Bungee Run PIPA Testing

Non-Compliant Bungee Run Example

Non-compliant Bungee run

• The side walls do not extend 1.5m x 1.7m high down the side
• The side walls and middle wall are only 85cm high; they need to be 90cm high
• Trough Depth no more than 15% of the ajasent panel
• Wall heights are at least: – Rear wall 1.8m tall – First 1.5m of side walls from back wall are 1.7m – Remaining side walls are 0.9m
• The device has the minimum wall thickness of: – 0.6m on the back wall – 0.45m on the side walls. Each lane is a maximum width of 900mm.
• The device contains a user zone of 1.2m, a safety zone of 1.2m, and a bungee cord zone, which allows the maximum length of the shock cord at full extension.
• Minimum of 4 on each long side of the inflatable. For a 2-lane bungee run, there must also be 1 anchor point on the access/egress side, and 2 on the rear. For a 3-lane bungee run, this number increases to 2 anchor points on the access/egress side and 3 on the rear.
• Manufacturers’ markings clearly show the correct user heights. Minimum user height equals 1.2m.
• The manufacturer’s confirmation the connectors can withstand a force of 2400N and meet EN362. Connectors have a two-stage locking mechanism.
• A visual check of the ancillary equipment indicates they appear safe without signs of safety concern which may cause injury to a user.
• The diameter of the bungee shock cord meets the requirements within the standard. 12.5mm x 3.3m max length
• 2 stage locking system on connections
