Diese Maschinen sind nicht für den Gebrauch während des Transportes bestimmt.
Diese Norm spezifiziert Sicherheitsanforderungen für Konstruktion, Bau und Betrieb.
Diese Norm befasst sich mit der bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung, vorhersehbarem Missbrauch und möglichem Versagen der Bauteile und des Systems.
Diese Norm berücksichtigt Materialzufuhr und Bedienungsvorrichtungen, die, nach Anbringen an der Maschine, zu einem integralen Bestandteil der Maschine werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Maschinen, die nach dem Datum ihrer Veröffentlichung gebaut werden.
Diese Norm legt keine Anforderungen für elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit fest.
ANMERKUNG   Die Richtlinie 94/9/EG zu Ausstattung und Sicherheitssystemen in potentiell explosionsfähiger Atmosphäre kann für die in dieser Europäischen Norm behandelten Arten von Maschinen oder Ausrüstung Anwendung finden. Die derzeitige Norm entspricht jedoch nicht in allem der Richtlinie 94/9/EG. In eine zukünftige Überarbeitung müssen zur Erfüllung der Richtlinie 94/9/EG möglicherweise zusätzliche Sicherheitsanforderungen aufgenommen werden.

5 Safety requirements and/or measures
NOTE For hazards not covered by this European Standard which are to be reduced by the application of a B-standard
such as EN 292, EN 294, EN 418, EN 953, EN 60204-1 etc., a risk assessment is necessary to establish the requirements of
the B-standard to be applied. This specific risk assessment is part of the general risk assessment of the machine
Machinery shall comply with the safety requirements and/or measures of this clause.
In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of EN 292 for hazards relevant but not
significant which are not dealt with by this standard.
5.1 General
See 1.1.2 of annex A of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995.
5.2 Common requirements concerning Roller coating machines
5.2.1 Mechanical equipment
5.2.1.1 Safeguarding against the hazards generated by moving transmission parts (such as pulleys, belts,
gears, rack, etc.) shall be ensured by:
- fixed enclosing guards in accordance with EN 953 and 4.2.2.2 of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995.
or
- movable interlocking guards in accordance with EN 953, EN 1088, and 4.2.2.3 of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995.
5.2.1.2 Hazardous motions of moving machinery parts, feed systems, tools and workpieces shall be
safeguarded by:
- fixed enclosing guards or covers which satisfy EN 953 and 4.2.2.2 of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995;
or
- fixed distance guards which satisfy EN 953 and 4.2.2.1 of EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995 and the distances given in
appropriate Tables (1, 3 or 4) of EN 294:1992.
5.2.1.3 All the guards mentioned in 5.2 and 5.3 shall be in accordance with clause 5 of EN 953:1997 (design
and construction) and shall be designed and manufactured in such a way as to keep all their functions during a
force application of 800 N to the central zone of the guard between two supports, distributed over an area of
2
approximately 0,01 m .
On release of the force no detectable distortion of the guard shall remain.
5.2.1.4 Where the above measures cannot be applied, devices shall be provided which will effect a shutdown
of the hazardous motion before reaching the danger point.
Suitable protection devices are:
 movable interlocking guards which satisfy EN 953, EN 1088 and 4.2.2.3 of
EN 292-2:1991/A1:1995;
 trip devices, such as
