Food processing machinery - Derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal machines - Safety and hygiene requirements
EN 12355:2022

This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to derinding , skinning- and membrane removal machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This document deals with the hazards which can arise during commissioning, operation, cleaning, use, maintenance and decommissioning of the machine.
The machines described in this standard are used for derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal of meat and fish by cutting at a straight blade and/or cutting with circular blades. Feeding could be done manually or automatically.
Using open derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal machines, the product is guided by hand towards the cutting device.
With automatic derinding-, skinning and membrane removal machines the product is transported by an infeed conveyor against the cutting device. Product with a weight > 25 kg has to be processed by an automatic machine.
Derinding-, skinning-, and membrane removal machines for domestic purposes, hand-guided machines and table-top machines are not covered by this standard.
This document only applies to machines which are manufactured after the date of issue of this document.
This document covers the following types of machines:
a)   open derinding machines (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) with infeed table and a distance h between the standing position and the surface of the infeed table from 800 mm to 1 050 mm. The cutting thickness shall be t ≤ 5 mm;
b)   open skinning- and membrane removal machines (see Figure 1 and Figure 3) with infeed table and a distance h between the standing position and the surface of the infeed table from 800 mm to 1 050 mm. The cutting thickness shall be t ≤ 0,5 mm.

Automatic machines which are charged automatically and are integrated in dismantling lines do not have to follow the requirements on the height of the surface of the infeed conveyor (800 mm to 1 050 mm) because the ergonomic matters need not be considered.
Automatic machines could be equipped with different rolls (see Figure 6).

Food processing machinery - Bulk milk coolers on farms - Requirements for performance, safety and hygiene
EN 13732:2022

1.1   This document specifies requirements for design, performance, safety and hygiene of refrigerated bulk milk coolers and the related methods of test.
NOTE   The informative Annex J gives some elements regarding the estimation and calculation of energy consumption.
This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to bulk milk coolers on farm, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
It applies to refrigerated bulk milk tanks with air-cooled condensing units and automatic control intended for installation on farms or at milk collection points. It applies to tanks for two milkings (24 h), four milkings (48 h) and six milkings (72 h), in which the cooling takes place totally (non-pre-cooled milk) or partially (in case of pre-cooled milk) within the tank. It also applies to tanks in combination with a continuous system of milking (e.g. milking with robot).
1.2   This document does not cover:
-   mobile tanks;
-   tanks intended to be tilted for drainage;
-   equipment for delivering the milk to the tank;
-   equipment for pre-cooling of the milk;
-   the hazards due to the use of other energy than electrical energy;
-   pressure aspect of vacuum tanks (i.e. tanks where the inner part of the vessel is designed to operate at a pressure below atmospheric pressure).
1.3   Noise is not considered to be a significant hazard, but relevant for bulk milk coolers. This document therefore includes information in 7.1 and in Annex A concerning the manufacturer's declaration of the noise emission level of the cooler.
1.4   This document does not cover the calibration requirements for the tank to be used as a system for payment purpose.
1.5   This document is not applicable to bulk milk coolers on farm which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

Food processing machinery - Rotary rack ovens - Safety and hygiene requirements
EN 1673:2020

This document specifies safety and hygiene requirements for the design and manufacture of rotary rack ovens which can be used with one or more mobile racks.
These ovens are intended for professional use in the food industry and workshops (bakeries, pastry-making, etc.) for the batch baking of foodstuffs containing flour, water and other ingredients and/or additives. This document applies to ovens used only for food products except for those containing vola-tile flammable ingredients (volatile organic compound, e.g. alcohol, oil, ...). This document applies to ovens where the steam is generated by an evaporation process of potable water on hot surfaces.
The following machines are excluded:
-   experimental and testing machines under development by the manufacturer;
-   machines for non-professional uses.
This document covers the technical safety requirements for the transport, installation, operation, clean-ing and maintenance of these machines (see EN 12100:2010, Clause 6).
This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to rotary rack ovens, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see informative Annex E).
Noise is not considered to be a significant hazard. This does not mean that the manufacturer is absolved from reducing noise and making a noise declaration. Therefore, a noise test code is given in Annex B.
The following hazards are not covered by this document:
-   hazards from the use of gaseous fuel by gas appliances;
-   hazards arising from electromagnetic compatibility issues;
-   hazards from the use of trays made of or coated by silicone.
This document is not applicable to rotary rack ovens which were manufactured before the date of its publication as an EN standard.
