Ergonomic of the thermal environment - Methods for the assessment of human responses to contact with surfaces - Part 3 : cold surfaces

ISO 13732-3:2005 provides methods for the assessment of the risk of cold injury and other adverse effects when a cold surface is touched by bare-hand/finger skin. It provides ergonomics data for establishing temperature limit values for cold solid surfaces. The values established can be used in the development of special standards, where surface temperature limit values are required. Its data are applicable to all fields where cold solid surfaces cause a risk of acute effects: pain, numbness and frostbite, and are not limited to the hands but can be applied in general to the healthy human skin of male and female adults.

Ergonomics of the thermal environment - Methods for the assesment of human responses to contact with surfaces - Part 3 : cold surfaces

Le présent document décrit les méthodes permettant d'évaluer le risque de lésion ainsi que d'autres effets indésirables induits par le froid au cours du contact d'une main ou d'un doigt nus avec une surface froide. Il fournit des données ergonomiques permettant d'établir les valeurs limites de température pour les surfaces solides froides. Les valeurs établies peuvent être utilisées au cours de l'élaboration de normes spécifiques lorsque les valeurs limites pour la température de surface sont requises.
