Helmets for canoeing and white water sports

This European Standard specifies requirements for helmets for canoeing and white water sports for use in waters of classes 1 to 4 as classified by Clause 4. The levels of protection recognise that most fatalities in canoeing and white water sports result from drowning after concussion and not from brain damage.
This European Standard is not intended to apply to helmets for use in extreme white water situations such as those where the jumping of high waterfalls is undertaken, because the need for impact absorption for such a helmet, and the area of the head to be protected, are greater than those for most canoeing and white water sports. The standard applies to helmets with and without holes in the shell.
NOTE   This European Standard does not provide performance requirements for visors, chin-guards or face-guards.

Helme für den Kanu- und Wildwassersport

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an Helme für den Kanu- und Wildwassersport in Flüssen der Klassen 1 bis 4 nach der Klassifizierung in Abschnitt 4 fest. Der Grad des Schutzes läßt erkennen, dass die meisten Unfälle mit tödlichem Ausgang beim Kanu- und Wildwassersport durch Ertrinken nach dem Aufprall erfolgen und nicht durch Gehirnschäden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Helme zum Gebrauch in solch extremen Situationen auf Wildwasserflüssen, in denen auch hohe Wasserfälle überwunden werden. Die erforderliche Stoßdämpfung und der zu schützende Kopfbereich sind bei solchen Helmen größer als bei jenen für die meisten Kanu  und Wildwassersportarten. Diese Norm gilt für Helme mit und ohne Öffnungen in der Helmschale.
ANMERKUNG   Diese Europäische Norm enthält keine Anforderungen an die Funktionstauglichkeit von Visieren, Kinn- und Gesichtsschutz.

Casques utilisés dans la pratique du canoë-kayak et des sports en eau vive

La présente Norme européenne énonce les exigences pour les casques utilisés pour la pratique du canoë-kayak et des sports en eau vive, sur des cours d'eau de classes 1 à 4 selon la classification de l'Article 4. Les différents degrés de protection tiennent compte du fait que la majorité des décès en canoë-kayak et sports d'eau vive est causée par la noyade après commotion et non par des blessures à la tête.
La présente Norme européenne n'est pas destinée aux casques utilisés dans des conditions extrêmes telles que le franchissement de chutes d'eau importantes qui réclament des capacités d'absorption des chocs et de protection de certaines zones de la tête bien supérieures à celles nécessaires au canoë-kayak et sports en eau vive. Elle s'applique aux casques à calotte pleine comme aux casques à calotte munie de trous d'aération.
NOTE   La présente Norme européenne ne fournit aucune exigence de performance relative aux visières, mentonnières ou protections du visage.

Čelade za kanuiste in športe na divjih vodah

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za čelade za kanuiste in športe na divjih vodah za uporabo v vodah razredov od 1 do 4, kot je določeno v točki 4. Ravni zaščite kažejo, da največ smrtnih primerov med kanuisti in pri športih na divjih vodah nastane zaradi utopitve po trčenju in ne zaradi poškodbe možganov. Ta evropski standard ni namenjen za čelade za uporabo v ekstremnih situacijah na divjih vodah, kot je na primer skakanje z visokih slapov, ker sta potreba po absorpciji udarcev in področje glave, ki ga je treba zaščititi, pri takšni čeladi večja kot pri čeladah za večino kanuistov in športov na divjih vodah. Standard se uporablja za čelade z luknjami in brez lukenj na lupini.
