Safety of machinery - Pressure sensitive protective devices - Part 3: General principles for the design and testing of pressure sensitive bumpers, plates, wires and similar devices
This document deals with requirements for pressure sensitive protective devices which are not specified in EN 1760-1 and EN 1760-2. The majority of these devices are produced for specific applications and are not available as off-the-shelf items.
The purpose of this document relates primarily to safety and reliability rather than suitability. For the relationship between safety and reliability, see EN 954-1:1996, Annex D.
This document specifies requirements for pressure sensitive protective devices with and without an external reset facility.
This document does not specify the dimensions of pressure sensitive protective devices in relation to any particular application. Specific requirements for particular applications may be set out in relevant type C standards.
The document does not cover stopping devices used only for the regular operation, including emergency stopping, of machinery. It also does not apply to use in locations accessible to elderly or disabled persons or children, where special additional requirements may be necessary.
Basic requirements are given for pressure sensitive protective devices not covered in EN 1760-1 and EN 1760-2.
Specific requirements are given for the following devices:
- pressure sensitive bumpers;
- pressure sensitive plates;
- pressure sensitive wires (trip wires).
NOTE Some requirements are made with respect to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). These are intended to meet the requirements of the Council Directive 98/37/EC ("Machinery Directive") [1] only and not those of Council Directive 89/336/EC ("EMC Directive") [2].
Sicherheit von Maschinen - Druckempfindliche Schutzeinrichtungen - Teil 3: Allgemeine Leitsätze für die Gestaltung und Prüfung von Schaltpuffern, Schaltflächen, Schaltleinen und ähnlichen Einrichtungen
Dieses Dokument behandelt Anforderungen für druckempfindliche Schutzeinrichtungen, die nicht in
EN 1760-1 und EN 1760-2 festgelegt sind. Die Mehrzahl dieser Einrichtungen wird für bestimmte
Anwendungen hergestellt und ist nicht als übliche Handelsware erhältlich.
Dieses Dokument hat in erster Linie die Sicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit, und nicht die Eignung zum Ziel. Für
die Beziehung zwischen Sicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit, siehe EN 954-1:1996, Anhang D.
Dieses Dokument legt Anforderungen für druckempfindliche Schutzeinrichtungen mit und ohne Rückstelleinrichtung
fest.
Dieses Dokument legt nicht die Abmessungen von druckempfindlichen Schutzeinrichtungen in Bezug auf eine
bestimmte Anwendung fest. Spezielle Anforderungen für besondere Anwendungen können in den entsprechenden
Typ C-Normen enthalten sein.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht Stoppeinrichtungen, die nur für den Normalbetrieb von Maschinen,
einschließlich Not-Aus, verwendet werden. Sie gilt ebenfalls nicht für die Anwendung an Orten, die für alte
oder behinderte Menschen oder Kinder zugänglich sind und an denen zusätzliche Anforderungen erforderlich
sein können.
Es werden grundlegende Anforderungen für druckempfindliche Schutzeinrichtungen gegeben, die in
EN 1760-1 und EN 1760-2 nicht behandelt werden. Spezielle Anforderungen sind für folgende Einrichtungen
angegeben:
- Schaltpuffer,
- Schaltflächen und
- Schaltleinen.
ANMERKUNG Einige Anforderungen wurden in Bezug auf elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit (EMV) gemacht. Diese
sollen nur die Anforderungen der Richtlinie 98/37/EG des Europäischen Parlaments und des Rates („Maschinenrichtlinie“)
[1] und nicht die Anforderungen der Richtlinie 89/336/EG des Rates („EMV-Richtlinie“) [2] erfüllen.

applications spécifiques. Des prescriptions spécifiques pour des applications particulières peuvent être définies dans
les normes de type C correspondantes.
Le présent document ne couvre pas les dispositifs d'arrêt utilisés exclusivement pour le fonctionnement normal
des machines, y compris l’arrêt d'urgence. Elle ne s'applique pas non plus aux utilisations dans des lieux accessibles
aux personnes âgées, aux personnes handicapées ou aux enfants, où des prescriptions spécifiques supplémentaires
peuvent être nécessaires.
Des prescriptions de base sont données pour les dispositifs de protection sensibles à la pression qui ne sont pas
couverts par l'EN 1760-1 et l'EN 1760-2.
Des prescriptions particulières sont données pour les dispositifs suivants :
- pare-chocs sensibles à la pression ;
- plaques sensibles à la pression ;
- câbles sensibles à la pression (câbles de détection de passage).
NOTE Certaines prescriptions portent sur la compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM). Elles visent à satisfaire les
prescriptions de la Directive du conseil 98/37/CE («Directive Machines») [1] uniquement et non celles de la Directive du
conseil 89/336/CE («Directive CEM») [2].

!EN ISO 14121-1"). The best solution may combine several of these different means. It is recommended that the machinery / vehicle supplier and the user examine together carefully the existing constraints before making their decision on the choice of safeguarding means. This European Standard does not specify the dimensions and the configuration of the effective sensing surface of pressure sensitive protective devices in relation to any particular application. However, there is a requirement for the manufacturer of any safety device to provide sufficient information to enable the user (i.e. the machinery manufacturer and / or the user of the machinery) to specify an adequate arrangement.
