o Atlantest <br />TESTING REPORT <br />DATE: May 121h 2014 <br />SUBJECT: Waste carts <br />PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION: IPL 60204 <br />TEST: SLOPE STABILITY (ANSI Z245.30 APPENDIX B) <br />TEST DESCRIPTION: This test checks the static stability of an empty and loaded cart on a <br />defined slope (5 degrees). <br />MINIMUM PERFORMANCE STANDARD: ANSI Z245.30 requires that the cart must stand, <br />without tipping or moving, in three different orientations on a defined slope. ANSI Z245.60 <br />establishes dimensional requirements for the cart. <br />TEST PROCEDURE (Meets the requirements of ANSI Z245.30): <br />l . Prepare a ramp with a slope of 5 degrees. The ramp must be of sufficient size that a cart <br />can be moved onto the cart with no portion of the cart overhanging the edges of the ramp. <br />2. There is to be no wind. <br />3. Move an empty cart onto the ramp and orient the cart with the front of the cart facing up <br />the ramp. Note any tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the front of the cart is <br />facing sideways on the ramp. Note any tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the <br />front of the cart is facing down the ramp. Note any tipping or movement. <br />4. Repeat step two with the cart loaded to the standard loading as specified in the ANSI <br />standard. The loading material to occupy at least 70% of the capacity of the cart. <br />TEST RESULTS: <br />Orientation _.....------------- ........................Result <br />Empty Front facing upward <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) <br />Stable <br />Front facing downward <br />Stable <br />Filled (350 Ibs load) Front facing upward Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) Stable <br />Front facing downward Stable <br />SUMMARY: The carts passed the ANSI Z245.30 and Z245.60 standards since non -movement <br />in four orientations is met. <br />Benoit Talbot B Ing. <br />Atlantest <br />1580 Principal Avenue <br />St- alachie, QC GOR 3 0 <br />
