The requirement

39、s set out in this standard were chosen to ensure compliance with these considerations. When floating leisure articles provide buoyancy in several com-ponents, then requirements apply to all components. Floating leisure articles of class C shall provide residual buoyancy if one air chamber fails. Thi

40、s residual buoyancy shall maintain the safety of the device even if its function is lost. The following safety requirements are therefore related to: design; sizing; materials; strength; performance; information. Towables of all classes shall be designed in a way that the rider when in the intended

41、position(s) can always at least partially be seen by the observer for communication purposes by and with the observer. In addition to this document (EN 15649-5), all requirements of EN 15649-1 and EN 15649-2 apply also for class C devices. EN 15649-1 and EN 15649-2 are applicable as general parts. I

42、n individual cases, due to the unpredictability, variations and indeterminability of existing and future products, a corresponding choice shall be made by the test house. 4.2 Test Conditions If not otherwise stated, all tests shall be carried out at an air temperature of (20 3) C. 4.3 Design 4.3.1 G

43、eneral Design and shape of towables have constituted a certain number of constant types like the above mentioned. The entire product group of towable is however subject of permanent change in terms of shape and function. For that reason, the space per person requirements shall be applied for in a wa

44、y to satisfy safety and per-BS EN 15649-5:2009EN 15649-5:2009 (E) 10 formance if these parameters depend on distinct body positions for which an available area has to be provided. This applies in particular if child use is included. 4.3.2 Sizing, admissible number of users and maximum load capacity

45、4.3.2.1 Sizing Towables shall be sized according to their admissible number of passengers. The size shall be communicated to the user by applying safety information symbol “number of the users, adults/children“ and “users body weight range to kg“ specified in EN 15649-2 on the packaging and on the p

46、roduct. 4.3.2.2 Test method Visual inspection, application of seat template. 4.3.3 C1 devices, space per person (passive user, including children) 4.3.3.1 C1 tubes or other near-ring shaped devices 4.3.3.1.1 Requirements C1 devices, tubes, etc. shall provide a closed cockpit with side walls (inflata

47、ble ring shaped tubes) entirely around the passenger if child use is included. The minimum available area shall allow a six year old child to sit inside the device. This requirement is deemed to be met if the seat template according to EN 15649-1:2009, A.1.2 fits in to the available area. 4.3.3.1.2

48、Test method Apply seat template as specified in EN 15649-1:2009, A.1. Check whether this template can be placed into the interior sitting area without the need to bend or fold it. 4.3.3.2 C1 bikes, bananas, etc. (user sitting in row on the product) 4.3.3.2.1 Requirements C1 devices providing the ava

49、ilable seat area in row shall have a seat length of 60 cm per person. If the device implies sitting in line of more than one user, the sitting space for each user shall have at least a length of: child = 50 cm if the thighs follow the seat surface. adult = 70 cm if the thighs follow the seat surface. 4.3.3.2.2 Test method Apply seat template as specified in EN 15649-1:2009, A.1. Check whether this template can be placed
