three grades and three extensions
for the security - the addition of security requirements and the corresponding tests - the modification of the number of test samples (8 instead of 3) - the increase to 550 cycles/h rate for the durability test. 4.8 Security (7 – seventh digit) Three grades have been added into this draft to give similarity with prEN13126-3, three extensions have also been added for the locking style of the handle. Grade 0: Without security Grade 1: 35 Nm resistance against twisting-off and forcing-off Grade 2: 100 Nm resistance against twisting-off and forcing-off Extension 0: No locking mechanism Extension 1: Non-key operated locking mechanism (e.g. ‘PTO’: Push-to-open) Extension 2: Key-operated locking mechanism
Durability Test Procedure, the rate that the cycle test is carried out has been increased to 550 cycles/h in line with prEN13126-3 7.9
Locking Mechanism durability test – new requirement 7.10 Torque resistance of the locking mechanism / solid fixing test – new requirement 7.11 Test – Resistance against twisting-off and forcing-off – new requirement In general there has been a reduction in the tolerance band within the draft over the last published standard. A full contribution to the preparation of this European Standard has been made by the European manufacturers´ organization ‘ARGE’ and national standards bodies.
