Overview
EN 16228-3:2014+A1:2021 - Drilling and foundation equipment - Safety - Part 3: Horizontal directional drilling equipment (HDD) - is a CEN Type C standard that specifies safety requirements and protective measures specific to horizontal directional drills. Used together with EN 16228-1:2014+A1:2021 (common requirements), this part covers significant hazards associated with HDD machines over their whole life, including foreseeable misuse. The standard supports conformity with machinery directives (see Annex ZA) and aligns with the risk-based approach of EN ISO 12100.
Key Topics
The standard focuses on machine safety elements unique to HDD and supplements the common rules in Part 1. Major technical topics include:
- Stability and ground pressure considerations for safe setup and operation
- Braking systems (travel and slewing) and immobilisation systems
- Winches, draw-works, ropes, chains and related guarding requirements
- Indicating devices for inclination and other operator information systems
- Operator positions, cabins and FOPS (Falling Object Protection)
- Access, servicing and maintenance points to reduce intervention risk
- Retrieval, transportation, lifting and towing of HDD units and parts
- Control devices and protective measures for stopping rotation/feed
- Warning and indicating devices, including signage and audible alarms
- Guards, foot barriers and danger-zone controls (rear of machine, breakout clamps, drill frame)
- Noise: test code, measurement and documentation (Annex B)
- Verification and fitness-for-purpose testing procedures
- Information for use: operator’s manual, warning signs and symbols (Annex A)
Applications
EN 16228-3 is practical for:
- Manufacturers and designers of HDD rigs to design compliant machines and prepare technical files
- Safety engineers and risk assessors conducting machine-specific hazard assessments
- Compliance and certification bodies verifying conformity with EU machinery requirements and CE marking
- Procurement and fleet managers specifying safe HDD equipment for civil works, utilities installation, and trenchless pipe/cable installation
- Operators and maintenance teams using the standard to create or review operator manuals, maintenance procedures and onsite safety controls
- Training providers building curricula for safe HDD operation and emergency procedures

Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
When provisions of this type C document are different from those, which are stated in type A or B
documents, the provisions of this type C document take precedence over the provisions of the other
documents, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C
document.
1 Scope
This European Standard, together with part 1, deals with all significant hazards for horizontal
directional drilling equipment (HDD) when they are used as intended and under the conditions of
misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the
machine (see Clause 4).
The requirements of this part are complementary to the common requirements formulated in !EN
16228-1:2014+A1:2021".
This document does not repeat the requirements from !EN 16228-1:2014+A1:2021", but adds or
replaces the requirements for application for horizontal directional drills.
A machine is considered a horizontal directional drill if it is designed to drill in a shallow arc for the
installation of pipes, conduits, and cables and typically has a drill string entry angle of less than 45°
relative to the operating surface of the earth.

NOTE Terminology for horizontal directional drills is specified in ISO 21467.
3.1
horizontal directional drill
machine that uses a steerable cutting head attached to the end of a drill string for creating a bore
through the earth in a horizontal direction
Note 1 to entry: Drilling can include fluid injection through the drill string to the cutting head, tracking of the
bore by use of sensors or a transponder near the cutting head and subsequent enlargement of the bore by back-
reaming.
3.2
drill string for HDD
length of rods joined together which transmit forces from the drill frame to the cutting head or back-
reamer that cuts the earth and which is also used to rotate the cutting head to position it for steering
Note 1 to entry: This terms is herafter referred to as "drill string".
3.3
drill frame
structure on the horizontal directional drill that transmits rotational and linear forces to the drill string
3.4
ground fixation device

3.5
exit side
location remote from the base machine where the drill string exits the ground
) This document is impacted by Amendment 1 published in 2001.

process of enlarging the bore by pulling back a tool of larger diameter than that previously used to form
the bore
3.7
back-reamer

The standard EN 16228-3:2014+A1:2021 is a critical document in enhancing safety protocols in the use of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) equipment. Its scope is dedicated to identifying and addressing significant hazards associated with HDD equipment, ensuring that such machines are utilized as intended while taking into account foreseeable conditions of misuse. This comprehensive approach underscores the importance of safety throughout the entire lifecycle of the machinery, making it a vital addition to the regulations governing drilling and foundation equipment. One of the strengths of this standard is its complementary nature to EN 16228-1:2014+A1:2021. Instead of reiterating the common requirements, EN 16228-3 introduces specific requirements that are unique to horizontal directional drilling operations. This focused approach enables manufacturers and users of HDD equipment to implement tailored safety measures while maintaining compliance with broader safety standards in the drilling industry. The standard's well-defined parameters for horizontal directional drills, which require a drill string entry angle of less than 45° relative to the operating surface, illustrate its relevance in practical applications. This operational guideline helps ensure that users are fully aware of the specific characteristics and design elements of HDD equipment, enabling safer and more efficient operations. Overall, EN 16228-3:2014+A1:2021 effectively addresses the unique safety concerns associated with horizontal directional drilling equipment. Its precise scope, robust requirements, and alignment with overarching safety standards make it an essential reference for manufacturers, operators, and safety professionals in the field. The focus on both the intended use and foreseeable misuse scenarios adds an additional layer of safety, reinforcing its relevance in the ongoing efforts to promote safe practices within the drilling industry.
