The marking shall be legible and durable.

33、 The durability of the marking shall be verified. Wide rungs/steps and platforms shall be designed to be horizontal when the product is used on a flat floor. Wide rungs, rungs, steps and platforms made of metal or plastics shall have a textured surface on the working face to reduce slipping. The con

34、tact surface of the coverings shall adhere firmly to the rungs or steps. 4.2 Surface finishes This requirement shall be according EN 131-2. The coating of wooden parts shall be transparent and permeable to water vapour. This does not apply to platform components manufactured from plywood materials.

35、4.3 Materials 4.3.1 General The requirements on materials shall be according to EN 131-2 apply unless otherwise stated. 4.3.2 Wood Wood used for the platform should be of durable quality and be suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The coating shall be transparent and permeable to water vapour.

36、BS EN 131-7:2013EN 131-7:2013 (E) 7 Coatings applied to platform components manufactured from plywood materials shall be permeable to water but may be opaque. The surface of the platform shall be slip resistant. 4.4 Stabiliser If the design makes stabilisers necessary to fulfil the stability test re

37、quirements, they shall be supplied with the ladder. It shall be clear that the product is meant to be used with stabilisers. Specific safety instruction shall be visible on the ladder and may be repeated on the stabilisers. 4.5 Ballast If the design makes ballasts necessary to fulfil the stability t

38、est requirements, they shall be supplied with the ladder. It shall be clear that the product is meant to be used with a ballast. Specific safety instruction shall be visible on the ladder and may be repeated on the ballast. 5 Dimensional requirements 5.1 Ascending legs 5.1.1 Ascending legs with angl

Hand

40、rails can be added to this product. 5.1.2 Ascending legs with angle 45 0,5 m2This test shall be carried out in addition to the previous test described in 6.4.1.1. If the platform area is more than 0,5 m2, put 2 loads of each 2 600 N on two plates of max. 100 mm 100 mm distributed equally in the midd

41、le of the platform (see Figure 13). Requirement: no disassembly, cracking or rupture shall occur. NOTE This load is applied for the foreseeable misuse of the platform by two people. Figure 13 Platform test for platform area 0,5 m26.4.2 Complete product test The product is placed in the use position.

42、 The stability devices/ ballast shall be fitted in position. Place the test load F = 3 500 Nin the middle of the ascending leg uniformly distributed on the surface of the rung/wide rung/step for a period of 1 min (see Figure 14).

The position of the handrail under the pr

44、eload is the starting point for the measurement of bending. Apply the test load of 300 N horizontally for one minute distributed over a length of 100 mm and a depth equal to the principal guardrail in the most unfavourable position and direction, and then measure the deflection. Requirement: maximum

45、 deflection under load 35 mm. Apply the test load of 1 250N vertically for one minute distributed over a length of 100 mm and a width equal to the principal guardrail in the most unfavourable position, and then pull the load off. Requirement: no disassembly, cracking or rupture shall occur. 6.5.2 Te

46、st on middle rail (intermediate guardrail and the middle rail of the gate) Apply the test load of 1 250 N vertically for 1 min, than put the load off. Requirement: no disassembly, cracking or rupture shall occur. 6.6 Side handrail testing This test shall be according to EN 131-2. 6.7 Stability test

47、6.7.1 Platform 0,5 m2Place the mobile platform ladder in position of use, complete with any ballast and/or stabilisers, with any brake device activated on an even and solid ground. The castors shall be placed in the most unfavourable position. Apply a test load of 750 N distributed centred on a rigi

48、d steel plate of max. 200 mm 200 mm located on the centre of the platform. BS EN 131-7:2013EN 131-7:2013 (E) 15 Apply a suitable system to prevent slippage of the ladder towards the direction of the horizontal force. This system shall not change the resistance to overturning of the mobile platform l

49、adder and shall have a height above the ground not greater than 10 mm. Apply gradually to the level of the platform a horizontal pulling force F = 300 N to the edge of the platform in the most unfavourable position and direction (see Figures 15 and 16). For platform heights greater than 2,5 m, the pulling force is increased to F = 450 N when the product is intended for outdoor use or where it might be affected by wind. The test is passed if the mobile platform ladder does not overturn. Key F load Figure 15 Stability test
