ASTM F1643

Last updated

ASTM F1643 is a Standard Test Methods for Detention Sliding Door Locking Device Assembly. This standard was created by the American Standard for Testing and Materials (ASTM). ASTM International which was funded in 1898, is an international standards developing organization that develops and publishes standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems, and services. This standard was published by ASTM F33 which is a committee specializes about detention and correctional facilities. FM 33 has published 14 standards in this area. The test enables to give information about the performance feature regarding devices in services against assault, smoke, and fire conditions into several organizations including detention and correctional institutions. Several features are not considered such as both installation and maintenance conditions. This test enables to help ensure that detention sliding devices perform against intrusion, avoid that intruders penetrate in unauthorized access and to resist common types of vandalism into an organization.

The main keywords to present this standard are correctional facility; detention facility; detention security; fire test; hardware; impact test; locks; and smoke test.

Medical device Device to be used for medical purposes

A medical device is any device intended to be used for medical purposes.Significant potential for hazards are inherent when using a device for medical purposes and thus medical devices must be proved safe and effective with reasonable assurance before regulating governments allow marketing of the device in their country. As a general rule, as the associated risk of the device increases the amount of testing required to establish safety and efficacy also increases. Further, as associated risk increases the potential benefit to the patient must also increase.

Fire test

A fire test is a means of determining whether fire protection products meet minimum performance criteria as set out in a building code or other applicable legislation. Successful tests in laboratories holding national accreditation for testing and certification result in the issuance of a certification listing. The listing is public domain, whereas the test report itself is proprietary information belonging to the test sponsor.

ASTM C1270 is a Standard Practice for Detection Sensitivity Mapping of In-Plant Walk-Through Metal Detectors. This standard was created by the American Standard for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and published in December 1997. ASTM International which was founded in 1898, is an international standards developing organization that develops and publishes standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems, and services. This standard deals with a procedure to establish the weakest detection path through the portal aperture and the worst-case orthogonal orientation of metallic test objects. This practice is considered to develop the assistance about operators of walk-through metal detectors with meeting the metal detection performance requirements of the responsible regulatory authority.

ASTM C1349 is a Standard Specification for Architectural Flat Glass Clad Polycarbonate. This specification was created by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Founded in 1898, ASTM International is an international standards developing organization that develops and publishes standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems, and services. This specification deals with the quality requirements for cut sizes of glass clad polycarbonate (GCP).
