This European Standard defines the terms and specifies the requirements, means of categorization, test methods, minimum labelling requirements and instructions for use, for ignition devices (except ignition devices for pyrotechnic articles for vehicles) of the following generic types:<\/p>\n
igniters;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
components for pyrotechnic trains;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
pyrotechnic cords and fuses;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
delay fuses;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
fuzes.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nNOTE Safety fuses are subject to Directive 93\/15\/EEC and therefore not considered in this European Standard.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
This European Standard does not apply for articles containing pyrotechnic compositions that include any of the following substances:<\/p>\n
\n
- \n
arsenic or arsenic compounds;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
polychlorobenzenes;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
mercury compounds;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
white phosphorus;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
picrates or picric acid.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This European Standard does not apply to pyrotechnic articles that contain detonative explosives other than black powder and\/or flash composition, except igniters if these detonative explosives:<\/p>\n
\n
- \n
can be easily extracted from the pyrotechnic article, or<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
can initiate secondary explosives, or<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
can function in a detonative manner, although the article is not designed to detonate and the article belongs to the category P2.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
