Laboratory furniture - Storage units for laboratories - Requirements and test methods
This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for storage units (see 3.1) used in laboratories.
This European Standard specifies strength, durability and safety requirements to prevent serious injury through normal functional use, as well as misuse that might reasonably be expected to occur.
Safety, depending on the structure of the building, is not included e.g. the strength of wall hanging cabinets includes only the cabinet and its parts. The wall and the fixing in the wall are not included.
It should be understood that the tests do not ensure that structural failure will not eventually occur as a result of habitual misuse or after an excessively long period of service.
Assessment of ageing, degradation and the heating effect of appliances are not included nor are ergonomic aspects or resistance to fire.
Labormöbel - Schränke und Regale für Laboratorien - Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für Schränke und Regale (siehe 3.1) zur Ver-wendung
in Laboratorien fest.
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an die Festigkeit, Dauerhaltbarkeit und Sicherheit fest, um ernst-hafte
Verletzungen auf Grund üblicher funktionsbedingter Nutzung sowie auf Grund von zu erwartendem
Missbrauch zu verhüten.
Die von der Gebäudekonstruktion abhängige Sicherheit ist nicht einbezogen, so gilt z. B. die Festigkeit von an
der Wand befestigten Schränken nur für den Schrank und die für die Befestigung verwendeten Teile. Die
Wand selbst und die wandseitigen Befestigungsmittel sind nicht einbezogen.
Verständlicherweise wird durch die Prüfungen nicht sichergestellt, dass Mängel, die infolge regelmäßigen
Missbrauchs oder nach einer übermäßig langen Nutzungszeit bei tragenden Teilen auftreten können, vermie-den
werden.
Die Bewertung von Alterung, Verschlechterung und die Wärmeeinwirkung durch Geräte sowie ergonomische
Aspekte oder Feuerbeständigkeit sind nicht einbezogen.
Mobilier de laboratoire - Eléments de stockage pour laboratoires - Exigences et méthodes d'essai
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences et les méthodes d'essai des éléments de stockage
(voir 3.1) utilisés dans les laboratoires.
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences de résistance, de durabilité et de sécurité afin d'éviter
des blessures graves pendant une utilisation fonctionnelle normale, ainsi que pendant les utilisations abusives
auxquelles on peut raisonnablement s'attendre.
La sécurité qui dépend de la structure du bâtiment n'est pas incluse. La résistance des meubles fixés au mur,
par exemple, n'inclut que le meuble et ses parties mais le mur et la fixation dans le mur ne sont pas incluses.
Il convient de comprendre que les essais ne permettent pas d'assurer qu'une défaillance structurelle ne finira
pas par se produire à la suite d'une utilisation abusive habituelle ou après une durée de service
excessivement longue.
L'évaluation du vieillissement et de la dégradation ainsi que l'effet du chauffage sur les appareils ne sont pas
inclus, les aspects ergonomiques et la résistance au feu ne l'étant pas non plus.
