Spray booths for organic coating material - Safety requirements

This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events relevant to spray booths for the application of organic liquid and powder coating materials, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer, including reasonably foreseeable misuse.
See Annex A for significant hazards.
Interfaces between spray booths and other machinery used in coating application are given in Figure 1.
The specific significant risks related to the use of this machinery with foodstuff and pharmaceutical products are not dealt with in this standard.
The specific significant risks related to drying operation of combined spraying and drying booths are not dealt with in this standard, but in EN 1539:2015.
This European Standard is not applicable to:
-   spaces for application of organic coating material consisting only of an extraction wall;
-   platforms attached to spray booths (e.g. for touch-up jobs);
-   flock booths (see EN 50223:2015);
-   spray booths with airflow from vertical inlet to horizontal extraction or from horizontal inlet to vertical extraction.
This European Standard is not applicable to machinery manufactured before the date of its publication as European Standard.

Cabines d'application par pulvérisation de produits de revêtement organiques - Prescriptions de sécurité

La présente Norme européenne traite de tous les phénomènes dangereux, situations dangereuses et événements dangereux significatifs spécifiques aux cabines d’application par pulvérisation pour les produits de revêtements organiques liquides et poudre, lorsqu'elles sont utilisées normalement et dans les conditions prévues par le fabricant, y compris tout mauvais usage raisonnablement prévisible.
Pour les phénomènes dangereux, voir l’Annexe A.
Les interfaces entre les cabines d’application par pulvérisation et les autres équipements utilisés pour l'application de revêtement sont indiquées à la Figure 1.
Les risques significatifs spécifiques relatifs à l’utilisation de ces machines pour les produits pharmaceutiques et alimentaires ne sont pas traités dans la présente norme.
Les risques significatifs spécifiques relatifs aux opérations de séchage des cabines combinées d’application par pulvérisation et de séchage ne sont pas traités dans la présente norme, mais dans l’EN 1539:2015.
La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique pas aux :
-   espaces pour l’application de produits de revêtement organiques constitué uniquement d'une paroi d'extraction ;
-   plates-formes attachées aux cabines d’application par pulvérisation (par exemple, pour les travaux de retouche) ;
-   cabine de projection de flock (voir l'EN 50223:2015) ;
-   cabines d’application par pulvérisation avec un flux d’air d’une ouverture verticale vers une extraction horizontale ou d’une ouverture horizontale vers une extraction verticale.
La présente Norme européenne n’est pas applicable aux machines fabriquées avant la date de sa publication en tant que Norme européenne.

Kabine za nanašanje organskih premazov - Varnostne zahteve

Ta evropski standard opisuje vsa večja tveganja, nevarne razmere in nevarne dogodke (glej točko 4) za kabine za nanašanje organskih tekočih in praškastih premazov, kadar se uporabljajo v skladu s svojim namenom in pod pogoji, ki jih predvideva proizvajalec, vključno s pogoji pričakovane nepravilne uporabe.
OPOMBA 1:   Za klasifikacijo kabin glej točko 3.
OPOMBA 2:   Za elemente kabin glej točko 3.
Vmesniki med kabinami in drugo opremo, ki se uporablja za nanašanje premazov, so prikazani na sliki 1.
Ta standard ne zajema posebnih znatnih tveganj, povezanih z uporabo teh strojev z živili in farmacevtskimi izdelki.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za:
–   območja nanašanja (prostori za nanašanje organskih premazov, ki so omejeni samo z eno stransko steno, ki se uporablja za odvajanje izpustov pri prezračevanju);
–   platforme, pritrjene na kabine (npr. za nanašanje premazov z dotikom);
–   stene kabin, če so del objekta;
OPOMBA:   Za integracijo sten v kabino lahko veljajo nacionalni predpisi.
–   kabine za nanos kosmičev (glej EN 50223).
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za stroje, ki so bili izdelani, preden je bil objavljen kot standard EN.
