What is ISO 4210-10 about?
ISO 4210 is a series of international standards on electrically power-assisted cycles that discusses the safety requirements of bicycles. ISO 4210-10 is the 10th part of a series of documents on EPAC. ISO 4210-10 specifies safety and performance requirements for the design, marking, assembly, and testing of two-wheeled electrical power-assisted cycles (hereafter EPACs), fully-assembled EPACs and subassemblies, and provides guidelines for information supplied by the manufacturers (i.e. instructions on the use and care of such EPACs).
ISO 4210-10 applies to two-wheeled EPACs that have a maximum saddle height of 635 mm or more and are intended for private and commercial use with exception of EPACs intended for hire from unattended stations.
ISO 4210-10 is intended to cover all common significant hazards, hazardous situations and events listed in 5.3 of EPACs, when used as intended or under conditions of misuse that are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer.
ISO 4210-10 specifies requirements and test methods for engine power management systems, electrical circuits including the charger for the assessment of the design and assembly of EPACs and sub-assemblies for systems having a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) maximum voltage up to 60 V d.c. including tolerances.
Who is ISO 4210-10 for?
ISO 4210-10 on electrically power-assisted cycles is relevant to:
- Manufacturer of EPAC
Why should you use ISO 4210-10?
EPAC technologies for performance, electrical control, battery management and battery charging are currently developing rapidly in a competitive market. It is, therefore, necessary to standardize the safety of these technologies for EPAC.
ISO 4210-10 provide the best guidance on the safety function for the control system of EPACs, Electrical requirements, Mechanical requirements, Manufacturer's instructions of EPAC.
With ISO 4210-10 you can reduce significant hazards of EPACs, on-the-job accidents and injuries and maximize productivity. Limiting risks can build consumer trust and confidence in EPAC. ISO 4210-10 allow an easy and clear understanding of requirements for different types of EPAC.
