Overview
EN 12629-5-3:2003/FprA1 is a European standard developed by CEN Technical Committee CEN/TC 151 focused on the safety requirements for pipe prestressing machines used in the manufacture of constructional products from concrete and calcium-silicate. This standard serves as a Type C-standard supplementing the general safety provisions of EN 12629-1:2000+A1:2010, specifically addressing the unique hazards and protective measures for pipe prestressing machines. It ensures the machinery complies with EU safety directives, including 98/37/EC and 2006/42/EC, promoting safe design, operation, and risk reduction in industrial environments.
Key Topics
Scope and Application
- Applies to pipe prestressing machines used in the concrete and calcium-silicate construction products industry.
- Supplements the general safety requirements in EN 12629-1 and specifies additional or deviating requirements particular to pipe prestressing.
- Covers foreseeable misuse and significant hazards inherent to these machines.
Safety Requirements and Protective Measures
- Defines risk assessment principles based on EN ISO 12100.
- Emphasizes compliance with safety principles for elimination or reduction of hazards.
- Requires manufacturers to consider site-specific risk reduction means as part of risk assessment.
- Refers to integration with standards like EN ISO 13850 (safety stop), EN ISO 13857 (safeguarding heights), EN 60204-1 (electrical safety), and EN ISO 7731 (auditory danger signals).
Verification and Compliance
- Specifies verification procedures aligned with EN 12629-1:2000+A1.
- Mandates safety instructions, proper marking, and information for use to ensure user awareness and correct machine operation.
Hazard Zones and Risk Identification
- Details identification and documentation of hazard zones linked to machine components and operations.
- Supports safe operator interaction and maintenance activities by clear hazard mapping.
Relationship with EU Directives
- Conforms to essential health and safety requirements of EU Directives 98/37/EC and 2006/42/EC.
- Ensures presumption of conformity for manufacturers following this standard within the EU and EFTA member countries.
Applications
EN 12629-5-3:2003/FprA1 is critical for manufacturers, machine designers, safety engineers, and end-users involved in:
- Production of prestressed concrete pipes used in infrastructure such as water supply, sewage, gas pipelines, and drainage systems.
- Ensuring workplace safety compliance in factories that operate specialized machinery for pipe prestressing.
- Risk management and safety auditing of construction equipment manufacturing processes.
- Integrating safety features into new or retrofitted pipe prestressing machinery to meet European regulatory requirements.
This standard supports increased operational safety, prevents accidents, and reduces liability by defining clear technical and procedural safety frameworks.
