Designation: F2266 ? 03 (Reapproved 2015) Standard Speci?cation for Masses Used in Testing Rescue Systems and Components1 This standard is issued under the ?xed designation F2266; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscript epsilon (′) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval. 1. Scope 1.1 This speci?cation de?nes the masses to be used when testing rescue systems and components. 1.2 The masses represent personnel and equipment that may be attached to a rescue system or components. However, the masses do not represent any particular type or kind of rescuer or equipment. 1.2.1 The masses chosen have been used in the past or are in current use in testing of rescue systems and components. Limiting testing to the masses listed in this speci?cation allows meaningful comparisons between past, current, and future test results. 1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.4 The user of this speci?cation shall determine which mass(es) represent(s) the personnel and equipment attached to the system or component under test. 1.5 For the purposes of this speci?cation, mass and weight are synonymous when the object(s) representing the mass(es) are weighed in air anywhere on Earth. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro- priate safety and health practices and determine the applica- bility of regulatory requirements prior to use. 2.
