Overview
EN 13087-10:2012 - published by CEN - is the European test method for assessing the resistance of protective helmets to radiant heat. It forms Part 10 of the EN 13087 series of helmet test methods and is intended to be used alongside product-specific helmet standards to determine whether a helmet meets required performance limits under defined radiant-heat exposure conditions.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and purpose: Specifies the test method for resistance to radiant heat to enable assessment of helmet performance as required by the appropriate helmet standard.
- Prerequisites: The applicable helmet standard must define performance requirements, number of samples, sample preparation, conditioning and test sequences, heat flux intensity and fitting instructions.
- Test principle: A calibrated infra‑red heater irradiates a helmet mounted on an instrumented headform while temperature sensors on the headform record temperature rise.
- Apparatus and components:
- Heater with a flat radiating surface of (250 ± 5) mm × (250 ± 5) mm and peak emission wavelength between 2 µm and 3 µm.
- Calibrated radiometer/calorimeter to set and verify heat flux intensity.
- Test headform complying with EN 960:2006, mounted with a nominal 30° lateral inclination.
- Three calibrated temperature sensing elements (thermocouples on copper discs of (7 ± 1) mm diameter) positioned at defined points on the headform surface.
- Procedure highlights:
- Measure and set distance d between heater and helmeted headform; verify heat flux with radiometer.
- Expose the helmet to radiant heat for (180 ± 2) s and record temperature changes.
- Report the maximum temperature difference between pre‑ and post‑exposure measurements.
- Allow at least 4 hours cooling before further testing.
- Measurement quality: Annex A requires an estimate of the uncertainty of measurement to be reported with test results.
Applications and users
- Product test laboratories performing conformity and type testing of helmets.
- Helmet manufacturers validating designs, materials and protective performance against radiant heat.
- Safety engineers and procurement specialists specifying helmets for industries exposed to thermal radiation (e.g., firefighting support equipment, industrial thermal hazard zones).
- Notified bodies and certification organizations using standardized methods to assess compliance with European PPE requirements.
