Machines for surface cleaning and pre-treatment of industrial items using liquids or vapours - Part 2: Safety of machines using water based cleaning liquids

This European Standard deals only with the significant hazards of machines for surface cleaning and pre-treatment (in the following called "cleaning machines") of industrial items using water based cleaning liquids in the mode of suspension, solution or dispersion of compounds or substances in water applied by immersion and/or spraying in one or more stages. This European Standard should apply in combination with EN 12921-1. Both parts together cover all significant hazards relevant for cleaning machines for industrial items using liquids or vapours, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see clause 4). The specific requirements specified in this standard take precedence over the respective requirements in EN 12921-1. This standard should be applied together with EN 12921-3 in case of release of flammable vapours from water based cleaning liquids. This European Standard should be applied together with EN 12921-3 and prEN 12921-4 in case of use of water based cleaning liquids of which evaporating can lead to hazards caused by explosive atmospheres. Water based cleaning liquids containing a quantity of halogenated solvents exceeding 2 % of the volume are considered hazardous with respect to the creation of a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Maschinen zur Oberflächenreinigung und -vorbehandlung von industriellen Produkten mittels Flüssigkeiten oder Dampffasen - Teil 2: Anlagen, in denen wässrige Reinigungsmittel verwendet werden

Dieses Dokument behandelt signifikante Gefährdungen von Maschinen zur Oberflächenreinigung und -vorbe-handlung - im Folgenden Reinigungsanlagen genannt - von industriellen Produkten, in denen wässrige Reinigungsflüssigkeiten in Form von Suspensionen, Lösungen oder Dispersionen von Verbindungen oder Substanzen in Wasser im Tauch- und/oder Sprühverfahren in einem oder mehreren Anlagenabschnitten verwendet werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt in Verbindung mit EN 12921-1:2005. Zusammen decken beide Teile alle signifikanten Gefährdungen für Reinigungsanlagen für industrielle Produkte, in denen Flüssigkeiten oder Dampfphasen verwendet werden, wenn sie bestimmungsgemäß und unter den vom Hersteller vorgesehenen Bedingungen, verwendet werden (siehe Abschnitt 4). Die spezifischen Anforderungen in diesem Teil haben Vorrang vor vergleichbaren Vorschriften in EN 12921-1:2005. Diese Norm sollte  im Falle einer Freisetzung von brennbaren Dämpfen aus der Reinigungsflüssigkeit in Verbindung mit EN 12921-3 angewendet werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt zusammen mit EN 12921-3 und EN 12921-4 bei Verwendung von wässrigen Reinigungsflüssigkeiten, bei denen ein Verdampfen zu Gefährdungen durch explosionsfähige Atmosphäre führen kann. Wässrige Reinigungsflüssigkeiten mit einem Anteil an halogenierten Lösemitteln über 2% (flüssig oder dampfförmig) werden hinsichtlich der Bildung explosionsfähiger Atmosphäre als Gefährdung angesehen.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Maschinen und deren Ausrüstung, die durch den Anwendungsbereich der EN 12921-1 ausgeschlossen sind.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Reinigungsanlagen von industriellen Produkten, in denen wässrige Reinigungsflüssigkeiten verwendet werden, die vor Veröffentlichung dieser EN durch CEN hergestellt wurden.

Machines de nettoyage et de pré-traitement de pièces industrielles utilisant des liquides ou des vapeurs - Partie 2: Sécurité des machines utilisant des liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse

La présente Norme européenne traite uniquement des phénomènes dangereux significatifs des machines de nettoyage et de pré-traitement (ci-après désignées «machines de nettoyage») des pièces industrielles utilisant des liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse sous forme de suspension, solution ou dispersion de composés ou substances dans de l'eau appliqués par immersion et/ou pulvérisation en une ou plusieurs étapes.
La présente Norme européenne s’applique" conjointement à l’EN 12921-1. Les deux parties couvrent tous les phénomènes dangereux significatifs pertinents aux machines de nettoyage pour pièces industrielles utilisant des liquides ou vapeurs, lorsque ces machines sont utilisées conformément à l'usage prévu et dans les conditions prévues par le fabricant (voir article 4). Les prescriptions spécifiques précisées dans la présente norme prévalent sur les prescriptions respectives de l’EN 12921-1. Il convient d'appliquer la présente norme conjointement à l’EN 12921-3 en cas de dégagement de vapeurs inflammables provenant de liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse.
La présente Norme européenne s’applique" conjointement à l’EN 12921-3 et au prEN 12921-4 en cas d'utilisation de liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse dont l'évaporation peut entraîner des phénomènes dangereux engendrés par des atmosphères explosives. Les liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse contenant une quantité de solvants halogénés excédant 2 % du volume sont considérés comme dangereux du fait de la formation d'une atmosphère explosible.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux machines et équipements annexes exclus du domaine d'application de l’EN 12921-1.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux machines de nettoyage de pièces industrielles utilisant des liquides de nettoyage à base aqueuse fabriquées avant la date de publication de la présente norme par le CEN.

EN 12921-2:2005+A1:2008 (E) 8 Table 1 (continued) Clause/sub-clause of this standard Hazard Clause/sub-clause of EN 12921-1:20044.6.2 Hazards resulting from contact with/or inhalation of dangerous liquids, gases, aerosol, fumes and dusts An assessment shall be carried out considering the characteristics of the water based cleaning liquid for which the cleaning machine is designed, the material(s) to be processed, the properties of the contaminants to be removed and their interaction with the characteristics of the cleaning machine. The level of risk depends on the dangerous properties of the substances used or processed, their compatibility with the characteristics and material of construction of the cleaning machine, the likelihood that exposure will occur and the degree of exposure.
The hazards generated by contact with/or inhalation of dangerous fluids, gases, mists, fumes and dust can be caused by e.g.:  contact with irritant of corrosive chemicals (e.g. by pickling, passivating);  inhalation of vapours, powder or mist (e.g. during preparation of solutions for chromating and phosphating);  backflow of water based cleaning liquid into the public water supply. The above mentioned hazards can occur in the following situations and can be caused by:  handling of the cleaning products (due to the necessity of mixing and/or the reaction with water) during the filling and refilling of the cleaning machine;  normal operation;  chemical reaction caused by the contaminant(s) during the cleaning process;  chemical reaction caused by mixing not compatible products;  modification of the chemical characteristics of the water based cleaning liquid which may occur during the process;  cleaning machine failure or breakdown due to the not compatibility of material of construction with the water based cleaning liquid or the chemical reactions generated during the cleaning process;  maintenance. 4.6.2 4.6.3 Fire and explosion hazard See 4.6.3.1 and 4.6.3.2 of EN 12921-1:2004. These hazards may be caused by:  the forming of hydrogen caused by chemical reaction of acid or alkaline cleaning liquid with metal (e.g. particularly with aluminium, magnesium or other alloys), in particular fines, small chips and swarf, and/or contaminants;  the water based liquid to be used in the cleaning machine (e.g. emulsion);  change in composition of the water based liquid due to drag out or flammable residues being removed from items being cleaned;  deflagration in oil or gas direct fired heating system. 4.6.3 4.7 Hazards combinations 4.7 4.8 Hazards caused by failure of energy supply 4.8 4.9 Hazards related to failure of control system 4.9 SIST EN 12921-2:2005+A1:2009
