Definitions
For the purpses of this European Standard the definitions given in prEN 12519 apply together
with those given hereafter :
3.1 twist : Spiral distortion in the plane of a door leaf.
3.2 bow: Curvature in the direction of the height of a door leaf.
3.3 cup : Curature in the direction of the width of a door leaf.
Requirements Requirements are based either on occurrence of damage on the test specimen and if relevant on the compliance of performance.
4.1 Damage There shall be no visible cracking or other defects to the finish (delamination, loose surface covering etc.) and no degradation of materials, joints and fixing of hardware is allowed.
4.2 Compliance with performance (door sets) Prior to and after the climatic test the specimen shall achieve a certain class in the operation of its hardware and if relevant in air pemeability. The climatic test is satisfactory if the test specimen performances vary within specified limits. Operating forces A. door set lested acording to prEN 12046-2 shall achieve at least the class of prEN 12217 reached before the test between diferent climates.
4.2.2 Air permeability A door set tested according to prEN 1026 shall achieve at least the class of prEN 12217 reached before the test between different climates. Classification
5.1 General The dassification is based on the amplitude of the deformation.
5.2 Aplcation to door leave The door leave supplied without frame or as part of a door sel shall be classilied according to table 1. These deformations shall not be exceeded. This applies to a specimen tested in successive uniform climates as well as to specimen tested between two diferent climates,
