Overview
EN 13781:2012 is the CEN (European) standard that sets requirements and test methods for protective helmets for drivers and passengers of snowmobiles and bobsleighs. Approved December 2011, it supersedes EN 13781:2001 and defines construction, performance, testing and marking rules for helmets intended to reduce head injury risk in winter sport applications. The standard also references additional requirements for eye protectors and face shields in EN 13178.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and purpose: Performance and test methods for snowmobile and bobsleigh helmets (drivers and passengers).
- Construction: Helmets must consist of a shell, impact-absorbing lining and a retention system; smooth external surfaces and no sharp inward edges.
- Protected area: Shell coverage defined relative to reference planes and headform geometry (see standard for figures AA′ / CDEF).
- Retention system: Chin strap secured under the jaw; strap width minimum and load criteria apply. Device opening must require deliberate action.
- Specified: chin strap ≥ 20 mm under a load of (150 ± 5) N (per clause 4.4.2).
- Materials & comfort: Requirements for protective and comfort padding, ventilation, and attachment of integrated components.
- Field of vision: Helmets must meet vision/peripheral requirements (test method EN 13087-6 referenced).
- Energy absorption & impact testing: Dynamic impact absorption tests using specified headforms (EN 960) and instrumentation (ISO 6487).
- Conditioning: Tests include solvent, ambient, low temperature and UV conditioning before performance tests.
- Optional items: Conspicuity marking (geometry, colorimetric and photometric tests), noise performance, and compatibility with accessories (communication, hearing protectors EN 352-1).
- Marking & instructions: Manufacturer labeling and user instructions required; relationship to EU PPE Directive included (Annex ZA).
Applications and Who Uses It
- Helmet manufacturers and designers - to design and certify snowmobile and bobsleigh helmets to EU market requirements.
- Test laboratories and certification bodies - to perform impact absorption, retention and conditioning tests.
- Procurement agents and safety officers - to specify compliant helmets for sports teams, rental fleets, rescue services and winter resorts.
- Regulators and conformity assessors - to assess compliance with EU PPE requirements and national adoption through CEN members.
