This document (EN 618:2002) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN /TC 148, "Continuous handling
equipment and systems", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.

by endorsement, at the latest by October 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest
by October 2002.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European
Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative annex ZA and ZB, which is an integral part of this document.

Introduction
This European standard is a "Type C" standard as defined in EN 1070.
The equipment concerned and the extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of this standard.
EN 617, EN 620 and EN 741 need to be considered for a complete continuous handling system (machine).
While producing this standard, it was assumed that :
only suitably trained persons will operate the equipment ;
all parts of the equipment without specific requirements in this standard are :
designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation codes (e.g. for mobile
equipment FEM 2 131/2 132 or ISO 5049-1, .) including all failure modes ;
made of materials of adequate strength and of quality for their intended purpose taking into account all
failure modes using recognised design methods and appropriate safety factors ;
harmful materials, such as asbestos, are not used as part of the machine ;
components will be kept in good repair and working order in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions,
to retain specified health and safety characteristics throughout its working life ;
by design of the load bearing elements, a safe operation of the equipment is assured for loading ranging from
zero to 100 % of the rated capacity ;
1)
negotiations occur between the manufacturer and the user concerning materials characteristics (see Note 1)
and particular conditions for the use and places of use for the machinery related to health and safety ;
the place of installation is adequately lit.
NOTE 1 For the description of bulk materials, reference can be made to documents FEM 2 581/2 582 and ISO 3435.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of other standards, for equipment that have
been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
1) “Manufacturer” within the European Union is to be understood as intended in the Machinery Directive.
1 Scope
1.1 This standard deals with the technical requirements to minimise the risks due to the hazards listed in clause
4, which can arise during operation and maintenance of mechanical handling equipment defined in clauses 3.1 to
3.3 and which are designed for continuously conveying bulk materials from the loading point(s) to the unloading
point(s).In general, it also applies to equipment which are built into machines or attached to machines. This
standard deals with the technical requirements for EMC.
1.2 The standard does not apply to :
continuous handling equipment and systems for open-cast lignite mining ;
continuous handling equipment and systems for underground mining ;
tunnel digging and excavating machines ;
bulk material processing or classification machines such as grinders, crushers, screens ;
fixed belt conveyors for bulk materials. These are covered by the standard EN 620:2002;
fixed pneumatic handling equipment. These equipment and systems are covered by the standard EN 741 ;
the interface between the machinery dealt with in this standard and the fixed belt or pneumatic conveyor.
1.3 This standard does not give the additional requirements for :
a) use in public areas or for the transportation of people ;
b) floating, dredging and ship mounted equipment ;
c) conveyors requiring a high level of cleanliness for hygiene reasons, e.g. in direct contact with foodstuffs or
pharmaceuticals ;
d) transportation of the equipment ;
e) hazards caused by vibration ;
f) use in ambient air temperature below – 20 °C and above + 40 °C ;
g) the effects of wind on strength and stability ;
h) hazards resulting from handling specific hazardous materials, (e.g. Explosives, radiating material) ;
i) hazards resulting from contact with or inhalation of harmful fluids, gas, mists, fumes and dusts ;
j) biol
