EN 12325-2:1999 - Overview

EN 12325-2:1999 (CEN) specifies the minimum performances and technical characteristics for centre pivot and moving lateral irrigation systems. The standard sets a baseline quality level that manufacturers, designers and procurers can refer to when assessing fixed and movable centre pivots and the various categories of moving laterals. It covers mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and agronomic aspects of machine performance. Safety considerations and environmental impact issues are outside its scope (see Related Standards).

Key topics and technical requirements

This part of EN 12325 focuses on performance and technical characteristics rather than test procedures or safety rules. Main technical topics include:

  • Mechanical characteristics - structural and drive components, mobility and robustness expectations for pivots and moving laterals.
  • Electrical aspects - power supply, control systems and electrical components relevant to reliable operation.
  • Hydraulic performance - pumping, flow distribution and pressure-related characteristics affecting system output.
  • Agronomic characteristics - application uniformity, distribution considerations and conditions relevant to crop irrigation.
  • Minimum performance level - a defined quality baseline manufacturers shall meet when designing or marketing equipment.

Note: The standard defines the areas to be addressed but does not prescribe specific safety measures (see EN 909) or environmental impact rules.

Practical applications

EN 12325-2 is practical for:

  • Manufacturers - to design and declare products that meet a recognized European baseline for centre pivot and moving lateral equipment.
  • Farmers and agricultural contractors - to compare equipment performance and suitability for crop irrigation needs.
  • Engineers and system designers - to specify components and system layouts that meet minimum performance expectations.
  • Procurement officers and certifiers - to use as a reference when drafting contracts, specifications and acceptance criteria.
  • Testing laboratories and consultants - to evaluate mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and agronomic attributes against the standard’s scope.

This standard supports consistent product quality, clearer market communication and informed equipment selection for irrigation projects.

Who should use it

  • Equipment manufacturers and suppliers
  • Agricultural engineers and irrigation designers
  • Farm operators and irrigation managers
  • Public authorities and procurement teams
  • Testing and certification bodies

Related standards

  • EN 909 - addresses safety requirements for irrigation machinery (EN 12325-2 does not cover safety).
  • National adoptions (example: SIST EN 12325-2:2000) and ICS classification 65.060.35 (Irrigation and drainage equipment).
