4 Pyrotechnic composition No limits are given for the net explosive content (NEC)1) of Category 4 articles in this standard. 5 Construction (type test and batch test) When tested in accordance with 6.1 and 6.2 of EN 16261-3:2012, the article dimensions and gross mass shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s declaration (including tolerances). The orientation of mortars shall be verified by inspection according to 6.3 of EN 16261-3:2012, during type test. When the orientation of mortars in combinations is not visible, the maximum firing angle shall be displayed on the label and verified by visual inspection according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 6 Means of ignition 6.1 Identification (type test and batch test) The means of ignition shall be clearly visible or shall be indicated by labelling or instructions where applicable. Conformity to this requirement shall be verified by visual examination according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 6.2 Protection (type test and batch test) Where appropriate, the means of ignition shall be protected to avoid accidental ignition of the fireworks. Conformity to this requirement shall be verified by visual examination according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 7 Performance 7.1 Properties to be checked before functioning tests 7.1.1 Loose pyrotechnic composition after mechanical conditioning (type test) When tested in accordance with 6.8 of EN 16261-3:2012, the loose pyrotechnic composition found outside the article after mechanical conditioning shall be weighed. The mass of the whole loose material shall comply with manufacturer's specifications (if any) and the mass of loose pyrotechnic composition shall not exceed
3 % of the NEC and not more than 1 g for each item tested. If the pyrotechnic composition cannot be separated from the loose material, the same limits shall apply to the whole loose material.
1) The NEC has an influence (directly or indirectly) on the safety distances. For Category 4 fireworks, it is agreed that no fixed minimum safety distances are defined, contrary to Category 1, 2 and 3 fireworks. The safe use of Category 4 fireworks is one of the major responsibilities of the person with specialist knowledge who should determine the minimum safety distance by using the information given in prEN 16261-4:2011, Clause 4.

EN 16261-2:2013 (E) 7 7.1.2 Integrity (type test and batch test) 7.1.2.1 General requirements There shall be no holes, splits, dents or bulges either in the body of the firework case or in the end closures, except those technically necessary for the correct functioning of the firework. If the end closures are separate components, they shall be in place. There shall be no pyrotechnic leakage of the article to be tested when it is received for testing. Conformity to these requirements shall be verified by visual examination according to 6.7 of
EN 16261-3:2012. 7.1.2.2 Specific requirements For combinations: each individual element shall be securely attached to the other elements or to the framework. Attachment by the transmitting fuse(s) alone shall be allowed if it is sufficient to keep the elements joined together during normal handling. Conformity to above requirements shall be checked by visual examination according to 6.7 of EN 16261-3:2012. 7.2 Properties to be checked during functioning tests 7.2.1 Principal effects (type test and batch test) When tested in accordance with 6.10 of EN 16261-3:2012, the principal effects of each firework shall conform to those specified by the manufacturer or importer as described in EN 16261-1. 7.2.2 Functioning (type test and batch test) For type test only, functioning test in accordance with 6.10 of EN 16261-3:2012, shall be performed in as received conditions and, after mechanical and thermal conditions in accordance with 6.8 and 6.9 of
EN 16261-3:2012. For type test and batch test, when tested in accordance with 6.10 of EN 16261-3:2012, the article shall function as intended and shall not function in an erratic and unforeseeable manner. 7.2.3 Stability during functioning (type test and batch test) When used according to the instructions for use, the article shall remain in its initial position and maintain its integrity whilst functioning, if applicable. Conformity to these requirements shall be checked by the method described in 6.10 of EN 16261-3:2012. 7.2.4
Performance parameters (type test and batch test) The mandatory parameters listed in Annex A shall be measured and recorded according to 6.4, 6.5, 6.10.3 and 6.10.4 of EN 16261-3:2012 (if applicable). During type tests, all test results shall be within a tolerance of ± 20 % of the measured average, except as otherwise justified by the manufacturers. The measured average value shall be displayed on the label. This value may be rounded. Tolerances regarding performa
