Plastics and rubber machines - Size reduction machines - Part 4: Safety requirements for agglomerators

This European Standard specifies the essential safety requirements applicable to the design and construction of agglomerators used to densify plastic scrap, reducing its size and/or volume.
The limits of the agglomerator are as follows:
-   the outer edge of the feed opening, or outer edge of the fixed feed device (e.g. hopper) or the interface between the feed system (e.g. conveyor) and the agglomerator chamber and
-   the outer edge of the discharge opening of the agglomerator chamber or the interface between the agglomerator chamber and the discharge system.
Only the significant hazards listed in Clause 4 and dealt with in Clause 5 are subject to this European Standard.
This European Standard does not deal with hazards caused by processing materials (such as Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and Polyurethane (PU) foam) which, when heated, may lead to a risk of fire and release of toxic gases.
This European Standard does not deal with hazards caused by upstream and/or downstream equipment.
This European Standard is not applicable to agglomerators manufactured before the date of its approval as EN

Kunststoff- und Gummimaschinen - Zerkleinerungsmaschinen - Teil 4: Sicherheitsanforderungen für Agglomeratoren

Diese Europäische Norm legt die wesentlichen Sicherheitsanforderungen fest, die bei Konzipierung und Bau von Agglomeratoren anzuwenden sind, die eingesetzt werden, um Kunststoffabfälle zu verdichten, ihre Größe und/oder ihr Volumen zu reduzieren.
Die Grenzen des Agglomerators sind wie folgt:
-   die Außenkante der Beschickungsöffnung oder die Außenkante der fest angebrachten Beschickungs-einrichtung (z. B. Trichter) oder die Schnittstelle zwischen dem Beschickungssystem (z. B. Förderband) und der Agglomeratorkammer und
-   die Außenkante der Austragsöffnung der Agglomeratorkammer oder die Schnittstelle zwischen der Agglomeratorkammer und dem Austragssystem.
Nur die in Abschnitt 4 angegebenen und in Abschnitt 5 behandelten signifikanten Gefährdungen sind Gegen-stand dieser Europäischen Norm.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt nicht die Gefährdungen durch die Verarbeitung von Materialien (wie expandiertes Polystyrol (EPS) und Polyurethanschaum (PU)), die, wenn sie erhitzt werden, zu Brandgefahr und Freisetzen toxischer Gase führen können.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt nicht die Gefährdungen, die durch vorgeschaltete und/oder nachgeschal-tete Ausrüstungen hervorgerufen werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Agglomeratoren, die vor dem Annahmedatum als EN hergestellt wurden.

Machines pour les matières plastiques et le caoutchouc - Machines à fragmenter - Partie 4: Prescriptions de sécurité relatives aux agglomérateurs

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les prescriptions essentielles de sécurité relatives à la conception et à la construction des agglomérateurs utilisés pour densifier les déchets de matières plastiques en réduisant leur taille et/ou leur volume.
Les limites de l’agglomérateur sont les suivantes :
   le bord extérieur de l’ouverture d’alimentation ou le bord extérieur du dispositif fixe d’alimentation (par exemple la trémie), ou l’interface entre le système d’alimentation (par exemple le convoyeur) et la chambre d’agglomération ; et
   le bord extérieur de l’ouverture d’évacuation de la chambre d’agglomération ou l’interface entre la chambre d’agglomération et le système d’évacuation.
Seuls les phénomènes dangereux significatifs énumérés à l'Article 4 et traités à l'Article 5 sont couverts par la présente Norme européenne.
NOTE   La présente Norme européenne ne traite pas des phénomènes dangereux engendrés par la transformation de matériaux (tels que le polystyrène expansé (EPS) ou les mousses de polyuréthanne (PU)), qui, lorsqu’ils sont chauffés, peuvent engendrer des risques d’incendie et d’émission de gaz toxiques.
La présente Norme européenne ne traite pas des phénomènes dangereux engendrés par les équipements amont et/ou aval.
La présente Norme européenne n’est pas applicable aux agglomérateurs qui ont été fabriqués avant sa date de publication comme EN.
