ISO/TC 94/SC 6/WG 2 - Test methods

This document specifies the reference test methods for determining the spherical, cylindrical, and prismatic refractive power properties of unmounted and mounted plano lenses (non-corrective lenses) for eye and face protectors. This document does not apply to any eye and face protection product requirement standards for which other test methods are specified. Other test methods can be used provided they have been shown to be equivalent and include uncertainties of measurement no greater than those required by the reference method.

This document specifies the reference test methods for determining the physical optical properties of personal eye and face protectors. This document does not apply to any eye and face protection products for which the requirements standard(s) specifies other test methods. Other test methods can be used provided they have been shown to be equivalent and include uncertainties of measurement no greater than those required of the reference method.

This document specifies the dimensions and tolerances of the headforms used for the testing of eye and face protectors. Additional information is given for: — anthropometric measurement methods; — anthropometric data for head and face dimensions; — human test panels.

This document specifies the reference test methods for determining the physical and mechanical properties of eye and face protectors. This document does not apply to any eye and face protection products for which the requirements standard(s) specifies other test methods. Other test methods can be used if shown to be equivalent and include uncertainties of measurement no greater than those required of the reference method.

ISO 12311:2012 specifies reference test methods for determining the properties of sunglasses given in ISO 12312 (all parts). It is applicable to all sunglasses and related eyewear. Other test methods may be used if shown to be equivalent.
