Food processing machinery - Basic concepts - Part 2: Hygiene requirements
This document specifies common hygiene requirements for machinery used in preparing and processing food for human and, where relevant, animal consumption to eliminate or minimise the risk of contagion, infection, illness or injury arising from this food. It identifies the hazards which are relevant to the use of such food processing machinery and describes design methods and information for use for the elimination or reduction of these risks.
This document does not deal with the hygiene related risks to personnel arising from the use of the machine.
This document applies to food processing machines. Examples of such groups of food processing machinery are given in the informative Annex B.
NOTE Separate hygiene requirements are contained in other EU Directives (see Bibliography).
In addition, the principles contained in this document can be applied to other machinery and equipment used to process food where similar risks apply.
Examples of hygiene risks and acceptable solutions are given in the informative Annex A.
This document is not applicable to machines manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

Machines pour les produits alimentaires - Notions fondamentales - Partie 2 : Prescriptions relatives à l'hygiène
Le présent document établit les prescriptions d'hygiène communes aux machines utilisées pour la préparation et le
traitement d'aliments destinés à la consommation humaine et, le cas échéant, à la consommation animale afin
d'éliminer ou de minimiser le risque de contagion, d'infection, de maladie ou de lésion provenant de cet aliment.
Elle identifie les phénomènes dangereux qui sont propres à l'utilisation de telles machines et elle décrit les méthodes
de conception et les informations pour l'utilisation visant à éliminer ou à réduire ces risques.
Le présent document ne traite pas les risques hygiéniques concernant le personnel, survenant pendant l'utilisation
de la machine.
Le présent document s'applique aux machines pour produits alimentaires dont des exemples sont donnés dans
l’Annexe informative B.
NOTE D'autres exigences d'hygiène sont données dans d'autres Directives UE (voir la bibliographie).
Les principes définis dans le présent document peuvent également être appliqués à d'autres machines et à d'autres
équipements utilisés pour la transformation d'aliments lorsque des risques similaires s'y rencontrent.
Des exemples de risques hygiéniques et de solutions acceptables sont donnés dans l'Annexe informative A.
Le présent document ne s 'applique pas aux machines fabriquées avant la date de publication du présent document
