External blinds - Performance requirements including safety
This European Standard specifies the performance requirements which external blinds shall fulfil when fitted to a building. It deals also with the significant hazards for construction, transport, installation, operation and maintenance of the external blinds (see list of significant machine hazards in annex B).
It applies to all external blinds as well as similar products whatever their design and nature of the materials used, as follows and defined in EN 12216:
- folding arm awning, trellis arm awning, pivot arm awning, slide arm awning, vertical roller awning, marquisolette, façade awning, skylight awning, conservatory awning, Dutch awning, insect screen awning;
- solar screen.
The wind resistance of fixed or semi-fixed products is not covered, e.g. Dutch awnings, fixed or
mobile and solar screen. They are not exempt from wind resistance requirements although no test methods have been established at the present time.
These products may be operated manually, with or without compensating springs
or by means of electric motors (power operated products).
This document is not applicable to external blinds which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document.
This European Standard specifies the requirements for external blinds, the levels of performances and where applicable, the associated classes.
It is completed by test standards as well as by the standards referring to specific performance requirements.
Markisen - Leistungs- und Sicherheitsanforderungen
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Leistungsanforderungen fest, die an einem Gebäude befestigte Markisen erfüllen müssen.
Die Norm behandelt auch signifikante Gefährdungen für Konstruktion, Transport, Einbau, Bedienung und Wartung der Markisen (siehe Liste der signifikanten Gefährdungen in Anhang B).
Die Norm gilt wie folgt für alle Markisen und ähnliche Produkte, unabhängig von deren Konstruktion und der Art der verwendeten Werkstoffe und wie in EN 12216 definiert:
- Gelenkarmmarkisen, Kastenmarkisen, Scherenarmmarkisen, Fallarmmarkisen, Senkrechtmarkisen, Markiso-letten, Fassadenmarkisen, Dachflächenfenstermarkisen, Wintergartenmarkisen, Korbmarkisen, Insektenschutz;
- Sonnenblenden.
Der Windwiderstand von befestigten oder verschiebbaren Produkten wird hier nicht abgedeckt, z. B. Korbmarkisen, befestigt oder verschiebbar und Sonnenschutz. Sie sind nicht von Anforderungen gegen Windwiderstand ausgenommen, obwohl es z. Z. keine Prüfverfahren dafür gibt.
Diese Produkte können manuell bedient werden, mit oder ohne Ausgleichfedern oder mit Elektromotoren (kraftbetätigte Produkte).
Das Dokument gilt nicht für Markisen, die vor dem Ausgabedatum dieses Dokumentes hergestellt wurden.
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen für Markisen, das Leistungsniveau und, wo geeignet, die zugeordneten Klassen fest.
Diese Norm wird ergänzt sowohl durch Prüfnormen als auch durch Normen für besondere Leistungsanforderungen.
Stores extérieurs - Exigences de performance, y compris la sécurité
La présente Nome européenne spécifie les exigences que doivent remplir les stores extérieurs équipant les bâtiments. Elle traite également des risques significatifs liés aux machines relatifs aux opérations de fabrication, transport, installation, utilisation et de maintenance des stores (voir la liste des phénomènes dangereux significatifs en Annexe B).
Elle s'applique à tous les stores extérieurs et produits similaires suivants, quelle que soit leur conception et la nature des matériaux utilisés, tels que définis dans l'EN 12216 :
- store banne, store à projection par pantographe, store à projection à l'italienne, store de façade, store vertical guidé, store de véranda ou de verrière, store extérieur pour fenêtre de toit, store corbeille, moustiquaire ;
- brise-soleil.
La présente norme ne traite pas de la résistance au vent des produits fixes ou semi-fixes, comme par exemple les stores corbeilles, fixes ou mobiles, ou les brise-soleil. Ces produits ne sont pas exemptés d'exigences relatives à la résistance au vent, mais il n'existe actuellement aucune méthode d'essai.
Ces produits peuvent être man�uvrés manuellement, avec ou sans ressorts de compensation, ou au moyen de moteurs électriques (produits motorisés).
Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux stores extérieurs fabriqués avant sa date de publication.
La présente Nome européenne spécifie les exigences relatives aux stores extérieurs, les niveaux de performances et, s'il y a lieu, les classes associées.
Elle est complétée par des normes d'essai et par des normes faisant référence à des exigences de performance spécifiques.
