Furniture - Assessment of surface resistance to wet heat

This European standard specifies a method for the assessment of the resistance to wet heat of all rigid furniture surfaces regardless of materials.
It does not apply to leather and textile surfaces.
The test is intended to be carried out on a part of the finished furniture, but can be carried out on test panels of the same material, finished in an identical manner to the finished product, and of a size sufficient to meet the requirements of the test.
The test should be carried out on unused surfaces.
Annex A (informative) describes a direct light source.

Möbel - Bewertung der Beständigkeit von Oberflächen gegen feuchte Hitze

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Bewertungsverfahren für die Beständigkeit von Oberflächen gegen feuchte
Wärme fest und gilt für starre Möbeloberflächen unabhängig von den verwendeten Werkstoffen.
Sie gilt nicht für Oberflächen aus Leder und Textilien.
Die Prüfung ist zur Durchführung an einem Teil des oberflächenbehandelten Möbelstücks gedacht, kann aber
auch an Prüflingen durchgeführt werden, die aus dem gleichen Werkstoff mit identischer Oberflächenbehandlung
wie das oberflächenbehandelte Produkt und groß genug sind, um den Anforderungen der Prüfung zu
entsprechen.
Die Prüfung sollte auf unbenutzten Oberflächen durchgeführt werden.
Anhang A (informativ) beschreibt eine direkte Lichtquelle.

Meubles - Évaluation de la résistance de la surface à la chaleur humide

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode d’évaluation de la résistance à la chaleur humide de
toutes les surfaces d’ameublement indépendamment des matériaux.
Elle ne s’applique pas aux surfaces en cuir et en textile.
L’essai est destiné à être réalisé sur une partie du meuble fini mais il peut être effectué sur des panneaux
d’essai constitués du même matériau, de finition identique au produit fini et de dimensions suffisantes pour
satisfaire aux spécifications de l’essai.
L’essai doit être conduit sur des surfaces neuves.
L’Annexe A (informative) décrit une source de lumière directe.
