2、of EN ISO 23537-1:2016. It is identical to ISO 23537-1:2016. Together with BS EN ISO 23537-2:2016, it supersedes BS EN 13537:2012 which is withdrawn.BSI, as a member of CEN, is obliged to publish EN ISO 23537-1 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the developmen
3、t of this European Standard, the UK committee voted against its approval as a European Standard.It is the opinion of the UK committee that the variability and repeatability of the thermal test was not correctly verified following agreed test procedure modifications during the development of this sta
4、ndard: e.g. by application of a round robin testing process. In addition the calibration of thermal manikins is still in question, which could add variability to the test procedure.The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted by Technical Committee SW/136, Sports, playground and other recre

The work of preparing International Standards is normally c
23、arried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a 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 wor
24、k. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the diffe
25、rent approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may

It is based on continued development of the European Standard, EN 13537.This I
31、nternational Standard consists of two parts which allows for separate validation of thermal properties and product and material performance. This separation of parts also allows for continued development of new product combinations as it encourages manufacturers to consider new combinations of mater
32、ials which for example might not be suitable to test by traditional textile physical tests, but which can still have thermal properties evaluated.This part of ISO 23537 considers important aspects to the thermal performance of the sleeping bag.During the development of this part of ISO 23537, consid
33、eration was given to the need to continue to reduce inter laboratory variability of the thermal testing and a number of test parameters have been tightened as a consequence.Consideration has also been given to the definition of extreme climate zone which is now referred to as temperatures 10 % (vari
34、ation coefficient);c) global bias (i.e. mean value) on the complete set of the reference sleeping bags 5 % (variation coefficient).Additionally, the repeatability of the measurement on each sleeping bag shall be better than 4 % (variation coefficient).5 Test reportThe test report shall include at le
35、ast the following:a) reference and description of the sleeping bag sample;b) if only one sleeping bag was used for the 3 measurements (see 4.4.7), a note saying that only one sleeping bag was used;2) The reference sets of sleeping bags are available from: a) SWEREA IVF AB, Box 104, SE- 431 22 Mlndal

49、ermal manikin “Charlie 3” has a human shape with trunk, head with hair, mobile arms and legs, hands and feet. Its dimensions correspond to German standard garment size 50/52. Its mass is 44 kg. When laid within a sleeping bag, the manikin has his left arm folded over the chest, and his right arm lying alongside the torso.The body of the manikin is divided into 16 segments with independent surface temperature sensors and electric heating wires. The heating is monitored to maintain surface temperature of the corresponding segment at a constant value
