EN 3-8:2006

Portable fire extinguishers - Part 8: Additional requirements to EN 3-7 for the construction, resistance to pressure and mechanical tests for extinguishers with a maximum allowable pressure equal to or lower than 30 bar

This European Standard specifies the rules of design, type testing, fabrication and inspection control of portable fire extinguishers manufactured with metallic bodies as far as pressure risk is concerned.
This part applies to portable fire extinguishers of which the maximum allowable pressure PS is lower than or equal to 30 bar and containing non-explosive, non-flammable, non-toxic and non-oxidising fluids.
This European Standard also applies to the metallic gas cartridge of a volume less than 0,12 l (see Annex E) and gives guidance for sound engineering practice for metallic gas cartridges equal to or greater than 0,12 l and less than 0,5 l, see Annex F.
This European Standard does not apply to carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.
NOTE    Annex A gives the classification of the different parts forming the portable fire extinguisher.

Tragbare Feuerlöscher - Teil 8: Zusätzliche Anforderungen zu EN 3-7 an die konstruktive Ausführung, Druckfestigkeit, mechanische Prüfungen für tragbare Feuerlöscher mit einem maximal zulässigen Druck kleiner gleich 30 bar

Diese Europäische Norm legt Regeln zur Bemessung, Typprüfung, Herstellung und Inspektionskontrolle
tragbarer Feuerlöscher mit Metallgehäusen fest, soweit die Gefährdung durch Druck betrachtet wird.
Der vorliegende Teil gilt für tragbare Feuerlöscher, bei denen der zulässige Höchstdruck PS kleiner als oder
gleich 30 bar ist, und die nicht explosive, nicht entzündbare, nicht toxische und nicht oxydierende Flüssigkeiten
enthalten.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt auch für Gasbehälter aus Metall mit einem Volumen kleiner 0,12 l, siehe
Anhang E und sie enthält eine Anleitung zur Herstellung von Gasbehältern aus Metall gleich oder größer
0,12 l und kleiner als 0,5 l entsprechend guter Ingenieurspraxis, siehe Anhang F.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Kohlendioxid-Feuerlöscher.
ANMERKUNG Anhang A enthält die Klassifizierung unterschiedlicher Teile, die den tragbaren Feuerlöscher bilden.

Extincteurs d'incendie portatifs - Partie 8: Exigences additionnelles à l'EN 3-7 pour la construction, la résistance à la pression et les essais mécaniques pour extincteurs dont la pression maximale admissible est inférieure ou égale à 30 bar

La présente Norme européenne définit les règles de conception, d'essai de type, de fabrication et d’inspection des
extincteurs d’incendie portatifs dont le corps est en métal, en ce qui concerne les risques liés à la pression.
La présente partie s'applique aux extincteurs d’incendie portatifs dont la pression maximale admissible PS est
inférieure ou égale à 30 bar et renfermant des fluides inexplosibles, ininflammables, non toxiques et non oxydants.
La présente Norme européenne s'applique également aux cartouches de gaz métalliques dont le volume est
inférieur à 0,12 l, voir l’Annexe E, et donne des lignes directrices relatives aux règles de l’art applicables aux
cartouches de gaz métalliques de volume supérieur ou égal à 0,12 l et inférieur à 0,5 l, voir l’Annexe F.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux extincteurs à dioxyde de carbone.
NOTE 1 L'Annexe A donne la classification des différentes parties constitutives d'un extincteur d’incendie portatif.
