EN 1836:2005+A1:2007 apply. 4 Requirements 4.1 General All the samples tested shall comply with the requirements of this European Standard. Goggles can be provided with different oculars. 4.2 Design and manufacture Goggles shall be free from projections, sharp edges or other defects which are likely to cause discomfort or injury during use. The verification of this requirement shall be made according to 5.11 and 5.12. 4.3 Materials Any materials (or combination of materials) may be used, provided they meet the requirements of this European Standard. SIST EN 1938:2010
Figure 1 — Definition of the field of vision 4.6.2 Lens requirements 4.6.2.1 General The lens requirements shall be as given in Table 1. The requirements apply to goggles with all the oculars declared by the manufacturer. SIST EN 1938:2010

4.6.2.2 Permissible transmittance and filter categories There are three transmittance categories for oculars for goggles for motorcycle and moped users. The range of the luminous transmittance for these three categories is given by the values in Table 2. An overlap of the transmittance values of not more than ±
2 % (absolute) is permitted between the categories 0,1 and 2. If the supplier declares a luminous transmittance value, the tolerance for the value is ±
3 % absolute for transmittance values. When describing the transmittance properties of photochromic filters, two categories for transmittance values are generally used. These two values correspond to the faded state and to the darkened state of the filter. In the case of gradient filters the transmittance value at the reference point is used to characterise the luminous transmittance / category of the oculars. Table 2 also specifies the mandatory UV requirements for oculars for goggles for motorcycle and moped users. Oculars for which the enhanced infrared absorption is claimed, shall meet the requirements of the last column of Table 2. SIST EN 1938:2010

In case of oculars with a luminous transmittance of less than 75 % the manufacturer shall include in the information to be supplied the warning: “Not suitable for night driving or twilight condition”.
4.6.2.3 Special transmittance requirements and claimed transmittance properties If the oculars have special transmittance requirements and/or the claimed transmittance properties described in 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 of EN 1836:2005+A1:2007 then the oculars shall satisfy the requirements described in each corresponding clause of EN 1836:2005+A1:2007. All oculars shall have a luminous transmittance value greater than or equal to 18 %. 4.6.2.4 Requirements for road driving 4.6.2.4.1 Recognition of signal lights
The goggles shall satisfy the requirement of the recognition of signal lights according to 4.1.3.2.3 of EN 1836:2005+A1:2007. 4.6.2.4.2 Spectral transmittance The goggles shall satisfy the requirement of the spectral transmittance according to 4.1.3.2.2 of EN 1836:2005+A1:2007. 4.7 Non optical requirements 4.7.1 General The requirements apply to goggles with all the oculars declared by the manufacturer. If the only difference between oculars is the colour, the compliance can be verified only on one type. 4.7.2 Impact resistance The requirement is satisfied if the goggles withstand the impact of a steel ball, when tested in accordance with 5.8.

5.2 Conditioning and test conditions Immediately before starting the test series, the test specimen shall be conditioned for at least 4 h in an atmosphere maintained at a temperature of (23 ± 5) °C and a relative humidity of (50 ± 20) %. Actual testing shall be carried out within 1 h after removal from the conditioning cabinet in an atmosphere maintained within the same temperature band. 5.3 Field of vision The size of the field of vision shall be measured with a perimeter in conjunction with the medium size head-form as defined in Clause 17 of EN 168:2001. The size of the field of vision of goggles for children shall be measured with a perimeter in conjunction with the small size head-form of EN 168:2001. The goggle shall be mounted as shown in Figure 2 so that the two axes of rotation A and B and the optical axis C intersect in the front surface of one eye at the interpupillary distance. Radiation is provided by a laser beam of (1 ± 0,5) mm diameter along axis C. SIST EN 1938:2010

axis (see text) Figure 2 — Test assembly for the measurement of the field of vision At (250 ± 5) mm distance from the surface of the eyes of the test head a transparent screen is placed centred to the middle of the eyes. On this screen the two ellipses shown in Figure 3 are drawn. The horizontal length of the ellipses shall be of 320 mm, the vertical width of the ellipses shall be of 250 mm. The centre distance of the two ellipses shall be d' = c + (200 ± 1) mm, where c is the pupillary distance. The pupillary distance is 64 mm for the medium head-form and 54 mm for the small head-form, or it may be specified differently by the manufacturer. In this case, for a pupillary distance up to 56 mm the small head-form shall be used for the test. The horizontal axis shall be parallel to and 7 mm below the height of the line connecting the centres of the two eyes. The plane of the ellipses shall be parallel to the back flat portion of the head-form. The arrangement is rotated around axis A and the axis B so that the circumference of the ellipse is hit by the laser beam. Such a beam shall not be shielded by the frame of the goggle. The test shall be done for both eyes. SIST EN 1938:2010
