Pyrotechnic articles - Other pyrotechnic articles - Ignition devices

This document defines the terms and specifies the requirements, means of categorization, test methods, minimum labelling requirements and instructions for use, for ignition devices (except ignition devices for pyrotechnic articles for vehicles) of the following generic types:
—   igniters;
—   components for pyrotechnic trains;
—   pyrotechnic cords and fuses;
—   delay fuses;
—   fuzes.
NOTE   Safety fuses are subject to Directive 2014/28/EU and therefore not considered in this document.
This document does not apply for articles containing pyrotechnic compositions that include any of the following substances:
—   arsenic or arsenic compounds;
—   polychlorobenzenes;
—   mercury compounds;
—   white phosphorus;
—   picrates or picric acid.

Pyrotechnische Gegenstände - Sonstige pyrotechnische Gegenstände - Anzündmittel

Dieses Dokument legt die Begriffe und Anforderungen, die Mittel der Kategorisierung, Prüfverfahren, Mindestanforderungen an die Kennzeichnung und die Gebrauchsanweisung fest, die sich auf Anzündmittel (mit Ausnahme von Anzündmitteln für pyrotechnische Gegenstände für Fahrzeuge) der folgenden Gegenstandstypen beziehen:
—   Anzünder;
—   Bestandteile von pyrotechnischen Anzündketten;
—   pyrotechnische Anzündschnüre und  litzen;
—   Anzündverzögerungsmittel ( schnüre);
—   Anzünder für Anzündketten.
ANMERKUNG   Sicherheitsanzündschnüre unterliegen der Richtlinie 2014/28/EU und werden daher nicht in diesem Dokument berücksichtigt.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Gegenstände, die pyrotechnische Sätze enthalten, die irgendeinen der folgenden Stoffe beinhalten:
—   Arsen oder Arsenverbindungen;
—   Polychlorbenzole;
—   Quecksilberverbindungen;
—   weißer Phosphor;
—   Pikrate oder Pikrinsäure.

Articles pyrotechniques - Autres articles pyrotechniques - Dispositifs d’allumage

Le présent document définit les termes et spécifie les exigences, le classement en catégories, les méthodes d’essai, les exigences minimales d’étiquetage et les instructions d’utilisation concernant les types génériques de dispositifs d’allumage suivants (à l’exception des dispositifs d’allumage pour articles pyrotechniques destinés aux véhicules) :
- les inflammateurs ou allumeurs ;
- les composants de chaînes pyrotechniques ;
- les cordeaux et mèches pyrotechniques ;
- les retards pyrotechniques ;
- les fusées (de projectile).
NOTE Les cordeaux de sécurité relèvent de la directive 2014/28/UE et ne sont donc pas pris en considération dans le présent document.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux articles contenant une composition pyrotechnique comprenant l’une des substances suivantes :
- arsenic ou composés d’arsenic ;
- polychlorobenzènes ;
- composés de mercure ;
- phosphore blanc ;
- picrates ou acide picrique.
