Secure storage units - Classification and methods of test for resistance to fire - Part 1: Data cabinets and diskette inserts

This part of this European Standard specifies requirements for fire resisting data cabinets and diskette inserts.
Two methods of test are specified to determine the ability of fire resisting data cabinets to protect temperature and humidity sensitive contents from the effects of fire: a fire endurance test and a fire shock and impact test. Two levels of fire severity (S 60 and S 120) based upon time of fire exposure; and three protection classes (P, D and DIS) are specified using the maximum temperature increases and humidity values permitted within the storage space of the data cabinet.
Diskette inserts (DI 60 P/DIS and DI 120 P/DIS) are installed in data cabinets of protection class S 60 P or S 120 P, respectively, and subjected to a fire endurance test (see 5.1.2).
Requirements are also specified for test specimens, the technical documentation for the test specimen, correlation of the test specimen with the technical documentation, preparation for type testing and test procedures.
A scheme to classify the fire resisting data cabinets and diskette inserts from the test results is also given (see Table 1).
Cabinets having the same design, protection and construction features (type and thickness of construction and protective materials, rebate geometry, locking, etc.) will only give the same fire protection classification as that of a test specimen if they are of similar internal dimensions. The maximum difference in internal dimensions (height, width and depth of the storage space, measured from wall to wall) to which the test classification could apply is + 15 %. Cabinets having internal dimensions which differ by more than this amount from that of the tested specimen should be submitted to an extra test.
The wall, ceiling and door thicknesses should not be below the specified minimum limit of the type-tested thickness by more than 3 %. ...

Wertbehältnisse - Klassifizierung und Methoden zur Prüfung des Widerstandes gegen Brand - Teil 1: Datensicherungsschränke und Disketteneinsätze

Dieser Teil dieser Europäischen Norm legt Anforderungen an Datensicherungsschränke und Disketteneinsätze zum Schutz gegen Brände fest.
Zwei Prüfverfahren dienen der Ermittlung der Widerstandsfähigkeit von Datensicherungsschränken, temperatur- und feuchtigkeitsempfindliches Füllgut vor Brandeinwirkung zu schützen: eine Feuerwiderstandsprüfung und eine Feuerstoß- und Sturzprüfung. Zwei Stufen der Beflammungsdauer (S 60 und S 120) und drei Güteklassen (P, D und DIS) sind vorgesehen, die unter Berücksichtigung der im Innenraum des Datensicherungsschrankes maximal zulässigen Temperaturerhöhungen und Feuchtigkeitswerte definiert werden.
Disketteneinsätze (DI 60 P/DIS und DI 120 P/DIS) werden in einem Datensicherungsschrank der Güteklasse S 60 P bzw. S 120 P eingebaut und einer Feuerwiderstandsprüfung unterzogen (siehe 5.1.2).
Außerdem sind Anforderungen für die Probekörper, die Technische Dokumentation des Probekörpers, die Übereinstimmung von Probekörper mit der Technischen Dokumentation, die Vorbereitung der Typprüfung sowie die Prüfverfahren definiert.
Ferner wird ein Schema zur Klassifizierung von vor Brandeinwirkung schützenden Datensicherungsschränken und Disketteneinsätzen nach ihrem Prüfergebnis gegeben (siehe Tabelle 1).
Datensicherungsschränke, die über dieselbe Konstruktion, denselben Schutz und Aufbau (Art und Dicke der Konstruktions- und Schutzmaterialien, Anordnung der Falze, Verschlüsse usw.) verfügen, können nur dann in die Güteklasse wie der Probekörper eingestuft werden, wenn sie über ähnliche Innenabmessungen verfügen. Die maximal zulässige Abweichungen bezüglich der Innenabmessungen (von Wand zu Wand gemessene Höhe, Breite und Tiefe des Innenraumes), die für diese Einstufung (Zertifizierung) gilt, beträgt ± 15 %. Schränke, bei denen die Innenabmessungen um einen höheren Wert von denen des Probekörpers abweichen, sollten vor einer Zertifizierung erneut geprüft werden.

