Conveyor belts for general purpose use - Electrical and flammability safety requirements
This European Standard specifies electrical and flammability safety requirements for
general purpose conveyor belts not intended for use in underground installations
and a means of categorizing conveyor belts in terms of the level of safety sought in
their end use application. This European Standard does not provide electrical safety
requirements for volume resistance which may be measured by the methods in EN
1637 and which is relevant to some types of light conveyor belts.
NOTE Directive 94/9/EC concerning equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres can be applicable to the type of machine or equipment covered by this European Standard. The present standard is not intended to provide means of complying with the essential health and safety requirements of Directive 94/9/EC.
Fördergurte für allgemeine Anwendung - Elektrische und brandtechnische Sicherheitsanforderungen
Diese Europäische Norm legt elektrische und brandtechnische Anforderungen an Förder-gurte und die Klassifizierung von Fördergurten hinsichtlich der Sicherheit bei der allgemei-nen An-wen-dung fest und gilt nicht für den Einsatz unter Tage. Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Sicherheitsanforderungen für den elektrischen Durchg-angswiderstand, der mit den in EN 1637 genannten Verfahren gemessen werden kann und der für einige Typen leichter Fördergurte von Bedeutung ist.
ANMERKUNG Richtlinie 94/9/EC, die Ausrüstung und Schutzsysteme für den Einsatz in möglicherweise explosiven Atmosphären betreffen, kann anwendbar sein auf den Maschinentyp oder die Ausrüstung, die durch diese Europäische Norm abgedeckt wird. Es ist nicht beabsichtigt, mit der vorliegenden Norm Mittel zu beschaffen, um die wichtigen Gesundheits- und Sicherheitsanforderungen der Richtlinie 94/9/EU zu erfüllen.
Courroies transporteuses à usage général - Prescriptions de sécurité électrique et protection contre l'inflammabilité
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences de sécurité électrique et les exigences en matière de protection contre l'inflammabilité relatives aux courroies transporteuses à usage général, qui ne sont pas destinées à être utilisées dans des installations souterraines ainsi qu'une méthode de classement des courroies transporteuses en termes de niveau de sécurité recherché lors de l'application finale. La présente norme européenne ne fournit pas d'exigences de sécurité électrique pour la résistance volumique qui peut être mesurée selon les méthodes de l'EN 1637 et qui concerne certains types de courroies transporteuses légères.
NOTE La Directive 94/9/CE concernant les appareils et les systèmes de protection destinés à être utilisés en atmosphères potentiellement explosibles peut être applicable au type de machine ou d'appareil traité dans la présente Norme européenne. La présente norme n'est pas destiné à fournir un moyen de se conformer aux exigences essentielles en ce qui concerne la sécurité et la santé de la Directive 94/9/CE.

Introduction
During the preparation of this European Standard, the hazards which have been
identified as being directly related to the use of conveyor belts are:
a) hazards associated with the discharge of static electrical energy;
b) hazards associated with the impingement of small naked flames on the cover
and/or carcass of a conveyor belt at rest;
c) hazards caused by the stalling of a conveyor belt and the continued operation of
the driving mechanism causing localized heating of the conveyor belt through contact
with the driving drum or cylinder or some other source of frictional heat;
d) hazards caused by the propagation of a flame along a belt which has been
exposed to a relatively high energy source such as a fire
