Building hardware - Corrosion resistance - Requirements and test methods

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the corrosion resistance of building hardware for doors, windows, shutters and curtain walling.
This European Standard provides a method of classification of corrosion resistance of building hardware based on performance in a neutral salt spray test (EN ISO 9227).
This European Standard specifies requirements for both coated and uncoated surfaces and five grades of corrosion resistance being laid down in accordance with the different conditions of use grades 1 to 5. A grade 0 is also included for which no requirements have been specified. Requirements for levels of corrosion resistance which are higher than those laid down for grade 5 have not been included in this European Standard and are subject to agreement where required.
This European Standard also applies to the metal fasteners required for fixing building hardware if specified.
Screws and fastenings which are sold with a hardware product which conforms to this European Standard should also conform to this European Standard.
NOTE 1   The term "grade" used in this European Standard corresponds to the term "class" which is used in ISO standards.
NOTE 2   There is seldom a direct relationship between resistance to the action of salt spray and resistance to corrosion in other media, because several factors influencing the progress of corrosion, such as the formation of protective films, vary greatly with the conditions encountered. Therefore, the test results should not be regarded as a direct guide to the corrosion resistance of the tested materials in all environments where these materials may be used. Also, the performance of different materials during the test should not be taken as a direct guide to the corrosion resistance of these materials in service.
The method described in this European Standard gives a means of checking that the comparative quality of a material, with or without corrosion protection, is maintained.
In addition, for quality contr

Schlösser und Baubeschläge - Korrosionsbeständigkeit - Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an die Korrosionsbeständigkeit von Schlössern und Baubeschlägen für Türen, Tore, Fenster, Fensterläden und Vorhangfassaden fest.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält eine Klassifizierung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit von Baubeschlägen basierend auf dem Leistungsverhalten in der neutralen Salzsprühnebelprüfung (EN ISO 9227).
Diese Norm legt die Anforderungen sowohl für beschichtete als auch für unbeschichtete Oberflächen fest. Ent¬sprechend den unterschiedlichen Nutzungsbedingungen gibt es fünf Klassen der Korrosionsbeständigkeit (Klasse 1 bis 5). Darüber hinaus gibt es eine Klasse 0, für die keine Anforderungen festgelegt sind. An¬forderungen, die über die Klasse 5 hinausgehen, sind in dieser Norm nicht festgelegt. Sie müssen bei Bedarf vereinbart werden.
Die Anforderungen dieser Norm gelten darüber hinaus für die metallischen Befestigungselemente, die für die Montage von Schlössern und Baubeschlägen erforderlich sind, falls spezifiziert.
Schrauben und Befestigungselemente, die mit dem Beschlagprodukt zusammen verkauft werden, das dieser Europäischen Norm entspricht, sollten ebenfalls dieser Europäischen Norm entsprechen.
ANMERKUNG 1   Der Begriff Klasse ("grade" in der englischen Fassung dieser Norm) in dieser Europäischen Norm stimmt mit dem Begriff Klasse überein, wie er in ISO-Normen angewendet wird.
ANMERKUNG 2   Es gibt selten einen direkten Zusammenhang zwischen dem Korrosionswiderstand beim Salzsprühnebel und der Korrosionsbeständigkeit in anderen Medien, weil verschiedene Faktoren den Fortschritt der Korrosion beeinflussen, wie z.  B. die Bildung von Schutzschichten, variieren diese aufgrund der anzutreffenden Bedingungen. Darum sollten die Prüfergebnisse nicht als direkte Leitlinie für den Korrosionsschutz der geprüften Werkstoffe in allen Umgebungen, in denen die Werkstoffe zur Anwendung kommen, angesehen werden.

Quincaillerie pour le bâtiment - Résistance a la corrosion - Exigences et méthodes d'essai

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences de résistance a la corrosion de la quincaillerie pour portes, fenetres, fermetures et façades rideaux.
La présente Norme européenne propose une méthode de classification de la résistance a la corrosion de la quincaillerie de bâtiment reposant sur la performance a l’essai au brouillard salin neutre (EN ISO 9227).
La présente Norme européenne spécifie des exigences a la fois pour les surfaces revetues et pour les surfaces non revetues, cinq grades de résistance a la corrosion étant fixés conformément aux diverses conditions d'utilisation (grades de 1 a 5). Elle inclut également un grade 0 pour lequel aucune exigence n'est spécifiée. Les exigences relatives a des niveaux de résistance a la corrosion plus élevés que ceux fixés pour le grade 5 n'ont pas été ajoutés a cette norme et doivent faire l'objet d'un accord lorsqu'ils sont exigés.
La présente Norme européenne s'applique aussi aux éléments de fixation métalliques, exigés, si nécessaire, pour monter la quincaillerie pour le bâtiment.
Les vis et éléments de fixation vendus avec un article de quincaillerie conforme a la présente Norme européenne doivent également etre conformes a cette norme.
NOTE 1   Le terme de «grade» employé dans la présente Norme européenne correspond au terme de «classe» utilisé dans les normes ISO.
NOTE 2   Il y a rarement une relation directe entre la résistance a l’action du brouillard salin et la résistance a la corrosion dans d’autres milieux car plusieurs facteurs influent sur les progres de la corrosion, tels que la formation de films protecteurs, qui varient grandement en fonction des conditions rencontrées. Il convient donc de ne pas considérer les résultats d’essai comme un guide direct de la résistance a la corrosion des matériaux soumis a l’essai dans tous les environnements ou ces matériaux peuvent etre utilisés.

EN 1670:2007 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 1670:2007) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors, windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2007. This document supersedes EN 1670:1998. CEN/TC 33 have considered previous comments by CEN/TC 262, thereby replacing this European Standard with a new one based solely on the performance testing of building hardware. The current version has been revised to incorporate clarification of the scope, definitions, requirements and acceptance criteria throughout Annexes A and B. The current version has also been revised to incorporate new developments in technology for corrosion resistance. The new technology combines specific layers and methods on the surface so that thickness or type of layer are no longer relevant. This European Standard is one of a series of European Standards dedicated to building hardware products. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.



EN 1670:2007 (E) 4 Introduction Corrosion protection alone is not specified in any of the six essential requirements of the Construction Products Directive but is an implicit requirement for durability. This European Standard provides for the corrosion resistance of all building hardware, classified according to application. Wherever reference is made to classes they are considered to be technical classes and not classes according to Article 3(2) of the Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC). The performance tests incorporated in this European Standard are considered to be reproducible and as such will provide a consistent and objective assessment of the performance of these products throughout CEN Member States. A full contribution to the preparation of this European Standard has been made by the European manufacturers’ organisation "ARGE". NOTE This European Standard does not include testing for corrosion by sulfur dioxide which is covered by EN ISO 6988.
