Machines for mechanical processing of minerals and similar solid materials - Safety - Part 6: Specific requirements for mobile machinery

Publication date:   Mar 14, 2024

Scope

This document, together with EN 1009-1:2020+prA1:2023, specifies safety requirements and verification for the design and construction of mobile machinery for crushing, screening, feeding, conveying minerals (cement, lime, gypsum. sand, gravel, industrial minerals, metalliferous ore, hard and soft rock aggregates, coal) and by-products (slag and ashes, production and demolition waste) in construction and industry.
In addition, this document specifies the type of information on safe working practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer.
The requirements of this document are complementary to the common requirements formulated in EN 1009-1:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-2:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-3:2020+prA1:2023,
EN 1009-4:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-5:2020+prA1:2023. This part does not repeat the requirements from EN 1009-1:2020+prA1:2023, but adds or replaces them.
When requirements of this document are different from those which are stated in
EN 1009-1:2020+A1:2023, EN 1009-2:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-3:2020+prA1:2023,
EN 1009-4:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-5:2020+prA1:2023 the requirements of this document takes precedence over the requirements of EN 1009-1:2020 for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this document.
This document, together with EN 1009-1:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-2:2020+prA1:2023,
EN 1009-3:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-4:2020+prA1:2023, EN 1009-5:2020+prA1:2023 deals with all the identified significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to mobile machinery for cleaning, recycling, mud treatment when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole lifetime of the machine (see Annex A).
This document does not apply to machines with a seated or standing operator while driving.
This document does not cover:
- design relating to road traffic regulations (e.g. lighting, dimensions, speed limit plate);
- hazards arising from the use of the machines in potentially explosive atmospheres as well as from processing of explosive materials and risks related to electromagnetic compatibility;
- hazards arising from the use of the laser sensors.
NOTE For travelling on public roads, national traffic regulations apply (e.g. braking, steering, lighting, towing, etc.) until harmonized requirements are available.
This document does not apply to mobile machines, which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
