Abstract

This document specifies additional specific safety requirements and test methods for Class B floating leisure articles for use on and in the water regardless whether the buoyancy is achieved by inflation or inherent buoyant material. This document is applicable for Class B floating leisure articles as specified in ISO 25649-1:20xx, Table 1. Class B devices provide a buoyant structure with one or more body openings into which the user is positioned partly immersed. NOTE 1 Typical products forming Class B (see Annex B): -floating rafts with interior body holding system ("swim seats") mostly in circular or square shape, fantasy shape for playing purposes; -floating fantasy shaped structures with one or more openings to host a child's body, with or with-out body holding system; -floating with slits or openings to put legs through any shape; -floating rings with interior seat segments inside the circular body opening. NOTE 2 Typical places for application: -pools; -protected areas of lakes, ponds; -protected area sea shore (no offshore winds, no currents).
