4.4.2 Bidets without overflow A bidet with a non-closable outlet or a floor gully may also be used as a protection against overflowing. In this case the bidet is related to Class CL 00. 4.5 Durability Products conforming to the requirements of 4.2 to 4.4 are deemed to be durable. 5 Test methods 5.1 General All tests shall be carried out on the same sample bidet. Install the bidet to be tested on a firm flat horizontal or vertical surface as appropriate with a layer of mortar or other material to accommodate any unevenness. 5.2 Static load test — The bidet shall be fixed in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction onto a smooth surface with a layer of mortar or other facing material used for pointing between the back of the bidet and the smooth surface. — Gradually apply a force of (4,00 ± 0,1) kN on top of a wooden beam with a cross section of 100 mm × 100 mm positioned across the geometric centre of the bowl of the bidet parallel to the wall (see Figure 3). Allow the force to remain in position for a period of 1 h. — Record any failure to comply with 4.2. Any distortion at the points of direct loading shall not constitute a failure. SIST EN 14528:2015
