EN 50636-2-100 Figure 1 Young Adult Arm Probe

Conform to the CSA C22.2. Handle is nylon, tip is stainless steel.The adult arm probe conforms to EN 50636-2-100 figure 1. It is used to simulate the adult to test whether the hazardous parts can be touched.

The arm probe(see Figure 1) shall not be able to make contact with the hazardous moving parts when it is inserted into the openings up to the entire length of each arm probe. The articulations of each probe shall be manufactured to enable a rotation of ±90° about the articulation axis. The movements of the joints of each probe shall be free enough to allow easy articulation as the probe is inserted into the opening. Each probe shall be applied with force not exceeding 20 N.

The arm probe shall be twisted and moved in any direction allowed by joints when approaching the hazardous moving parts. If necessary, one or more sections of the machine may be cut away the probe to be configured such that it penetrates as far as possible towards the hazardous moving parts. If a sections is removed this shall not allow the probe to penetrate further than it would have done before the removal of the section.

The test shall be carried out both with and without the debris collector in place. If the removal of the debris collector caused the power to the fan and /or shredding means to be interrupted, the test shall only be done with the debris collector in place.

The arm probe shall not contact the hazardous moving parts. When the test is conducted with the debris collector in place it shall not be possible to push any part of the debris collector into hazardous moving parts.
