29、78BS EN ISO 20344:2011ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a
30、subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
31、 (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical commi
32、ttees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be
33、 held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 20344 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 161, Foot and leg protectors, in collaboration with ISO Technical Committee ISO/TC 94, Personal safety Protective clothing and equipme
34、nt, Subcommittee SC 3, Foot protection, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 20344:2004), which has been technically revised. It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum ISO
35、 20344:2004/Cor.1:2005 and the Amendment ISO 20344:2004/Amd.1:2007. The main differences between this edition and the 2004 edition are: Annex A, inclusion of a new procedure for plasticine calibration; Annex C, inclusion of a new table for footwear sizing; 4.1, Table 1, clarification of the method f
36、or sampling; 5.1, clarification on testing of ergonomic features; 5.4 and 5.5, inclusion of a reference to EN 12568:2010; 5.8.3, different test methods for anti-penetration insoles; 5.15.2, inclusion of a new test method for water resistance; 6.4.2 and 6.5.2, inclusion of test methods (due to the wi
37、thdrawal of ISO 2023); 6.11, replacement of the method for determination of chromium VI by a reference to ISO 17075; withdrawal of 5.11, “Determination of the electrical insulation”.ISO 20344:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 20344:2011BS EN ISO 20344:2011INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 203

46、ance with the requirements specified in ISO 20345, ISO 20347 and any specific job-related footwear standards (e.g. ISO 17249, Safety footwear with resistance to chain saw cutting), together with the minimum number of test pieces taken from each sample, shall be in accordance with Table 1.Wherever po
47、ssible and necessary to ensure the essential safety requirements, test pieces shall be taken from the whole footwear. This paragraph is applicable to all of Table 1.NOTE 1 If it is not possible to obtain a large enough test piece from the footwear, then a sample of the material from which the compon
48、ent has been manufactured may be used instead. This should be noted in the test report.NOTE 2 Footwear sizes are defined in Annex C.Where samples are required from each of three sizes, these shall comprise the smallest, middle and largest size of the footwear under test indicated as (SML) in Table 1
49、.4.2 ConditioningAll test pieces shall be conditioned in a standard atmosphere of (23 2) C and (50 5) % RH for a minimum of 48 h before testing, unless otherwise stated in the test method.The maximum time which shall elapse between removal from the conditioning atmosphere and the start of testing shall not be greater than 10 min, unless otherwise stated in the test method.4.3 Prerequisites on the testing procedureWhen several test pieces are tested, at least the worst results per size
