European foreword

This document (prEN 1755:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 150 “Industrial

Trucks - Safety”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1755:2015.

In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:

• Inclusion of requirements for driverless trucks;

• Requirements of EN 1175:2020 have been assessed and clarified where appropriate;

• Removal of requirement b) for brake materials as does not represent state of the art in brake material

technology;
• Normative standard references updated.

This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European

Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU

Directive(s) / Regulation(s).

For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part

of this document.

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.

This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market

players with regard to machinery safety:
• machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);

• health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).

Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the

above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
• machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);

• machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);

• service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
• consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).

The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting

process of this document.

The machines concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are

covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.

When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type B

standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the other

standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C

standard.

This document covers specific safety requirements where industrial trucks will operate in potentially

explosive atmospheres that are not covered exhaustively by:
• EN 1459-1:2017+A1:2020 and EN 1459-2:2015+A1:2018;
• ISO 24134:2006;
• EN ISO 3691-1:2015 ;
• EN ISO 3691-2:2016;
• EN ISO 3691-3:2016;
• EN ISO 3691-4:2020;
• EN ISO 3691-5:2015
• EN ISO 3691-6:2015.

Assessment of hazards

The product needs to be designed in such a way that it is fit for its purpose or function and can be adjusted

and maintained without putting persons at risk when used under the conditions foreseen by the

manufacturer.

In order to properly design a product and to cover all specific safety requirements, the manufacturer

needs to identify the hazards that apply to their product and carry out a risk assessment. The

manufacturer then needs to design and construct the product taking this assessment into account.

The aim of this procedure is to eliminate the risk of accidents throughout the foreseeable lifetime of the

machinery, including the phases of assembling and dismantling where risks of accidents can also arise

from foreseeable abnormal situations.

In selecting the most appropriate methods, the manufacturer needs to apply the following principles, in

the order given here:

a) eliminate or reduce risks as far as possible by design (inherently safe machinery design and

construction);

b) take the necessary protective measures in relation to risks that cannot be eliminated by design;

c) inform users of any shortcoming of the protective measures adopted;
d) indicate whether any particular training is required;
e) specify any need to provide personal protection equipment;
f) refer to the appropriate user's document for proper operating instructions.

Industrial trucks need to be designed to prevent foreseeable misuse wherever possible, if such would

engender risk. In other cases, the manufacturer's instructions need to draw the user's attention to ways

shown by experience in which the machinery ought not to be used.

This document does not repeat all the technical rules which are state-of-the-art, and which are applicable

to the material used to construct the industrial truck. Refer to ISO 12100:2010.

1 Scope

This document applies to self-propelled and pedestrian propelled manual and semi-manual industrial

trucks as defined in ISO 5053-1:2020 including their load handling devices and attachments (hereafter

referred to as trucks) intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

NOTE 1 Attachments mounted on the load carrier or on fork arms which are removable by the user are not

considered to be a part of the truck.

This document specifies supplementary technical requirements for the prevention of the ignition of an

explosive atmosphere of flammable gases, vapours, mists or dusts by industrial trucks of equipment

group II and equipment category 2G, 3G, 2D or 3D.

NOTE 2 The relationship between an equipment category (hereafter referred to as category) and the

corresponding zone (area classification) is shown in informative Annex B.
This document is not applicable to:
• trucks of equipment group I;
• trucks of equipment group II, equipment category 1;

• trucks intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres with hybrid mixtures;

• protective systems.

This document is not applicable to trucks intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres of carbon

disulphide (CS ), carbon monoxide (CO) and/or ethylene oxide (C H O) due to the special properties of

2 2 4
these gases.

Technical requirements relating to lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells as energy sources are not given in

this document due to their specific hazards.
