instructions
5 Safety requirements and/or protective measures
5.1 Mechanical hazards
5.1.1 General
5.1.1.1 Basic requirements
Compactors shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause. In
addition, the machines shall be designed in accordance with the principles of EN ISO 12100:2010 for
relevant but not significant hazards, which are not dealt with by this document (e. g. sharp edges).
It is advisable that a dialogue take place between the manufacturer and the user regarding the
installation and positioning of the machine (see informative Annex B).
Compactors shall be designed and constructed to allow safe access for cleaning. Access points shall be
safeguarded in accordance with EN 953:1997+A1:2009. Other design features (e. g. collection trays)
should be considered to reduce the need for access to clean.
Compactors shall be designed in such a way that mirrors or closed circuit television cameras can be
installed in order to give the operator a good view into the feed hopper or the compaction chamber.
Compactors with closed feed hoppers/openings are exempted from this requirement.
The control station shall be arranged to allow the operator a good view of the compactor, especially of
the conveyor or bin lift and the feed hopper/opening. A good view can be direct and/or with visibility
aids.
Compactors shall be designed and constructed so that the risk of blockages of the material being
processed is reduced to the lowest level.
NOTE Measures for reducing the risk of blockages include e. g.:
— where a series of conveyors is used to transfer materials to the feed hopper/opening then the speed
should increase from one conveyor to the next;
— swan neck conveyors;
— level detection sensors monitoring the feeding and the compacting processes;
— automatic diversion flaps and chutes that divert the continuously fed material elsewhere;
— material levelling devices that act to limit the depth of the material travelling on the conveyor;
— feed hoppers with smooth internal surfaces that include no ledges (on which material might bridge);
— feed hoppers that have a uniform cross section (as opposed to a reducing cross section) for the whole
of their length;
— on compactors fed by bin lifts, ensuring that the internal volume of the compacting chamber and/or
hopper is greater than the volume of the biggest bin;
— on compactors fed by bin lifts where the feed hopper will not take the whole volume of the bin,
ensuring that the bin lift cannot tip the contents of a bin into the feed hopper until the compacting part is fully
retracted;
— retention devices to prevent the compacted material moving backwards into the compaction chamber
(e.g. flaps, non- return safety catches or teeth).
Compactors shall be designed and constructed so that any blockages that do occur can be cleared
without a person having to gain direct access onto, or into, the hazard areas listed in 4.1.3, e. g. by
providing a powered dejamming device (such as a pneumatic ram) above the feed hopper. If this is not
possible, see 7.2.8.
Unintended movement of the compacting parts and any powered vertically operating ancillary
equipment (e.g. powered dejamming or closing device) attached to the compactor shall be prevented by
one of the following:
— a check valve fitted to the hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders to protect against dangerous movement
in the event of a hose or pipe failure in the hydraulic or pneumatic system;
— a self-locking irreversible transmission with mechanical drive;
— a spring-applied brake with motor fitted to the mechanical drive;
— a mechanical restraint device.
Compactors shall be equipped with a lockable power isolator for maintenance. See also 7.2.5.
Maintenance and inspection doors shall be designed as interlocking guards in accordance with 5.1.1.2
and 5.2.4.
5.1.1.2 Safeguards
The design of the compactor shall ensure that wherever possible crushing, shearing, impact, puncture
and drawing-in points are eliminated. Where these hazards cannot be eliminated, safeguarding shall be
applied using one or a combination of the following.
— Fixed guards that are in accordance with EN 953:1997+A1:2009.
— Movable interlocking guards that are in accordance with EN 953:1997+A1:2009 and
EN ISO 14119:2013. The interlocking guards shall be positioned in accordance with
EN ISO 13855:2010 so that opening one of them stops the movement of any dangerous part of
machinery before any part of a person enters the danger zone.
— Sensitive protective equipment (SPE) as defined in EN ISO 12100:2010, 3.28.5, that is in accordance
with the relevant standards: EN ISO 13855:2010, EN

The article discusses the safety requirements outlined in the European Standard EN 16486:2014+A1:2020 for compactors used to compact waste materials or recyclable fractions. The standard applies to compactors that use horizontally moving screws, pendulums, or plates as compacting parts and where the materials move horizontally. It also applies to mechanically or manually fed compactors, including static compactors, transportable compactors, and traversing systems. The scope of the standard includes integral mechanical feed equipment, feed hoppers/openings, pre-conditioning equipment, material flow control equipment, and the interface between the compactor and feed equipment (excluding certain types). However, it does not cover compactors covered by EN 1501, underground compactors (unless they can be used above ground), compactors that use thermal technologies or vacuum, compactors that compact materials vertically, containers for static compactors (except the interface with the compaction unit), bins used to collect materials for the compactor, pre-treatment equipment that is not integral to the machine, vehicles and equipment used for lifting and transporting the compactor or container, equipment used to load materials into the feed hopper/opening, and suction or dust control equipment. The standard also does not apply to hazards related to the materials being processed, such as asbestos, clinical waste, and aerosol containers. It is important to note that the standard is not applicable to compactors manufactured before its publication as an EN.
