Pyrotechnic articles - Other pyrotechnic articles - Cartridges for powder actuated tools

This European Standard defines the procedures for classifying, testing and labelling of cartridges for powder actuated tools (PAT cartridges), as defined in Clause 3 of this standard.
This European Standard does not apply to pyrotechnic articles containing blasting agents and military explosives except black powder and flash composition.
PAT cartridges contain pyrotechnic composition(s) delivering mainly gases, intended to propel a piston. The piston propels fasteners (e.g. nails) or drives hard marking characters into appropriate materials.
This standard also applies to PAT cartridges sold to persons younger than 18 years, if this is permitted by the member state due to the low hazard of the PAT cartridges.
NOTE   PAT cartridges can also be used for hard marking tools. Information on cartridge operated fixing and hard marking tools can be found in EN 15895:2011.
This European Standard applies to the cartridges listed in Table 1.

Pyrotechnische Gegenstände - Sonstige pyrotechnische Gegenstände - Kartuschen für kartuschenbetriebene handgehaltene Werkzeuge

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Verfahren zum Einstufen, zur Prüfung und Kennzeichnung von Kartuschen für Befestigungswerkzeuge (Befestigungskartuschen) nach der Definition in Abschnitt 3 dieser Norm fest.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für pyrotechnische Gegenstände, die militärische Explosivstoffe oder kommerzielle Sprengstoffe außer Schwarzpulver und Blitzsatz enthalten.
Befestigungskartuschen enthalten pyrotechnische(n) Satz/Sätze, die vorwiegend Gase freisetzen, die einen Kolben antreiben. Der Kolben schlägt auf Befestigungselemente (z. B. Nägel) oder treibt harte Markierzeichen in entsprechende Materialien.
Diese Norm gilt auch für Kartuschen für Befestigungswerkzeuge, die an Personen unter 18 Jahren verkauft werden, wenn dies durch das Mitgliedsland aufgrund der geringen Gefährlichkeit der Kartuschen für Befestigungswerkzeuge gestattet ist.
ANMERKUNG   Kartuschen für Befestigungswerkzeuge können auch für Hartmarkierwerkzeuge benutzt werden. Informationen zu kartuschenbetriebenen Befestigungs- und Markierwerkzeugen können in EN 15895:2011 gefunden werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für die in Tabelle 1 aufgeführten Kartuschen.

Articles pyrotechniques - Autres articles pyrotechniques - Cartouches pour outils à charge propulsive

La présente Norme européenne définit les modes opératoires liés à la classification, à l'essai et à l'étiquetage des charges de scellement pour outils utilisant ces mêmes charges tels que définis à l'Article 3 de la présente norme.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux articles pyrotechniques contenant des explosifs, et explosifs militaires, autres que de la poudre noire ou une composition éclair.
Les charges de scellement PAT contiennent une ou plusieurs compositions pyrotechniques libérant principalement des gaz, dans le but de propulser un piston. Le piston, à son tour, propulse des projectiles (par exemple, des clous) ou entraîne des caractères de marquage dur dans des matériaux appropriés.
La présente norme s'applique également aux charges de scellement vendues aux particuliers de moins de 18 ans, si cela est permis par l'État membre, en raison du faible risque induit par les charges de scellement.
NOTE   Les charges de scellement peuvent également être utilisées pour les outils de marquage. Les informations concernant les outils de marquage et de scellement figurent dans l'EN 15895.
La présente Norme européenne s'applique aux charges de scellement listées au Tableau 1.

Pirotehnični izdelki - Drugi pirotehnični izdelki - Pritrdilne kartuše

Standard EN 16264 definira postopke za klasifikacijo, preskušanje in označevanje kartuš za plinska orodja (kartuše PAT), kot je definirano v točki 3 tega standarda. Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za pirotehnične izdelke, ki vsebujejo vojaški eksploziv in tržne eksplozivne sestavine razen črnega smodnika ali bliskovnega praška. Kartuše PAT vsebujejo pirotehnične praške, ki večinoma zagotavljajo pline, potrebne za poganjanje bata. Bat omogoča pritrjevanje (npr. žebljev) ali graviranje znakov v ustrezne materiale. Ta standard se uporablja tudi za kartuše PAT, ki se prodajajo osebam, mlajšim od 18 let, če država članica zaradi majhnega tveganja kartuš PAT to dovoljuje.
