Food processing machinery - Vegetable peelers - Safety and hygiene requirements
Machines pour les produits alimentaires - Eplucheuses à légumes - Prescriptions relatives à la sécurité et à l'hygiène Nahrungsmittelmaschinen - Gemüseschälmaschinen - Sicherheits- und Hygieneanforderungen This European Standard was approved by CEN on 9 January 2003 and includes Amendment 1 approved by CEN on 9 April 2010.

the abrading of the surface of the vegetable or tuber; 
the cutting of fine particles of skin if the fitting is of the blade-type; 
grating, an operation which is similar to abrading; 
scraping or cleaning with a brush, rubber coating or cast iron surface. Machines subject to this standard use water circulation to carry waste to the waste outlet. The underside of the plate is sometimes designed with raised parts which speed up the discharge of the waste water. !This European Standard deals with the hazards which can arise during commissioning, operation, cleaning, removal of food blockages, feeding, changing the tools, maintenance and decommissioning of the machine." Machines covered by this standard are not intended to be cleaned by high pressure water jets. 1.2 This European standard does not apply to domestic machines. Vegetable peelers have nothing in common with meat derinding machines (which are dealt with in
!EN 12355"), both from their design and use standpoint. 1.3 !This European Standard specifies all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to vegetable peelers, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4)." 1.4 !Noise is not considered to be a significant hazard for vegetable peelers. This does not mean that the manufacturer of the machine is absolved from reducing noise and making a noise declaration. Therefore a noise test code is included in Annex A." !deleted text" ! 1.5 It has been assumed in preparing this European Standard that the vegetables to be processed have no foreign bodies, e.g. stones. 1.6 This European Standard is not applicable to vegetable peelers which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN."

!EN ISO 12100-2" for hazards relevant but not significant, which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges). !For hazards which are to be reduced by the application of the type B-standards such as EN 614-1, EN 953,
EN 1088, EN 60204-1, EN 60529, EN ISO 12100, EN ISO 13849-1 and EN ISO 13857, the manufacturer shall carry out a risk assessment to establish the requirements of the type B-standard. This specific risk assessment shall be part of the general risk assessment of the machine." Where the means of reducing the risk is by the physical arrangement or positioning of the installed machine, the manufacturer shall include in the Information for use a reference to the reduction means to be provided, and to any limiting value of the requirement, and, if appropriate, to the means of verification. Where the means of reducing the risk is by a safe system of working the machinery, the manufacturer shall include in the Information for use details of the system and of the elements of training required by the operating personnel. !When fixed guards, or parts of the machine acting as such, are not permanently fixed e.g. by welding, their fixing systems shall remain attached to the guards or to the machine when the guards are removed." 5.2 Mechanical hazards !deleted text" 5.2.1 Access to danger zones 5.2.1.1 Zone 1: Access to peeling chamber via feeding opening The gap between the rotating plate and the walls of the peeling chamber shall not exceed 8 mm. 5.2.1.2 Zone 2: Access to the peeling chamber via the delivery chute The shape of the plate shall be designed to prevent generation of a crushing zone between the plate and the edge of the opening e.g. a rim around the plate (see Figures 1 and 4).

Figure 4 — Zone 2 5.2.1.3 Zone 3: Rotating plate The rotating plate shall be designed so that it does not present any sharp parts accessible to the operator, nor create any shearing points with the walls of the peeling chamber. If the rotating plate is equipped with blades, then their cutting depth shall not be more than 0,5 mm, and the width of the opening in front of the blades shall not exceed 8 mm (see Figure 5).
Figure 5 5.2.1.4 Zone 4: Drive system Access to the danger zone shall be prevented by fixed guards complying with EN 953. 5.2.1.5 Zone 5: Waste outlet It shall not be possible for a finger to access any gap between the surfaces below the rotating plate and the rotating plate or its drive components. Any guard provided to prevent this access shall conform to Table 4 of
!EN ISO 13857:2008" and shall require the use of a tool to dismantle. 5.2.1.6 Zone 6: Hinged lid When a hinged lid is fitted, it shall remain in the fully open position until closed intentionally e.g. it shall open through more than 95° from the horizontal. SIST EN 13208:2004+A1:2010

Figure 6 5.2.4 Handling, cleaning and storage All necessary information required for safe transport and handling shall be marked clearly on the packaging and shall also be indicated in the instruction handbook. 5.3 !Electrical hazards 5.3.1 General Electrical equipment, for example switches, that may be exposed to water, e.g. during cleaning, shall be protected to an appropriate IP rating according to EN 60529 and EN 60204-1. The electrical equipment shall comply with EN 60204-1:2006, with the following precision. 5.3.2 Safety requirements related to electromagnetic phenomena The machines shall have sufficient immunity to electromagnetic disturbances to enable them to operate safely as intended and not fail to danger when exposed to the levels and types of disturbances intended by the manufacturer. The manufacturer of the machines shall design, install and wire the equipment and sub-assemblies taking into account the recommendations of the suppliers of these sub-assemblies. 5.3.3 Protection against electric shock The electrical equipment shall comply with Clause 6 of EN 60204-1:2006. SIST EN 13208:2004+A1:2010

EN 60204-1:2006, 7.2.3. In case of single phase machines, no such device is required for the earthed neutral conductor. 5.3.5 Protection against earth faults in control circuits For machinery supplied from a single-phase conductor and an earthed neutral conductor, there is no requirement for double pole interruption of the control circuit. The single pole interruption shall be in the phase conductor (see 9.4.3.1 of EN 60204-1:2006). 5.3.6 Emergency stop Machines shall be fitted with at least one emergency stop (see 10.7 of EN 60204-1:2006), as far as the risk assessment carried out by the manufacturer doesn't allow to establish that such a device would not reduce the stopping time, or would not enable the special measures, required to deal with the risk, to be taken. In general no emergency stop is required for vegetable peelers. In this case particular attention shall be given to the accessibility of the normal OFF switch from the operator position. 5.3.7 Motor enclosures Where a motor has a degree of protection lower than IP23 it shall be mounted inside an enclosure (see 14.2 of
EN 60204-1:2006) that guarantees a minimum degree of protection of IP23." 5.4 Hygiene 5.4.1 General The vegetable peeler shall be designed in accordance with EN 1672-2, the requirements given below and in accordance with annex B. Hygiene zones, as defined in 3.4 of !EN 1672-2:2005", are shown in Figure 7. SIST EN 13208:2004+A1:2010
