Ventilation for buildings - Terminals - Performance testing of louvres subject to simulated sand

This European Standard specifies a method for measuring the sand rejection efficiency of sand trap louvres subject to simulated sand and with inlet air flow through the louvre under test. The Standard considers a 1000 mm ´ 1000 mm section of sand trap louvre, or the nearest possible blade increment, for evaluation purposes.
The purpose of the tests incorporated in this European Standard is as follows:
a) Sand Rejection Effectiveness
To establish the sand rejection effectiveness when subjected to various air flow rates through the assembly.
b) Entry loss coefficient/Pressure requirements
To establish the air pressure loss through the sand trap louvre at various air flow rates and by calculation Discharge Loss Coefficient.

Lüftung von Gebäuden - Endgeräte - Leistungsprüfung von Schutzblenden unter Einwirkung von simuliertem Sand

Diese Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Messung des Sandrückhaltegrades von Sandfangblenden unter Einwirkung von simuliertem Sand und bei einströmendem Luftstrom durch die zu prüfende Haube fest. Für die Bewertung wird in der Norm ein Abschnitt von 1 000 mm ´ 1 000 mm einer Sandfangblende oder die nächstgrößere Lamellengröße betrachtet.
Der Zweck der Prüfungen dieser Europäischen Norm besteht in
a) Sandrückhaltegrad
Festlegung des Sandrückhaltegrades, wenn unterschiedliche Luftvolumenströme durch die Baueinheit strömen.
b) Anforderungen an den Eintrittsverlustkoeffizienten bzw. Druckverlust
   Festlegung des Luftdruckverlustes durch die Sandfangblende bei unterschiedlichen Luftvolumenströmen und
   durch Berechnung des Austrittsverlustkoeffizienten.

Ventilation des bâtiments - Bouches d'air - Performances des grilles soumises a une simulation de sable

La présente Norme européenne prescrit une méthode de mesure de l'efficacité du rejet de sable des grilles équipées de piege a sable soumises a une simulation de sable et avec passage de l'air d'entrée par la grille soumise a essai. Pour les besoins de l'évaluation, la norme examine une section de 1 000 mm x 1 000 mm d'une grille équipée de piege a sable ou l'incrément de lame le plus proche possible.
Les essais mentionnés dans la présente Norme européenne ont les objectifs suivants :
a) efficacité du rejet de sable
Etablir l'efficacité du rejet de sable lors du passage de divers débits d'air dans l'ensemble.
b) Exigence en matiere de pression/coefficient d'entrée
Etablir la perte de pression d'air par la grille équipée de piege a sable pour divers débits d'air, en calculant le coefficient de décharge.
