29、sFor the purposes of this European Standard the terms and definitions given in EN 132 and the following apply.3.1self-contained, open-circuit compressed air underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA)apparatus which has a portable supply of compressed air carried by the diver, allowing him to breathe und

30、er waterand exhale into the ambient water.The SCUBA, when ready to use, consists of a number of compatible sub-assemblies each of which complies withthe appropriate requirements of this standard. When connected together, the complete SCUBA is designed toenable the wearer to breathe air on demand fro

42、its components are located so that protection isachieved against mechanical damage caused by external influence and that it is possible to perform the requiredpre-dive functional checks.The combination of sub-assemblies shall not adversely affect the safe operation and use of apparatus.In the case o

43、f several interconnected cylinders it shall be ensured that pressure equalisation between openedcylinder valves and/or open reserve valves is not impeded.The SCUBA and sub-assemblies shall not have any projecting parts or corners and edges which may injure thediver.All parts which have to be actuate

44、d by the diver during use shall be accessible and controllable even when wearingprotective gloves (3-finger, 6 mm to 7 mm, padding on either side). They shall be designed such that their settingcannot be altered inadvertently during use.Testing shall be done in accordance with 6.2 to 6.11.5.2 Materi

45、alsThe materials used shall have adequate mechanical strength and feature sufficient resistance to changes causedby the effect of temperature individually and in the assembled, ready-to-use SCUBA.Materials that may come into contact with the wearers skin and/or mouth shall not be known to be likely

46、to causeirritation or any other adverse effects to health.After testing in accordance with 6.2 and 6.11 the SCUBA shall still be fully functional, thus satisfying the specifiedrequirements.Testing shall be done in accordance with 6.2 and 6.11.5.3 Air cylinder(s)The air cylinder(s) shall comply with

47、the appropriate national or European specifications and shall be approved andtested with respect to the rated working pressure.The air cylinder shall be marked with the appropriate neck thread designation according to EN 144-1 where thepreferred versions are M 18 x 1,5 and M 25 x 2.Testing shall be

48、done in accordance with 6.2.5.4 Cylinder valvesCylinder valves shall comply with appropriate national or european specifications and shall be approved and testedfor use at the rated working pressure.The threads shall be as specified in EN 144-1 where the preferred versions are M 18 x 1,5 and M 25 x
