When measuring high peak emission sound pressure levels, the microphone and the entire instrumentation system shall have the capability of handling linear peak levels at least up to 125 dB. 5 General requirements and test conditions 5.1 Product conditioning Before testing, any fabrics used shall be cleaned or washed and dried twice in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. 5.2 Test conditions The tests shall be carried out in ambient conditions of (20 ± 5) °C. The tests are designed to be applied to infant swings that are fully assembled and ready for use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If the infant swing can be assembled or adjusted in different ways, the most onerous combinations shall be used for each test. If the infant swing has any battery-powered mechanism, it shall be tested using new non-rechargeable alkaline batteries; if the infant swing is supplied with its own rechargeable battery pack, it shall be tested with the battery pack fully charged in accordance with the instructions for use.

Unless otherwise specified, the test forces may be applied by any suitable device which does not adversely affect the results. 5.5 Order of tests Unless otherwise stated in the test methods, the tests shall be carried out on the same infant swing in the order listed in this standard. 6 !Chemical hazards 6.1 General If testing is required, a separate unconditioned sample may be used for the tests in Clause 6. 6.2 Migration of certain elements (see A.2) The migration of elements from materials on exterior surfaces shall not exceed the limits listed in Table 1.

When testing is performed the method of EN ISO 14362-1 and EN ISO 17234-1, adapted as appropriate to measure aniline, shall be used. " 7 !Thermal hazards (see A.3) 7.1
Requirement When tested in accordance with 7.2, there shall be no surface flash and the rate of spread of flame shall not exceed 50 mm/s. A separate sample, conditioned according to 5.1, may be used for these tests. 7.2 Test method To verify the surface flash effect apply the test flame defined in EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014, 5.5 for (3 ± 0,5) s to the infant swing in different places likely to cause surface flash. To verify rate of spread of flame apply the test flame defined in EN 71-2:2011+A1:2014, 5.4. " SIST EN 16232:2013+A1:2018

NOTE The measurement of dimensions of protective barriers is taken without removing the articulated test mass from the product. SIST EN 16232:2013+A1:2018

Figure 10 — Examples of protective barriers If present, protective barriers shall not allow the test probe to come into contact to an entrapment, compression or shearing point when tested in accordance with 8.1.2.2.2. 8.1.2.2.2 Test method Push the 7mm probe (see 4.6) against the barrier from the inside of the infant swing with a force of 30 N; check if it is possible to put the probe in any compression, shearing or entrapment point behind the barrier. This test shall be carried out in the most onerous position. 8.2 Hazards due to sound level 8.2.1 Requirement When tested in accordance with 8.2.2, infant swings that include any device which generates sounds shall conform to the following requirements: a) the A-weighted emission sound pressure level, LpA, shall not exceed 80 dB when measured in a free field. b) the C-weighted peak emission sound pressure level, LpC peak, shall not exceed 115 dB. This requirement does not apply to loudspeakers connected to external sound generating devices (e.g. personal music players …). 8.2.2 Test method Place the infant swing on a concrete floor in a test environment which meets the qualification requirements of EN ISO 3746:2010, Annex A. NOTE In practice this means that most normally furnished rooms with a volume exceeding 30 m3 will qualify. Test rigs used for the mounting of the measuring device and/or the operator shall not affect the sound emission of the infant swing nor cause sound reflections which will increase the sound pressure levels at the measuring points. The microphone (see 4.9) shall be placed at a distance of (30 ± 5) mm above the geometrical centre of the top surface of the backrest and perpendicular to the backrest. The microphone shall be fixed to the backrest to follow the swinging movement. Operate the infant swing in the mode of its intended or foreseeable use which produces the highest emission sound pressure level to the microphone position. SIST EN 16232:2013+A1:2018
