Playground equipment and surfacing - Part 5: Additional specific safety requirements and test methods for carousels
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1176-5 standard is focused primarily on children's playground carousels. It provides further safety standards that must be satisfied in order to guarantee the installation and operation of carousels safely. Motor-driven carousels, fairground carousels, and revolving climbing drums are not included in the scope of this standard, which solely applies to carousels designed for permanent installation.
The major goal of this standard is to guarantee the security of kids utilizing carousels by laying down specific requirements for their design and construction. Additionally, it offers standards for evaluating the security of carousels, such as those for impact resistance, stability, and durability. To lower the danger of accidents or injuries, it is crucial that carousel manufacturers, installers, and operators abide by this guideline.
