Overview
EN 13035-9:2006/FprA1 is a CEN standard that establishes updated safety requirements specifically for washing installations used in machines and plants for the manufacture, treatment, and processing of flat glass. This type 2 amendment complements the original EN 13035-9:2006 standard by refining hazard identification, safety measures, and verification processes. It ensures that flat glass washing equipment complies with essential safety principles and supports conformity with the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This standard is critical for manufacturers, safety engineers, and process designers to minimize risk and enhance operator safety when handling flat glass washing machines within industrial settings.
Key Topics
Scope and Hazard Management
The standard addresses significant hazards involved in washing installations for flat glass manufacturing, including crushing, shearing, cutting, entanglement, electrical, noise, ergonomic hazards, and risks related to unexpected machine start-up or falling objects.Safety Requirements and Protective Measures
Key safety provisions include:- Enclosures and interlocking guards on moving parts such as brushes, rollers, and conveyors to prevent operator contact
- Implementation of sensitive protective devices (e.g., mechanical bars, opto-electronic beams) to stop conveyor and roller operation if a hand enters danger zones
- Electrical safety compliance with EN 60204-1:2006, operating systems at max 24V with proper IP protection ratings to guard against water exposure
- Noise emission assessments and control measures to protect hearing, including mandatory ear protection information when necessary
- Lockable main switch devices for machine isolation to facilitate safe maintenance and emergencies
- Guidelines for fixed guard attachments to ensure no accidental disassembly or loss of guards
Verification and Testing
The standard specifies detailed methods for visual, functional, and measurement-based verification of safety features. Testing protocols ensure all safety measures perform as intended under operational conditions.Information for Use
Manufacturers must provide comprehensive documentation including:- Noise emission levels at workstations and peak values based on standardized noise-test codes
- Operating instructions for emergency procedures and safe clearing of blockages
- Spare part specifications affecting safety
- Manufacturer identification, machine designation, and production year for traceability and compliance
Noise-Test Code (Annex B)
This annex defines standardized procedures for measuring sound pressure levels and sound power levels, specifying preferred measurement standards (e.g., EN ISO 11204 for washing installations). It emphasizes installation conditions, operating speeds, uncertainty recording, and detailed test report requirements to support accurate noise emission declarations.
Applications
Glass Manufacturing Facilities
Ensures safety of washing installations integrated into flat glass production lines, reducing operator injuries and equipment damage.Safety Compliance for Machinery Manufacturers
Assists manufacturers in designing and certifying washing equipment that meets updated European safety standards and harmonizes with EU directives.Risk Management in Industrial Processes
Provides a framework for risk assessment related to washing machinery hazards and incorporation of protective measures in process plant design.Maintenance and Operational Training
Supports maintenance personnel and operators by specifying safe isolation devices, emergency procedures, and noise protection requirements.
