EN 17092-1 Protective Clothing for Motorcycle Riders - Part 1: Test Methods

Tests will be carried out on complete garments and samples taken from them. If it is not possible to perform any required testing using a real test sample garment, the test may be performed using a representative sample of the same material and construction as the entire garment.

In the case of garments with pockets or other provisions for removable impact protectors, the manufacturer shall collect for testing samples of all impact protectors suitable for the garment, as listed in the fact sheet for users.

Prior to testing, garments and samples should be cleaned according to manufacturer's instructions. Where only minor surface cleaning is recommended, such as wiping with a damp sponge, it is not necessary to clean the garments prior to testing. Test specimens should be conditioned for at least 24 hours in an atmosphere of (23±2) °C and (50±5) % relative humidity prior to testing.

The test shall be performed in the conditioning environment or initiated within 30 minutes of removal of the test specimens from this environment.

It is recommended that the tests be performed in the above conditioning atmosphere; if not possible, the test atmosphere should not exceed (23 ± 5) °C and a relative humidity of 15% to 75%.
