Cranes - Loader cranes

Cranes - Loader cranes

This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for design, calculation, examinations and tests of hydraulic powered loader cranes and their mountings onto vehicles or static foundations. Note: There are in the process of development a number of standards on design and other matters that will require incorporation into this standard when they are completed. This standard does not apply to loader cranes used on board ships and does not specify requirements for the lifting of persons with loader cranes. The hazards covered by this EN are identified in clause 4.

Krane - Ladekrane

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Mindestanforderungen für Gestaltung, Berechnung, Untersuchungen und Prüfungen von hydraulisch angetriebenen Ladekranen und ihre Montage auf Fahrzeuge oder ortsfeste Unterkonstruktion fest. Anmerkung: Eine Reihe von Normen bezüglich Gestaltung und anderer Punkte befindet sich im Entwicklungsstadium; dies wird deren Einbeziehung nach abgeschlossener Bearbeitung erforderlich machen. Diese Norm gilt nicht für Ladekrane auf Schiffen und legt nicht die Anforderungen für das Heben von Personen mit Ladekranen fest.

Appareils de levage à charge suspendue - Grues de chargement

La présente norme européenne spécifie les exigences minimales relatives à la conception, au calcul, aux examens et aux essais des grues de chargement hydrauliques et à leur montage sur des véhicules ou massifs pour montage poste fixe. Note: Un certain nombre de normes relatives à la conception et à d'autres sujets sont en cours d'élaboration et devront être incorporées dans cette norme lorsqu'elles seront terminées. La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux grues de chargement utilisées à bord des navires et ne spécifie pas les exigences de transport de personnes à l'aide de grues de chargement.
