Safety of machinery - Guidance for the drafting of the noise clauses of safety standards
This European Standard gives guidance on how to deal with noise in type C-Standards where noise is identified as a significant hazard (see 4.5 of EN 292-1:1991). As such, this European Standard supplements the rules given in EN 414:1992. The exact way that noise is dealt with for a particular type of machinery will depend on the structure of the type C-Standards and is the responsibility of the type C-Standard Technical Committees.
Sicherheit von Maschinen - Anleitung für die Abfassung der Abschnitte über Geräusche in Sicherheitsnormen
Diese Europäische Norm gibt eine Anleitung für, wie Lärm in Typ-C-Normen, in denen er als eine bedeutende Gefährdung bezeichnet wird (siehe 4.5 von EN 292-1:1991), behandelt wird. Als solche ergänzt diese Europäische Norm die in EN 414:1992 aufgestellten Regeln. Die genaue Art und Weise, in der Lärm bei einer bestimmten Maschine behandelt wird, ist abhängig vom Aufbau der betreffenden Typ-C-Norm und liegt in der Verantwortung des für die Typ-C-Norm zuständigen Technischen Komitees.

La présente norme européenne spécifie la manière de traiter le bruit dans les normes de type C, lorsque celui-ci est identifié comme risque significatif (voir 4.5 de l'EN 292-1:1991). La présente norme européenne complète ainsi les règles fournies par l'EN 414:1992. La manière précise de traiter la question du bruit pour un type particulier de machines dépend de la structure des normes C et relève de la responsabilité des Comités Techniques chargés d'élaborer ces normes.

This document specifies principles for the design and selection (independent of the nature of the energy source) of interlocking devices associated with guards and provides guidance on measures to minimize the possibility of defeat of interlocking devices in a reasonably foreseeable manner.
This document covers principles for the design, selection and application of the following:
— parts of the guards which actuate interlocking devices;
— trapped key interlocking devices and systems for machinery applications.
NOTE ISO 14120 specifies general requirements for the design and construction of guards provided primarily to protect persons from mechanical hazards. The processing of the signal from the interlocking device to stop the machine and prevent unexpected start up is covered in ISO 14118, ISO 13849-1 and IEC 62061.

This document specifies requirements for the positioning and dimensioning of safeguards with respect to the approach of the human body or its parts towards hazard(s) within the intended span-of-control as follows:
— the position and dimension of the detection zone(s) of ESPE and pressure-sensitive mats and pressure-sensitive floors;
— the position of two-hand control devices and single control devices;

This document also specifies requirements for the positioning of safety-related manual control devices (SRMCD) with respect to the approach of the human body or its parts from within the safeguard space relative to:
— the position and dimension of the detection zone(s) of ESPE and pressure-sensitive mats and pressure-sensitive floors; and
— the position and dimension of interlocking guards.
When evaluating the ability of the human body or its parts to access SRMCD from within the intended safeguarded space, the requirements of this document are also applicable to determine the dimensions of safeguard(s). Approaches such as running, jumping or falling, are not considered in this document.
NOTE 1 The values for approach speeds (walking speed and upper limb movement) in this document are time tested and proven in practical experience.
NOTE 2 Other types of approach can result in approach speeds that are higher or lower than those defined in this document.
This document applies to safeguards used on machinery for the protection of persons 14 years and older.
Safeguards considered in this document include:
a) electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) such as:
— active opto-electronic protective devices (AOPDs) (see IEC 61496-2);
— AOPDs responsive to diffuse reflection that have one or more detection zone(s) specified in two dimensions (AOPDDRs-2D) (see IEC 61496-3);