1 Scope This part of this European Standard specifies requirements for fire resisting data cabinets and diskette inserts.
Two methods of test are specified to determine the ability of fire resisting data cabinets to protect temperature and humidity sensitive contents from the effects of fire: a fire endurance test and a fire shock and impact test. Two levels of fire severity (S 60 and S 120) based upon time of fire exposure; and three protection classes (P, D and DIS) are specified using the maximum temperature increases and humidity values permitted within the storage space of the data cabinet. Diskette inserts (DI 60 P/DIS and DI 120 P/DIS) are installed in data cabinets of protection class S 60 P or S 120 P, respectively, and subjected to a fire endurance test (see 5.1.2). Requirements are also specified for test specimens, the technical documentation for the test specimen, correlation of the test specimen with the technical documentation, preparation for type testing and test procedures. A scheme to classify the fire resisting data cabinets and diskette inserts from the test results is also given (see Table 1). Cabinets having the same design, protection and construction features (type and thickness of construction and protective materials, rebate geometry, locking, etc.) will only give the same fire protection classification as that of a test specimen if they are of similar internal dimensions. The maximum difference in internal dimensions (height, width and depth of the storage space, measured from wall to wall) to which the test classification could apply is + 15 %. Cabinets having internal dimensions which differ by more than this amount from that of the tested specimen should be submitted to an extra test. The wall, ceiling and door thicknesses should not be below the specified minimum limit of the type-tested thickness by more than 3 %.
Diskette inserts should only be installed in data cabinets having the same design as the series of protection class S 60 P and S 120 P, respectively, in which the insert has been tested in accordance with 5.1.2. Where several inserts are installed, they should be built in one beside the other or one above the other from bottom to top, respectively. The volume and total height of the installed inserts should not exceed 50 % of the total internal volume or 50 % of the internal height, respectively, of the data cabinets into which they are installed. The dimensions of the insert can be adapted by increasing the width and depth to the corresponding dimensions of the data cabinets. A reduction of these dimensions as well as a change of the height is only admitted within the specified tolerance.
The temperature increases during type-tests on data cabinets and diskette inserts will be considered in deciding the permitted diskette insert installations. For a permitted installation, the temperature increase of the intended data cabinet (∆Ta K) should not exceed the temperature increase of the tested data cabinet (∆Tb K) in which the diskette insert has been type-tested by more than the difference between the maximum value for the diskette insert (∆Ti K) and the maximum admissible temperature increase (30 K), i.e: ∆Ta - ∆Tb ≤ 30 K - ∆Ti (See example in Annex B). A description of the installation of the diskette inserts should be given in the technical documentation of the manufacturer.

Where S is the symbol applied to fire resisting data cabinets, DI the symbol for the diskette insert. The numerical values in the protection class are the duration of fire exposure during the type test in minutes; the letters characterise the types of media that can be protected in each class as follows: P Thermally sensitive paper documents, but excluding papers of grades which lose data below 170 °C. D Thermally and humidity sensitive media such as magnetic media and thermally sensitive documents, but excluding media which lose data below 70 °C and a relative air humidity above 85 %. DIS Thermally and humidity sensitive media such as diskettes, but excluding media which lose data below 50 °C and a relative air humidity above 85 %. NOTE P/DIS inserts only provide DIS protection when correctly installed in the appropriate P class data cabinet.
4.2 Data cabinets shall be fitted with a lock. 5 Test specimens, documents and correlation
5.1 Test specimens 5.1.1 Data cabinets Two identical data cabinets shall be available: one for the fire endurance test, the other for the fire shock and impact test. The test specimen for the fire endurance test shall be modified at its base for installing the measuring instrumentation (see 6.3.1 and Figure 2) and may have, but need not have a plinth.
The date(s) on which the test specimens were filled with protection materials shall be given. A statement of the protection class the test specimen shall be tested to shall be given. NOTE 2 In connection with the type test, the testing laboratory should mark three sets of the technical documentation with signature, stamp and date. One set is sent to the applicant. One set is added to the monitoring documentation for certification and quality assurance, and one set is kept in the testing files of the test laboratory. 5.3 Correlation of test specimen and technical documentation
Examine the correlation of the test specimens with the technical documentation before and after commencing the type test. Establish that the dimensions, design, materials and type of construction of the test specimens correspond to the technical documentation (see 5.2). Make a photographic record of the following construction details: the outside of the cabinet, the inside of the cabinet, rabbet edges, seals and plinth. The mass of the lighter test specimen (data cabinets) shall not deviate from the heavier by more than 10 %. For this comparison add the mass of the plinth specified (see 5.1) to the mass of the test specimen supplied for the fire endurance test if that test specimen was supplied with no plinth. 6 Test methods 6.1 Principle The fire endurance of the test specimen is assessed by heating and cooling in a furnace. The performance of the test specimen against fire shock and impact is assessed by a heating/cooling regime combined with a drop test. During these type tests the temperature and, where appropriate, the relative humidity in the interior of the test specimen is measured.
