Office furniture - Storage furniture - Part 2: Safety requirements
This document specifies safety requirements for office storage furniture.
This document does not apply to high density mechanized filing systems, rotary filing systems or plan files.
It should be understood that fulfilling the specified requirements does not ensure that failure will not occur as a result of habitual misuse or after an excessively long period of service.
Safety depending on 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 wall attachment are not included.
Assessment of ageing is not included.
Büromöbel - Büroschränke - Teil 2: Sicherheitstechnische Anforderungen
Diese Europäische Norm legt sicherheitstechnische Anforderungen an Büroschränke fest.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für mechanisierte Aktenschränke, Karussellaktenschränke oder Planschränke.
Es sollte bewusst sein, dass auch bei Einhaltung der festgelegten Anforderungen ein Versagen durch groben Missbrauch oder eine überlange Nutzungszeit nicht ausgeschlossen ist.
Nicht eingeschlossen sind Sicherheitsaspekte, die von der Konstruktion des Gebäudes abhängig sind, so bezieht sich zum Beispiel die Festigkeit bei wandmontierten Schränken, nur auf den Büroschrank und seine Teile. Die Wand und die Wandbefestigung sind nicht eingeschlossen.
Die Beurteilung der Alterung ist nicht enthalten.
Mobilier de bureau - Meubles de rangement - Partie 2 : Exigences de sécurité
Le présent document fixe les exigences de sécurité des meubles de rangement de bureau.
Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux systèmes mécanisés d'archivage, aux systèmes de classement rotatifs et aux meubles de rangement pour plans.
Il est bien entendu que la conformité aux exigences ne saurait fournir l'assurance qu'aucune défaillance ne se produira lors d'un mauvais usage régulier ou après une durée excessive d'utilisation.
Les aspects de sécurité liés à la structure du bâtiment ne sont pas inclus, par exemple, la résistance des meubles accrochés au mur comprend uniquement la meuble et ses éléments. Le mur et les fixations au mur ne sont pas inclus.
L'évaluation du vieillissement n'est pas incluse.

EN 14073-3:2004 Office furniture - Storage furniture - Part 3: Test methods for the determination of stability and strength of the structure EN 14074:2004 Office furniture – Tables and desks and storage furniture - Test methods for the determination of strength and durability of moving parts. 3 Safety Requirements 3.1 Principles Storage furniture shall be designed so as to minimise the risk of injury in normal use. The following safety requirements are based upon the knowledge that office storage furniture and its parts are likely to cause injury only when they are heavy and fall through a significant distance.
This is possible if floor standing units overbalance, wall or screen mounted units become detached, or heavy parts become detached from units. Therefore, the test sequence and the safety requirements specified in clause 3.5 and 3.6 are applicable: When the height of the centre of gravity of the unit, or any part is > 650mm above the floor and the total mass is > 10kg When the potential energy is > 65 Nm and the distance from the floor to the lowest edge of the unit or any part is > 300mm The potential energy is the multiplication of the total mass of the unit, or the part, and the height above the floor in meter (m) to the centre of gravity. SIST EN 14073-2:2004
3.2 Determination of the centre of gravity The centre of gravity of a part or unit shall be taken as the geometric centre of the useable volume of drawers and units, and as the geome
