WARNING The UK as a member of CEN, is obliged to publish EN 471:2003 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the later stages of the development of this E
6、uropean Standard, changes were incorporated which were the subject of objection by the UK. As a consequence the UK voted against approval as a European Standard. The reason for this objection is that during discussion of this standard by BSI Committee PH/3/7, which mirrors the work of CEN Committee,
7、 TC 162/WG7, several UK experts expressed the opinion that a number of the changes may discriminate against a range of materials currently in use resulting in serious implications for manufacturers of garments to this standard.

EN 471:2003+A1:2007 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard provides a solution that enables the major issues to be resolved. The performance of the consp
30、icuous materials to be used in “high visibility clothing“ is specified together with minimum areas and placement of the materials. Conspicuity is enhanced by high contrast between the clothing and the ambient background against which it is seen; and by larger areas of the conspicuous materials speci
31、fied. Three areas of background and combined performance material colours are defined in an appropriate manner for clothing material, all of which will confer conspicuity against most backgrounds found in urban and rural situations in daylight. However users should consider the prevailing ambient ba
32、ckground in which protection is required and select the colour that provides the preferred contrast. Two levels of separate performance retroreflective materials are included. Higher levels of retroreflection provide greater contrast and visibility of warning clothing when seen in headlights during
33、darkness. When greater conspicuity is required the higher level of retroreflecting material should be used. Design requirements illustrating the disposition of retroreflective materials are included within the standard. The ergonomics of the wearer should be considered when selecting the most approp
34、riate configuration of retroreflective materials within the garment. Three classes of warning clothing are specified in terms of the minimum areas of the materials to be incorporated. Whilst the area comprising clothing is obviously dictated by the type of clothing and also the size of the wearer, i
35、t should be noted that class 3 clothing offers greater conspicuity against most urban and rural backgrounds than class 2 garments which in turn are significantly superior to class 1 clothing. Selection and use of high-visibility warning clothing can vary among European countries. It should be based
36、on a risk assessment of the condition in which the warning clothing is to be used. This will involve consideration of the requirements necessary for an observer to understand that a wearer is present. The observer needs both to perceive and to recognise the wearer and then to decide to take appropri
37、ate avoidance action. The wearing of a high-visibility garment does not guarantee that the wearer will be visible under all conditions. Test methods ensure that a minimum level of protection is maintained when the garments are subjected to care procedures. Test methods detailed in this standard are
38、for new materials and not intended for products in use. Attention is drawn to EN 1150, which specifies characteristics and properties for visibility clothing for non- professional use.

EN 471:2003+A1:2007 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for protective clothing capable of signalling the users presence visually, intended to provide conspicuity of the user in hazardous situations under any light conditions by day and under il
40、lumination by vehicle headlights in the dark. Performance requirements are included for colour and retroreflection as well as for the minimum areas and for the disposition of the materials in protective clothing. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the app
