prEN 1012-3

Compressors and vacuum pumps - Safety requirements - Part 3: Process compressors

This part of EN 1012 is applicable to compressors having an operating pressure greater than 0,5 bar and designed to utilise all gases other than air, nitrogen or inert gases which are covered in part 1. The standard lists the significant hazards associated with compressors and specifies safety requirements applicable to the design, installation, operation, maintenance and dismantling of compressors during their foreseeable lifetime and subsequent disposal. This part of EN 1012 includes under the general term compressors, those machines which comprise; - the compressor itself - a prime mover - any component or device supplied which is necessary for safe operation of the compressor. In addition it applies to partly completed compressors having a compressor in combination with some of these components as well as compressor assemblies operating in combination. Excluded are refrigerant compressors used in refrigerating systems or heat pumps as defined in EN 378-1.

Kompressoren und Vakuumpumpen - Sicherheitsanforderungen - Teil 3: Prozesskompressoren

Dieser Teil von EN 1012 gilt für alle Kompressoren, die einen Arbeitsdruck von mehr als 0,5 bar haben und so konstruiert sind, dass sie alle Gase mit Ausnahme von Luft, Stickstoff oder Inertgasen, die durch Teil 1 abgedeckt sind, benutzt werden können. Die Norm listet die von Kompressoren ausgehenden wesentlichen Gefährdungen auf und legt Sicherheitsanforderungen fest, die sich auf die Konstruktion, das Aufstellen, den Betrieb, die Wartung und das Demontieren von Kompressoren während ihrer voraussichtlichen Lebensdauer und ihrer darauf folgenden Entsorgung beziehen.
Dieser Teil von EN 1012 enthält unter dem allgemeinen Begriff Kompressoren Maschinen, die Folgendes umfassen:
   den Kompressor selbst;
   die Antriebsmaschine;
   alle mitgelieferten Bauteile oder Geräte, die für den sicheren Betrieb des Kompressors notwendig sind.
Zusätzlich gilt dieser Teil von EN 1012 sowohl für teilweise zusammengesetzte Kompressoren, die einen Kompressor in Kombination mit einigen dieser Bauteile umfassen, als auch für Kompressoreinheiten, die in Kombination betrieben werden.
Ausgenommen sind in Kälteanlagen oder Wärmepumpen verwendete Kältemittel Verdichter, die in EN 378 1 festgelegt sind.

Compresseurs et pompes à vide - Prescriptions de sécurité - Partie 3 : Compresseurs de procédé

La présente partie de l’EN 1012 s’applique aux compresseurs ayant une pression de fonctionnement supérieure à 0,5 bar et conçus pour utiliser tous les gaz autres que l’air, l’azote ou les gaz inertes ; lesquels sont couverts par la partie 1. La norme répertorie les phénomènes dangereux significatifs associés aux compresseurs et précise les prescriptions de sécurité applicables à la conception, l’installation, le fonctionnement, la maintenance et le démontage des compresseurs au cours de leur vie prévue et de leur mise au rebut consécutive.
Sous le terme général compresseurs, la présente partie de l’EN 1012 comprend les machines incluant :
   le compresseur en lui-même,
   un moteur d’entraînement,
   tout composant ou dispositif fourni nécessaire pour une utilisation sûre du compresseur.
De plus, elle s’applique aussi aux compresseurs partiellement complets disposant d’un compresseur en association avec un ou plusieurs de ces composants ainsi qu’aux assemblages de compresseurs fonctionnant en combinaison.
Les compresseurs frigorigènes employés dans les systèmes de réfrigération ou les pompes à chaleur tels que les définit l’EN 378-1 sont eux exclus.
