interchangeable equipment (i.e. combined by the user with another machine or vehicle acting as a driver).
This document does not apply to fire-fighting centrifugal pumps without primer with a nominal delivery
pressure p above 15 bar.
N
NOTE 2 High pressure pumps with primer are dealt with in EN 1028-1 and EN 1028-2.

This document does not deal with noise.
This document does not deal with the technical safety requirements for the design or manufacture of drivers or of
additional equipment intended to be fitted to inlet and outlet connections. It does not cover risks directly arising
from means provided for the portability, transportability, and mobility of pump units during or between periods of
operation, or requirements for power transmission devices. In addition, this document does not cover:
 hazards occurring due to decommissioning;
 hazards during use due to a specific environment (e.g. traffic during use on public roads, potentially
explosive atmospheres).

5.1.1 Fire-fighting centrifugal pumps without priming devices shall comply with the safety requirements
and/or protective measures of this clause. In addition, the pump shall be designed according to the principles
of EN ISO 12100-1 and EN ISO 12100-2 for hazards relevant but not significant, which are not dealt with by
this document.
5.1.2 Before using this document it is important to carry out a risk assessment of the machine to check that
it has the hazards identified in this clause.
5.1.3 For hazards which are to be reduced by the application of type B-standards referred to in this

the general risk assessment of the machine.
5.2 Special requirements
5.2.1 Mechanical hazards
5.2.1.1 Crushing, shearing, cutting and entanglement
5.2.1.1.1 General
Means shall be incorporated to reduce the hazards created by exposed moving parts, including as appropriate:
