufactured, supplied or installed i.e. to ensure a first emergency intervention to fight a fire before more powerful
20、means can be implemented. This European Standard is applicable to hose reel and hose system installations in all types of buildings irrespective of the nature of use of the buildings. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. Fo
21、r dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

23、erson with the necessary training and experience with access to the relevant tools, equipment and information, manuals and knowledge of any special procedures recommended by the manufacturer, to be capable of carrying out the relevant maintenance procedures of this European Standard 3.2 maintenance
24、combination of all technical and administrative actions including supervision actions, intended to retain an item, or restore it to a state in which it can perform a required function 3.3 responsible person person responsible for or having effective control over fire safety provisions adopted in or
25、appropriate to the premises or the building NOTE Due to national regulations the responsible person could either be the user or the owner of the premises. 3.4 supplier party responsible for the product, process or service and able to ensure that the quality assurance is exercised NOTE The definition
26、 may apply to manufacturers, distributors, importers, assemblers, service organizations. BS EN 671-3:2009EN 671-3:2009 (E) 6 4 Routine checks by the responsible person Regular checks of all hose reels and hose systems shall be carried out by the responsible person or his representative at intervals
27、depending on environmental circumstances and/or fire risk/hazard, to make sure that each hose reel or hose system is: a) located in the designated place; b) unobstructed, visible and has legible operating instructions; c) not obviously defective, corroded or leaking. The responsible person shall arr
28、ange for immediate corrective action, where necessary. The result of regular checks shall be recorded by the responsible person. 5 Records of hose reels and hose systems In order to check conformity with the manufacturers instructions of the hose reel or hose system installation, the responsible per
29、son shall keep records of a plan showing the exact location and technical data of the installation. 6 Inspection and maintenance 6.1 Annual inspection and maintenance The inspection and maintenance shall be carried out by the competent person. The hose shall be fully run out, put under building syst
30、em pressure and the following points checked: a) the appliance is unobstructed and free from damage and components not corroded or leaking; b) operating instructions are clear and legible; c) the location is clearly marked; d) brackets for wall mounting are suitable for their purpose and are fixed a
31、nd firm; e) the flow of water is steady and sufficient; NOTE The use of flow indicator and pressure gauge is recommended. For lay flat hose systems this test can be done with another hose with the same specifications e.g. shorter length. f) pressure gauge, if fitted, is working satisfactorily and wi
32、thin its operating range; g) the entire length of hose shall be inspected for signs of cracking, distortion, wear or damage; if the hose shows any signs of defect it shall be replaced or proof-tested to maximum working pressure; h) hose clips or bindings are of the correct type and are securely fast
33、ened; i) hose drums rotates freely in both directions; j) for swinging reels, check that the pivot rotates easily and that the reel swings minimum required angles stated in Parts 1 and 2 of this European Standard; BS EN 671-3:2009EN 671-3:2009 (E) 7 k) on manual reels, check the manual stop valve is
34、 of correct type and that it operates easily and correctly; l) on automatic reels, check the correct operation of the automatic valve and check for the correct operation of the isolating service valve; m) check the condition of the water supply pipe work, particular attention shall be paid to any fl
35、exible pipe work for signs of damage or wear; n) if fitted with a cabinet, check for signs of damage and check that the cabinet doors open freely; o) check that the nozzle is of the correct type and easy to operate; p) check the operation of any hose guide and ensure they are correctly and firmly fi
36、xed; q) leave the hose reel and hose system ready for immediate use; if any extensive maintenance is necessary the hose reel or hose system shall be labelled “OUT OF ORDER“ and the competent person shall inform the user/owner. 6.2 Periodic inspection and maintenance for all hoses Every 5 years all h
37、oses shall be pressurized to maximum working pressure according to EN 671-1 and/or EN 671-2. 7 Records of inspection and maintenance The record shall include: a) date (year and month); b) result; c) extent and date of installation of replacement parts; d) if any further action is required; e) date (
38、year and month) for the next inspection and maintenance; f) identification of each hose reel and/or hose system. After inspection and maintenance it is recommended that hose reel and hose system is protected with a security seal. After inspection and necessary corrective measures (6.1 and 6.2), hose
39、 reels and hose systems shall be marked “CHECKED“ by the competent person. A permanent record of all inspections, checks and tests shall be kept by the responsible person. 8 Fire safety during inspection and maintenance Because inspection and maintenance can temporarily reduce the effectiveness of f
40、ire protection: a) depending on the estimated fire hazard, only a limited number of hose reels and hose systems shall undergo extensive maintenance simultaneously in one particular area; BS EN 671-3:2009EN 671-3:2009 (E) 8 b) the provision of additional fire safety precautions and safety instruction
41、s shall be considered during the maintenance period and during periods when water supplies are shut down. 9 Rectification of defects Only components (for example hoses, nozzles, inlet stop valves) approved by the manufacturer/supplier of the hose reel or hose system shall be used to replace those co
42、mponents found to be defective. NOTE It is essential that all defects are rectified in the shortest possible time to ensure that the firefighting installation is restored in a satisfactory condition. 10 Maintenance and inspection label Maintenance and inspection data shall be recorded on a label whi
43、ch shall not cover any of the manufacturers marking. The following data shall be provided on the label: a) the wording CHECKED (see 7); b) name and address of the hose reel or hose system supplier (see 3.4); c) mark clearly identifying the competent person (see 3.1); d) date (year and month) when th
