Overview
EN 402:2003 is a CEN European Standard for respiratory protective devices titled “Lung governed demand self-contained open-circuit compressed air breathing apparatus with full face mask or mouthpiece assembly for escape – Requirements, testing, marking.” It sets minimum requirements, laboratory and practical performance tests, and marking/information obligations specifically for compressed-air escape apparatus. This standard applies to lung-governed demand, self-contained, open-circuit breathing sets intended for escape - it does not cover apparatus for work and rescue or diving.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope & classification
- Defines apparatus type and classifies devices by rated working duration (breathing-machine test at 35 L/min; durations in 5-minute steps).
- Design and ergonomics
- Simple, reliable, compact construction; no protruding parts; full function in any orientation; quick activation from storage.
- Materials & hygiene
- Materials resistant to expected temperatures, corrosion and cleaning/disinfecting agents; skin-contact materials must not cause irritation.
- Mass and carrying
- Complete apparatus (including carrying container) limited to ≤ 5 kg when intended for on-person carriage for at least 8 hours.
- Components and performance
- Requirements for facepieces (full face mask or mouthpiece assemblies), exhalation valves, harness, connections, hoses, pressure vessels, pressure reducer, safety valve, pressure indicator and mechanical strength.
- Environmental & safety tests
- Temperature performance, flammability resistance, particulate protection, leak tightness and protection against environmental conditions.
- Testing methods
- Visual, mechanical strength, temperature resistance, pressure reducer tests, low temperature practical performance, breathing resistance and practical performance tests per referenced EN test methods.
- Marking & documentation
- Marking requirements and manufacturer information, with Annex ZA linking to relevant EU Directive provisions.
Practical applications & who uses it
- Manufacturers and designers of emergency escape breathing apparatus (EEBA) use EN 402:2003 to design compliant products.
- Test laboratories and certification bodies apply the standard for type approval, conformity assessment and product testing.
- Safety managers, procurement officers and compliance teams in industries requiring escape devices - e.g., chemical plants, offshore installations, confined-space operations, maritime and utilities - rely on the standard when specifying escape PPE.
- Regulators and notified bodies reference EN 402:2003 for harmonized safety requirements and markings.
Related standards
