19、Kingdom. 3 EN 361 :2002 (E) 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements, test methods, marking, information supplied by the manufacturer and packaging for full body harnesses. Other types of body support, specified in other European Standards, e. g. EN 358, EN 813 or EN 1497, may be in

20、corporated into the full body harness. Fall arrest systems are specified in EN 363. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the public

21、ations are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references, the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including am

30、 the design and ergonomics are specified in 4.1 of EN 363:2002. 4.2 Materials and construction Webbing and sewing threads of a full body harness shall be made from virgin filament or multifilament synthetic fibres suitable for their intended use. The breaking tenacity of the synthetic fibre shall be

31、 known to be at least 0,6 N/tex. Threads used for sewing shall be physically compatible with the webbing, and the quality shall be compatible to that of the webbing. They shall, however, be of a contrasting shade or colour in order to facilitate visual inspection. A full body harness shall comprise

32、straps or similar elements which are placed in the pelvic area and on the shoulders, e. g. as shown in Figure 1. The full body harness shall fit the wearer. Means of adjustment may be provided. Straps shall not migrate from position and shall not loosen by themselves. The width of primary straps sha

33、ll be at least 40 mm and of secondary straps at least 20 mm. It shall be visually confirmed during the static strength test specified in 5.1 that those straps which support the torso dummy or exert pressure on the torso dummy are primary straps. The fall arrest attachment element(s) may be placed so

34、 as to lie, during the use of the full body harness, above the centre of gravity, in front of the chest and/or at the back and/or at both shoulders of the wearer. The full body harness may be incorporated within a garment. It shall be possible to carry out a visual inspection of the whole full body

35、harness, even if the full body harness is incorporated within a garment. All securing buckles (i. e. buckles other than those used primarily for adjustment of fit) shall be designed in such a way that they can only be assembled in a correct manner or, if they are capable of being assembled in more t

36、han one way, that each method of assembly shall conform to the strength and performance requirements. Metallic fittings shall conform to the corrosion protection requirements specified in 4.4 of EN 362:1992. 4.3 Static strength When tested at each attachment element as described in 5.1.4.2 of EN 364
