Specification for protective clothing for use where there is a risk of entanglement with moving parts
This standard specifies the properties of protective clothing that minimize the risk of its entanglement or drawing-in by moving parts when the wearer is working at or near hazardous moving machines or devices. This standard does not include protective clothing against injuries by special moving machine parts for which specific standards exist, e.g. protective clothing for users of chainsaws.
Festlegungen für Schutzkleidungen für Bereiche, in denen ein Risiko des Verfangens in beweglichen Teilen besteht
Dieses Dokument legt in Ergänzung zu den allgemeinen Anforderungen in EN ISO 13688 Ausführungsanforderungen an Schutzkleidungsstücke fest, die das Risiko ihres Verfangens oder Einziehens durch bewegte Teile, wenn der Träger an oder in der Nähe von Maschinen oder Geräten mit gefährlichen Bewegungen arbeitet, minimieren.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Schutzkleidung gegen Verletzungen durch spezielle bewegte Maschinenteile, für die es spezifische Normen gibt, z. B. Schutzkleidung für Nutzer von Kettensägen (EN ISO 11393).
Spécification pour l’habillement de protection destiné à être utilisé en cas de risque de happement par des pièces de machines en mouvement
Le présent document spécifie les exigences de conception des vêtements de protection qui réduisent au minimum les risques de happement ou d'entraînement par des pièces en mouvement lorsque le porteur travaille sur ou à proximité des machines ou appareils en mouvement dangereux. Ces exigences sont complémentaires des exigences générales énoncées dans l'EN ISO 13688.
Le présent document exclut l’habillement de protection contre les blessures occasionnées par des parties particulières de machines en mouvement pour lequel il existe des normes spécifiques, par exemple l’habillement de protection pour les utilisateurs de scies à chaîne (EN ISO 11393)
Opredelitev zahtev za varovalno oblačilo, kjer je nevarnost, da se oblačilo zaplete ob gibajoče dele
Ta standard določa lastnosti varovalnih oblačil, pri katerih je nevarnost, da se oblačilo zaplete ob premikajoče se dele oziroma da se vanje zatakne, ko uporabnik dela na nevarnih premičnih strojih ali napravah oziroma v njihovi bližini, kar najmanjša. Ta standard ne vključuje varovalnih oblačil za zaščito pred poškodbami s posebnimi premikajočimi se deli strojev, za katere obstajajo posebni standardi, npr. varovalna oblačila za uporabnike motornih žag.

Overview
EN 510:2019 (CEN) - Specification for protective clothing for use where there is a risk of entanglement with moving parts - defines design and marking requirements for garments intended to minimize the risk of entanglement or drawing‑in by hazardous moving machines. The standard is complementary to the general requirements of EN ISO 13688 and applies where machine safeguarding cannot fully eliminate entanglement hazards. It does not cover special machine‑specific protective clothing (for example chainsaw garments covered by other standards).
Key Topics and Requirements
- Design principles: garments must provide a covering of other clothing, a close fit and a smooth outer surface to reduce snagging.
- Garment types: permitted configurations include combinations such as waist jacket + bib‑and‑brace overall, waist jacket + sleeveless coverall, or a coverall with sleeves.
- Fastenings: no exposed loose ends; fastening elements must be concealed and folds created by fastenings must lie on the inside. Fastening functionality is verified after cleaning by manual open/close cycles (per EN ISO 13688 procedures).
- Cuffs and hems: no turn‑ups on cuffs or trouser lower hems to prevent loose fabric.
- Pockets: no external pockets. Internal pockets above the waist must only be accessible from inside; lower internal pockets with external openings must be closable.
- Adjustability: waist, cuffs and trouser bottoms must be adjustable to ensure a close fit; braces on bib overalls must be sewn at the back and adjustable with ends lying inside the bib.
- Dimensional change and sizing: dimensional change after cleaning and general size designation follow EN ISO 13688.
- Marking and information: garments must carry the ISO 7000‑2411 pictogram (protection against moving parts) and the manufacturer must supply warnings about the requirement for close fit and correct use of two‑piece ensembles.
- Normative context: clause structure, testing and conformity references are linked to EN ISO 13688; Annex ZA maps the standard to essential requirements of EU Regulation 2016/425 (PPE).
Applications and Users
- Intended for workplaces where personnel work at or near hazardous moving machinery and where engineering safeguards alone are insufficient.
- Primary users: PPE manufacturers, product designers, safety engineers, procurement/specification teams, conformity assessment bodies and occupational safety managers.
- Typical sectors: manufacturing, maintenance, assembly, material handling, and any industrial environment with rotating or moving machine parts where entanglement risk exists.
Related Standards
- EN ISO 13688:2013 - Protective clothing: general requirements (normative reference for EN 510).
- EU Regulation 2016/425 - Personal Protective Equipment (see Annex ZA for mapping).
