Aperçu de conformité

Cet aperçu n’est actuellement disponible qu’en anglais.

Champ d’application

This standard applies to all types of fire safety sign products used to convey fire safety information to the public, including ordinary, phosphorescent, retroreflective, self-luminous, porcelain enamel, combined material, and internally illuminated sign boards. It is mandatory for manufacturers producing fire safety signs for the Chinese market. However, it explicitly excludes sign luminaire products used in fire emergency lighting and evacuation indicating systems.

Exigences techniques

This standard specifies comprehensive technical requirements for fire safety sign products, covering appearance, dimensions, and structural integrity. It mandates strict chromaticity and photometric requirements for safety colors, ensuring visibility and contrast under various lighting conditions. For specialized signs, such as phosphorescent and self-luminous types, the standard sets minimum limits for emergency luminous time and surface brightness. Manufacturers must ensure that all materials meet strict performance thresholds for environmental adaptability and safety. Furthermore, the standard outlines rigorous durability criteria, including weather resistance, corrosion resistance, water resistance, impact resistance, and flame retardancy. For internally illuminated signs, it details electrical safety requirements, including grounding provisions, dust and water ingress protection, and insulation resistance. Compliance with these multifaceted technical parameters is essential for product certification.

Méthodes d’essai

The standard outlines a series of rigorous evaluation procedures to verify compliance. Key tests include photometric and colorimetric measurements to assess luminance and retroreflection coefficients under specific light sources. Environmental durability is evaluated through salt spray tests, water immersion, temperature cycling, and vibration tests. Additionally, specialized tests such as the glow wire test for flammability and radioactivity measurements for self-luminous signs are mandated to ensure overall product safety and longevity.

Questions fréquentes

What products are regulated under GB 13495.2-2026?

This standard applies to all types of fire safety sign products used to convey fire safety information to the public. However, it explicitly excludes sign luminaire products used in fire emergency lighting and evacuation indicating systems.

Are there any significant updates from the previous version of GB 13495.2?

This standard is a mandatory national standard converted from the industry standard XF 480-2023. It introduces comprehensive technical requirements for various product categories, including self-luminous, phosphorescent, and internally illuminated signs, along with specific environmental adaptability and radioactivity testing protocols.

How does GB 13495.2-2026 differ from ISO or IEC standards?

The standard references several international methodologies, such as using IEC 60050-845:2020 for lighting terminology. However, it establishes specific Chinese compliance criteria for safety signs, including unique luminance contrast and retroreflection coefficient limits tailored to domestic fire safety requirements.
