Respiratory equipment - Open-circuit umbilical supplied compressed gas diving apparatus - Part 2: Free flow apparatus
This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for free flow surface supplied and free flow surface oriented diving apparatus to ensure a minimum level of safe operation of the apparatus. It applies to the following:
a maximum depth of 50 m for apparatus using:
1) air or;
2) oxygen or;
3) oxygen in nitrogen mixtures (Nitrox) or;
4) oxygen in helium mixtures (Heliox) or;
5) oxygen, nitrogen and helium mixtures (Trimix);
water temperatures between 4 °C and 34 °C or outside these temperatures as specified by the manufacturer;
environmental temperatures between -20 °C and 50 °C or outside these temperatures as specified by the manufacturer.
The requirements of this European Standard are intended to take account of the interaction between the wearer, the apparatus, and where possible the environment in which the apparatus is likely to be used.
This European Standard does not cover saturation diving systems, mini bell systems or apparatus used for oxygen decompression only.

Die Anforderungen dieser Europäischen Norm sind dafür vorgesehen, die Interaktion zwischen Gerätträger,
Gerät und, wo möglich, der Umgebung, in der das Gerät wahrscheinlich benutzt werden soll, zu berücksichtigen.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Sättigungstauchsysteme, Taucherglockensysteme und Geräte, die nur
zur Sauerstoffdekompression benutzt werden.
Equipements respiratoires - Appareils de plongée narguilé à gaz comprimé et à circuit ouvert - Partie 2: Appareils à débit continu
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences minimales qui s’appliquent aux appareils de plongée à écoulement libre avec alimentation en surface et aux appareils de plongée à écoulement libre orientés vers la surface, dans le but de garantir un niveau minimal de sécurité en fonctionnement de l’appareil. Elle s’applique :
à une profondeur maximale de 50 m pour les appareils utilisant de l’air, de l’oxygène ou de l’oxygène dans les mélanges à base d’azote ;
à une profondeur maximale de 60 m pour les appareils utilisant de l’oxygène, de l’oxygène et de l’hélium ou des mélanges d’oxygène, d’azote et d’hélium ;
à des températures d’eau comprises entre 4 °C et 34 °C ou en dehors de cette plage de températures comme spécifié par le fabricant.
Les exigences de la présente norme européenne sont conçues pour tenir compte de l’interaction entre l’utilisateur, l’appareil, et, dans la mesure du possible, l’environnement dans lequel l’appareil est susceptible d’être utilisé.
La présente norme européenne ne couvre pas les systèmes de plongée en saturation, ni les systèmes de mini-ceinture, ni les appareils utilisés uniquement pour la décompression à l’oxygène.
