Check of the tear resistance
To be conducted with the Bettsometer at the following points (B.M.A.A. approved patent number
GB2270768 Clive of bed Sails)
Th
e test sequence is to be inferred from the operating instruction the Bettosometer.
• In both the top and undersail where the A-lines connect, push a needle-thick hole and check
• the tear resistance.
• Th
e limit value of the measurement is determined at 500g, and a tear width of fewer than 5mm.
Th e determined values / modifi cations are to be noted in the inspection log!
Porositycheck of the canopy
At all following measuring points the air porosity has to be more than at least 20 sec. (by Kretsch-
mer).
At smaller air permeability values the paraglider must be returned to the manufacturer.
Measuring points: Th
e porosity measurements by the Kretschmer measuring method (please
consider operating instruction) are to be conducted at the following points on the canopy check on
both under and upper sail.
• Center cell approx. 20-30cm back from leading edge
• 3rd Cell off center both to the left /right approx. 20-30cm back from leading edge
• 10th Cell off center both to the left /right approx. 20-30 cam back from leading edge
Th
e determined values / modifi cations are to be noted in the inspection log!
Connection parts
Check of the webbing and maillons
• are there abrasions, buckling, tears, strong signs of wear obvious?
• Is all the stitching fast and fi rm?
• Is the accelerator running free and intact?
• Are brake toggle attachments still fi rmly sewn on?
• Are the maillons corrosion free, are the sleeves of the gates free moving on the thread?
Measure under a load of 5 kg. Th
e determined values are to be compared with the specifi cations
from the EAPR-Technical data sheet. Allowable variations are to be inferred from the manufactu-
rer directions. If the webbing or parts thereof are defective, spare parts are to be ordered from the
manufacturer and replace the defective parts with original parts. Th
e determined values/modifi ca-
tion are to be note in the inspection log!
