Blinds and shutters - Thermal and visual comfort - Performance characteristics and classification

This European Standard applies to the whole range of shutters, awnings and blinds defined in EN 12216, described as solar protection devices in this European Standard.
It states the properties that shall be taken into account when comparing products.
It also specifies the corresponding parameters and classifications to quantify the following properties:
-   for the thermal comfort:
-   the solar factor (total solar energy transmittance);
-   the shading factor;
-   the secondary heat transfer factor;
-   the direct solar transmittance;
-   for the visual comfort:
-   the opacity control;
-   the night privacy;
-   the visual contact with the outside;
-   the glare control;
-   the daylight utilisation;
-   the rendering of colours.
NOTE   For other purposes, more detailed methods using different parameters can be used.
Some of the characteristics (e.g. gtot) are not applicable when products are not parallel to the glazing (e.g. folding-arm awnings).
This European Standard is not applicable to the products using fluorescent materials.

Abschlüsse - Thermischer und visueller Komfort - Leistungsanforderungen und Klassifizierung

Diese Europäische Norm gilt für sämtliche Arten von Abschlüssen, Markisen und Jalousien, die in EN 12216 definiert sind und in dieser Europäischen Norm als Sonnenschutzeinrichtungen bezeichnet werden.
In ihr sind die Eigenschaften festgelegt, die bei einem Vergleich von Produkten zu berücksichtigen sind.
Darüber hinaus sind die entsprechenden Parameter und Klassifizierungen zur quantitativen Bestimmung der folgenden Eigenschaften festgelegt:
-   Für den thermischen Komfort:
-   des Sonnenfaktors (Gesamtenergiedurchlassgrad);
-   des sekundären Wärmeabgabegrades nach innen;
-   des direkten Transmissionsgrades.
-   Für den visuellen Komfort:
-   der Regulierung der Lichtdurchlässigkeit;
-   des Sichtschutzes bei Nacht;
-   des Sichtkontaktes nach außen;
-   des Blendschutzes;
-   der Tageslichtnutzung;
-   des Farbwiedergabeindexes.
ANMERKUNG   Für andere Verwendungszwecke können detailliertere Verfahren mit anderen Parametern angewendet werden.
Einige Merkmale (z. B. gtot) sind nicht anwendbar, wenn Produkte nicht parallel zur Verglasung angebracht sind (z. B. Gelenkarmmarkisen).
Diese Europäische Norm ist nicht auf Produkte anwendbar, bei denen fluoreszierende Materialien verwendet werden.
