Rubber and plastics machines - Reaction moulding machines - Part 1: Safety requirements for metering and mixing units
This standard specifies the health and safety requirements for the design of metering and mixing units for reaction moulding machines. The significant and specific hazards are listed in clause 4 and are dealt with in this standard. This standard does not cover completely the hazards arising from the use of highly flammable additives, for example pentane used as a blowing agent (see 4.7), because these hazards depend to a large extent on the additives and processes used. This standard does not cover the hazards arising from the assembly of separate units not supplied at the same time by the same manufacturer. This standard does not cover the hazards arising from the movement of powered mixing heads; for these, see prEN 1612-2. This standard applies to metering and mixing units manufactured after the date of publication of this standard.
Gummi- und Kunststoffmaschinen - Reaktionsgießmaschinen - Teil 1: Sicherheitsanforderungen an Misch- und Dosiereinheiten
Diese Norm legt die wesentlichen Gesundheits- und Sicherheitsanforderungen an die Konstruktion von Misch- und Dosiereinheiten von Reaktionsgießmaschinen fest. Die signifikanten und spezifischen Gefährdungen sind in Abschnitt 4 angegeben und sind in dieser Norm behandelt. Diese Norm behandelt die Gefährdungen nicht vollständig, die durch die Verwendung leicht entzündlicher Additive, z.B. Pentan als Treibmittel (siehe 4.7), hervorgerufen werden, weil diese Gefährdungen wesentlich von den verwendeten Additiven und dem angewandten Verfahren abhängen.
Machines pour le caoutchouc et les matières plastiques - Machines de moulage par réaction - Partie 1: Prescriptions de sécurité relatives aux unités de dosage et de mélange
Cette norme spécifie les exigences essentielles d'hygiène et de sécurité relatives à la conception des unités de dosage et de mélange des machines de moulage par réaction. Tous les phénomènes dangereux significatifs et spécifiquessont énumérés à l'article 4 et sont traités dans cette norme. Cette norme ne couvre pas complètement les phénomènes dangereux provenant de l'utilisation d'additifs facilement inflammables, par exemple le pentane utilisé comme agent d'expansion (voir 4.7), car ces phénomènes dépendent principalement des additifs et du procédé utilisés.
