Safety of machinery - Cableway installations designed for the transport of material and specially designated persons - General safety requirements

This Type C standard document applies to fixed cableways operating as single-cable or bi-cable aerial ropeways operating on a single-track or dual-track for the transport
-   of goods to supply goods to and dispose of waste from mountain huts and shelters and
-   of specially designated persons.
This document does not apply to:
-   cableways primarily designed, constructed or operated mainly for the transport of persons and subject to Regulation (EU) 2016/424;
-   portable cableways;
-   lifts;
-   funicular railways;
-   fixed and portable equipment used exclusively for leisure and pleasure purposes and not for the transport of persons;
-   water ski lifts;
-   agricultural and forestry installations;
-   rope crane installations and crane installations;
-   mining installations or other installations set up and used for industrial purposes;
-   drilling equipment.
This document deals with the significant hazards arising from the construction and operation of the aforementioned cableways and measures to eliminate or reduce these hazards, provided that these cableways are used in accordance with their intended purpose and that the remaining residual risk has been anticipated and accepted by the manufacturer. A full list of all risks considered under EN ISO 12100:2010 is shown at Annex A.
The requirements under this document do not apply to equipment and systems manufactured or placed on the market before the date that this document is published.
In the event that there are changes to the existing cableways, these changes must be assessed in terms of their impact on safety in accordance with EN ISO 12100:2010. If this assessment shows that the intended changes do not constitute a significant change pursuant to the Machinery Directive, the requirements under this document must in all cases be fulfilled by the assemblies/components concerned.
In the following sections, for reasons of simplification, the term cableway is used on its own to cover the types of equipment covered by this standard.
This document does not cover:
-   hazards caused by noise;
-   hazards caused by vibration;
-   hazards caused by explosion;
-   hazards caused by electromagnetic influences (EMC).
NOTE   Directive 2014/30/EU regarding electromagnetic compatibility may be used for machinery or components in accordance with this standard. This standard is not intended as a means of proving compliance with the basic health and safety requirements of the aforementioned directive or the aforementioned hazards.

—   ortsveränderliche Seilbahnen;
—   Aufzüge;
—   Standseilbahnen;
—   ortsfeste und verfahrbare Ausrüstung, die ausschließlich Freizeit- und Vergnügungszwecken und nicht der Personenbeförderung dient;
—   Wasserskiliftanlagen;
—   land- und forstwirtschaftliche Anlagen;
—   Seilkran- und Krananlagen;
—   bergbauliche Anlagen oder andere zu industriellen Zwecken aufgestellte und genutzte Anlagen;
—   Bohranlagen.
Dieses Dokument behandelt die signifikanten Gefährdungen, die beim Bau und Betrieb von den zuvor genannten Seilbahnen entstehen, und Maßnahmen zur Beseitigung dieser Gefährdungen oder ihrer Verminderung, sofern diese Seilbahnen bestimmungsgemäß eingesetzt werden und die verbleibende Restgefahr vom Hersteller vorhergesehen sowie in Kauf genommen wurde. Eine vollständige Liste aller betrachteten Gefährdungen nach EN ISO 12100:2010 ist im Anhang A wiedergegeben.
Die Anforderungen dieses Dokumentes gelten nicht für Einrichtungen und Systeme, die vor dem Erscheinungsdatum dieses Dokumentes hergestellt oder in Verkehr gebracht wurden.

Sécurité des machines - Installations à câbles destinées au transport de matériel et personnes spécifiquement désignées - Exigences de sécurité générale

La présente norme de type C s’applique aux installations à câbles permanentes de type téléphériques à va-et-vient, monocâble ou bi-câble, à une ou deux voies, destinées au transport :
- de matériels destinés à l’approvisionnement et l’évacuation des déchets de refuges ; et
- de personnes spécifiquement désignées.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux installations suivantes :
- les installations à câbles conçues, construites et exploitées principalement pour le transport de personnes et soumises au règlement (UE) 2016/424 ;
- les installations temporaires ;
- les ascenseurs ;
- les funiculaires ;
- les équipements permanents ou temporaires destinés exclusivement aux loisirs et aux divertissements et non utilisés comme moyen de transport pour les personnes ;
- les remontées mécaniques pour le ski nautique ;
- les équipements agricoles et forestiers ;
- les grues à câble et les installations de grues ;
- les installations minières et autres installations implantées et utilisées à des fins industrielles ;
- les installations de forage.
Le présent document traite des phénomènes dangereux significatifs qui interviennent lors de la construction et de l’exploitation des installations à câbles susmentionnées, ainsi que des mesures permettant de réduire ou d’éliminer ces risques, à condition que ces installations à câbles soient utilisées conformément à leur destination et que le risque résiduel ait été prévu et accepté par le constructeur. Une liste complète de tous les dangers considérés selon la norme EN ISO 12100:2010 est donnée à l’Annexe A.
Les prescriptions de la présente norme ne s’appliquent pas aux équipements et systèmes fabriqués ou mis sur le marché avant la date de sa publication.
Dans le cas de modifications apportées à des installations à câbles existantes, ces modifications doivent être évaluées du point de vue de leur pertinence en matière de sécurité conformément à la norme EN ISO 12100:2010. Si cette évaluation montre que les modifications envisagées ne constituent pas une modification substantielle au sens de la directive machines, les exigences de ce document doivent cependant être respectées par les ensembles/composants concernés.
Pour faciliter la lecture, seul le terme d’« installation à câbles » est utilisé pour désigner les types d’installation traités dans la présente norme.
Le présent document ne traite pas :
- des risques dus au bruit ;
- des risques dus aux vibrations ;
- des risques d’explosion ;
- des risques dus aux interférences électromagnétiques (CEM).
NOTE La directive 2014/30/UE relative à la compatibilité électromagnétique peut s’appliquer aux types de machines ou composants couverts par cette norme. La présente norme n’est pas destinée à démontrer la conformité aux exigences essentielles d’hygiène et de sécurité de la directive précitée ou aux risques mentionnés ci-dessus.

Introduction
This document is a Type C standard, as defined in EN ISO 12100:2010.
The affected cableways and the hazards covered are defined within the scope of this document.
In preparing this standard, it was assumed that:
a) negotiations have taken place between the operator and the manufacturer about specific conditions
of use and the place of use of the cableway in terms of health and safety;
b) only qualified individual operate, clean, check, maintain, inspect and repair cableways;
c) the installation site allows the cableway to be operated safely;
d) no components have specific requirements:
1) have been made from material of adequate strength and durability and of appropriate quality;
2) operate mechanically without any faults;
3) have been measured in line with stand
