Appliances, solid fuels and firelighters for barbecuing - Part 3 : Firelighters for igniting solid fuels for use in barbecue appliances - Requirements and test methods
This European standard specifies the safety, performance, packaging and marking requirements including the test methods for firelighters used to light solid fuels in barbecue and grill appliances. The standard covers firelighters supplied as either solid, liquid, thickened liquid or gel formulations. However the use of highly flammable liquids (except in stabilised formulations) is specifically excluded from the scope of this standard as their use as barbecue firelighters is regarded as highly dangerous.
Geräte, feste Brennstoffe und Anzündhilfen zum Grillen - Teil 3: Anzündhilfen für Grill-Holzkohle und Grillkohlebriketts - Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren
In dieser Europäischen Norm werden Anforderungen an Sicherheit, Leistung, Verpackung und Kennzeichnung sowie Prüfverfahren für Anzündhilfen festgelegt, die zum Anzünden von Festbrennstoffen in Grillgeräten verwendet werden. In dieser Norm werden Anzündhilfen erfasst, die entweder in fester, flüssiger, dickflüssiger oder Gel-Form geliefert werden. Im Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm wird der Einsatz leicht entzündlicher Flüssigkeiten (ausgenommen in stabilisierten Rezepturen) jedoch ausdrücklich ausgeschlossen, da sie beim Grillanzünden als besonders gefährlich eingeschätzt werden.
Appareils, combustibles solides et allume-barbecue pour la cuisson au barbecue - Partie 3: Allume-feu pour l'allumage des combustibles solides dans les appareils de cuisson au barbecue - Exigences et méthodes d'essai
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences en matiere de sécurité, performance, emballage et marquage, ainsi que les méthodes d'essai, relatives aux allume-feu servant a allumer les combustibles solides utilisés pour barbecues et grils. La norme traite des allume-feu solides, liquides, pâteux ou en gel. Cependant, l'utilisation de liquides tres inflammables (sauf pour des formulations stabilisées) est spécifiquement exclue du domaine d'application de cette norme, car leur utilisation comme allume-feu pour barbecues est considérée comme extremement dangereuse.
