3.11 windshield component of the barbecue used to minimise undesirable effect of the wind during the use of the barbecue 4 Requirements 4.1 General requirements When testing as described in 5.2, the coatings of the barbecue accessories shall not liberate any solid substance nor ignite. Also any solid substance coming from other parts of the barbecue shall not ignite nor fall into the usable area.
NOTE For surfaces of and coatings on parts of the barbecue coming into contact with the food to be barbecued, cooking grid, rotisserie spit, rotisserie meat forks and gravy trays, see Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 (see Bibliography). Differing legal requirements may exist in non-EU-countries. It shall be possible to assemble and dismantle suitcase or portable barbecues as described in the instructions for use either without the aid of a tool or using the tool that is supplied. Components shall be fixed in such a way that they cannot fall off during transportation. When assembling, operating and manipulating the barbecue, accessible edges and corners shall be free from burr. Rough surfaces, sharp edges and corners, which can cause injury, are not allowed.
In case of doubt to determine whether rough surface, sharp edges or corners can cause an injury a test according to EN 71-1:2009, 8.11 is mandatory. All accessible parts of the barbecue components made of metal sheet or tubes of thickness less than 0,7 mm (– 0,02 mm) coating excluded shall be as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4.

These requirements also apply when testing the barbecue as described in 5.2. After testing in accordance with Clause 5, a barbecue fails if it does not meet the following requirements: a) any deformation of a component that compromises the use and safety of the barbecue; b) any component showing cracks and/or fractures; NOTE A permanent barbecue may show cracks and/or fractures which do not influence the safety. c) any component falls off; d) the temperature and safety requirements mentioned in the test descriptions are not met. 4.2 Requirements for parts 4.2.1 Cooking grid The clear distance between the bars of the cooking grid shall not exceed 20 mm before, during and after testing according to 5.2 and 5.6. This requirement relates to the usable area of the grid, which shall be at least 80 % of the horizontal area of the fuel compartment, vertically projected. If the cooking grid has the function of a grate, the clear distance between the bars of the grate and also, in the case of vertical fuel compartment, of those between the grate and the edges of the fuel container shall not exceed 20 mm before, during and after testing according to 5.2 and 5.6.

2) Measure at these same points on both sides the thickness of the coating Cext and Cint. 3) Calculate by subtraction the thickness of the uncoated steel sheet in each. T = Tt – (Cext + Cint) 4) Calculate the average from them. Table 1 — Minimum thickness of steel sheet for fuel compartments Grid size diameter or longest side measurement Thickness ≤ 400 mm > 400 mm 0,7 mm 0,8 mm For fuel compartments with a grid size diameter or longest side measurement ≤ 400 mm, a thickness (coating excluded) between 0,5 mm and 0,7 mm is acceptable, provided they are glass or porcelain enamelled on both sides and withstand the tests according to: a) 5.2.2 one time and 5.2.3 two times consecutively; and b) 5.7. Fuel compartments made of cast metal require a minimum thickness coating excluded of 2,5 mm. Fuel compartments made of materials other than steel sheet or cast material (excluding permanent barbecues) shall withstand the tests according to: a) 5.2.2 one time and 5.2.3 two times consecutively; and b) 5.7. 4.2.3.2 Openings If the fuel compartment after assembly has openings, these shall meet the following requirements when tested as described in 5.2 and 5.3. The number of openings in the flat base of the fuel compartment shall not exceed four and shall be dimensioned so that a sphere of 3 mm in diameter will not fall through them, their area shall not exceed 50 mm2. Other openings, other than in the flat base, if circular should have a diameter not exceeding 8 mm, or, if a different shape, their area shall not exceed 50 mm2. With larger openings the barbecue shall be equipped with an ash catcher or the barbecue shall be designed so that it is impossible for any embers or fuel to fall out or roll off when tested as described in 5.2 and 5.3. 4.2.3.3 Depth of the fuel compartment The minimum depth of the fuel compartment shall be as indicated in Table 2. The minimum depth shall be available over 80 % of the usable area of the fuel compartment. SIST EN 1860-1:2013
