Blinds and shutters - Resistance to repeated operations (mechanical endurance) - Methods of testing
This European Standard specifies the tests to be carried out to determine the mechanical endurance of products comprising :
- internal blinds,
- external blinds,
- shutters,
according to a defined number of extension/retraction cycles of the curtain and tilting of the laths (for blinds and shutters with tilting laths).
It applies to complete products e.g. those equipped with their hardware and operating mechanisms in normal operating conditions.
Manual override mechanisms for use in case of mechanical breakdown are excluded when they form part of motorized blinds and shutters.
Abschlüsse und Läden - Widerstand gegen wiederholte Bedienungen (mechanische Lebensdauer) - Prüfverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt die auszuführenden Prüfungen zur Bestimmung der mechanischen Lebensdauer folgender Produkte fest:
3 Abschlüsse innen;
3 Markisen;
3 Abschlüsse außen.
Hierfür wird eine festgelegte Anzahl von Zyklen durchgeführt, in denen der Behang eingefahren bzw. ausgefahren wird, und das Wenden der Lamellen (bei Abschlüssen mit wendbaren Lamellen) untersucht wird.
Diese Norm gilt für vollständige Produkte, z. B. Produkte, die mit Beschlägen und Bedienungsmechanismen unter normalen Bedienungsbedingungen ausgestattet sind.
Manuelle Notfallmechanismen für den Fall des mechanischen Versagens werden, sofern sie Teil von angetriebenen Abschlüssen sind, ausgeschlossen.
Fermetures pour baies équipées de fenetres, stores intérieurs et stores extérieurs - Résistance aux manoeuvres répétées (endurance mécanique) - Méthodes d'essai
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les essais a réaliser pour déterminer l'endurance mécanique des produits composant :
- les stores intérieurs ;
- les stores extérieurs ;
- les fermetures ;
apres un nombre défini de cycles de repliement/déploiement du tablier et d'orientation des lames (dans le cas des fermetures et des stores a lames orientables).
Elle s'applique aux produits complets c'est-a-dire munis de leur quincaillerie et de leur dispositif de manoeuvre dans les conditions normales de manoeuvre.
Les organes de manoeuvre manuelle de dépannage, lorsqu'ils équipent les fermetures et stores motorisés, ne sont pas visés.

This ismounted on the test rig according to the conditions described in 4.2 of EN 13527:1999.Curtains which can be projected (roller shutter, venetian shutter, etc.) are in the projected position with theirprojection mechanisms locked or blocked.If the product cannot be extended or retracted when in the projected position, the manufacturer shall provide awarning.If fitted, non automatic locks or bolts to secure the curtain are left unlocked or left in place when the locking /unlocking is automatic.4.3Test equipment4.3.1GeneralAll parts of the test rig and operating mechanisms shall ensure that the curtain and the slats are operated asthey would be in reality. They complement the operating mechanisms for test purpose, e g hydraulic,pneumatic or electric motors and linear pistons, or all other mechanisms which are compatible with:— the operating speeds and rest periods ;— the mass of the curtain to put into motion ;— the forces of friction incurred ;— the operating force ;— the inertia effect if it occurs in the case of linear operation by the operating mechanism ;— the duration of the test.The equipment for operation may be an automation reproducing human movements.SIST EN 14201:2004
