Overview
SIST EN 16486:2014/kprA1:2020 is a European Standard developed by CEN that sets forth the safety requirements for machines used to compact waste materials or recyclable fractions. This standard is essential for manufacturers, operators, and safety professionals involved with compactors that process materials such as paper, plastics, textiles, cans, cardboard, and mixed waste. The standard focuses on compactors with horizontally moving compacting parts, including screw, pendulum, or plate types, either mechanically fed or fed by hand.
The scope covers multiple types of compactors:
- Static compactors
- Transportable compactors
- Traversing systems
Additionally, it includes integral mechanical feed equipment, feed hoppers/openings, pre-conditioning devices (like perforators and shredders), and the interface between compactors and feed equipment, ensuring comprehensive safety coverage in design, manufacture, and operation.
Key Topics
Safety Requirements
Emphasizes hazard identification and mitigation during compactor operation. Special attention is given to electrical hazards, including risks associated with incorrect phase order and the requirement of phase inverters for transportable compactors.Design and Manufacture
The standard guides the safe design of compaction machinery, integrating safety devices and controls that reduce operator risks and material handling dangers.Instructions for Use
Detailed documentation must be provided, including safe operation instructions, connection guidelines (notably for electrical supply and phase inverters), and maintenance protocols.Electrical Safety
Aligns with EN 60204-1:2006 standards for electrical equipment, with added clauses focused specifically on the prevention of electrical injuries related to phase sequence errors.Excluded Equipment
The standard does not apply to compactors covered by EN 1501, underground compactors used solely underground, thermal or vacuum compactors, and vertical compacting machines, among others.
Applications
This standard is critical in various sectors including:
Waste Management and Recycling
Ensures safe compaction of recyclable materials such as plastics, paper, and cardboard, supporting waste reduction and efficient recycling processes.Industrial Facilities
Many manufacturing and processing plants use compactors to manage waste or recyclable byproducts safely, complying with safety legislation using EN 16486 guidelines.Transportable Compactors
Enables safe use and deployment of mobile compactors across different sites, addressing electrical hazards unique to transportable machines.Municipal and Commercial Waste Services
Supports safe operation and handling of compactors in urban waste collection systems, improving worker safety and operational reliability.
By adhering to SIST EN 16486:2014/kprA1:2020, organizations ensure compliance with essential EU machinery safety directives (Directive 2006/42/EC) and reduce operational risks through standardized safety practices.
