-   operation in severe conditions (e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: temperatures below -10 °C and above +40 °C, corrosive environment, tropical environment);
-   operation subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres, contaminating environments);
-   static electricity problems;
-   transportation of passengers, lifting of persons;
-   loading by crane;
-   loading by a satellite vehicle;
-   containers other than those manufactured according to EN 840, EN 12574 and EN 13071;
-   handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot wastes, acids and bases, radioactive materials, especially fragile loads, explosives);
-   hazards occurring during construction, transportation, commissioning, decommissioning;
-   hazards occurring in relation to traffic on public roads;
-   wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h;
-   direct contact with foodstuffs;

Foreword
This European Standard (EN 1501-2:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 183 “Waste
Management”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2005, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn
at the latest by November 2005.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this European
Standard.
The minimum essential criteria are considered to be of primary importance in providing safe, serviceable,
economical, and practical side loaded refuse collection vehicles.
This European Standard is the second one of the series of co-ordinated standards of EN 1501 about “Refuse
collection vehicles and their associated lifting devices” comprising the following parts:
 Part 1: Rear-end loaded refuse collection vehicles
 Part 2: Side loaded refuse collection vehicles
 Part 3: Front loaded refuse collection vehicles
 Part 4: Noise measurement protocol for refuse collection vehicles
 Part 5: Lifting devices for refuse collection vehicles (in preparation)
 Part 6: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) (in preparation)
 Amendment EN 1501-1/A1: Footboards
This European Standard is the second one of a series of standards dealing with specification, design, safety
and testing of side loaded refuse collection vehicles (side loaded RCVs) and associated lifting devices.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland
and United Kingdom.
Introduction
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100-1.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are
indicated in the scope of this European Standard.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines
that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
The series of standards should be read in conjunction with the documents developed by CEN/TC 183/WG 1
for mobile waste containers (series of standards EN 840), for stationary waste containers (series of standards
EN 12574) and for selective collection containers emptied by the top (Type B of EN 13071) that are
compatible with the lifting devices specified in these standards.
While producing this European Standard it was assumed that:
 only persons who have been appropriately trained will operate the side loaded RCV;
 components without specific requirements are designed in accordance with the usual engineering
practice and calculation codes, including all failure modes, of sound mechanical and electrical
construction and made of materials with adequate strength and of suitable quality;
 harmful materials, such as asbestos, are not used as part of the machine;
 components are kept in good repair and working order, so that the required characteristics remain despite
wear within the specified limits as stated in the maintenance manual;
 by design of the load bearing elements, a safe operation of the machine is assured for loading ranging
from zero to 100 % of the rated capacities and during the tests;
 the equipment shall be designed for operation with an ambient temperature between -10 °C and +40 °C;
 negotiation occurs between the manufacturer and the user concerning the specific uses and places of
use of the machinery;
 the locations for use of the side loaded RCV are safe (e.g. tarmac road).
The standard is designed for careful consideration by designers, manufacturers, suppliers and users of side
loaded RCVs.
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the technical requirements to minimise the hazards listed in Clause 5 which
can arise during the operation and the maintenance of side loaded refuse collection vehicles (side loaded
RCVs) used for the collection, transportation and unloading of solid wastes and as intended by the

This European Standard deals with:
 side loaded refuse collection vehicles as defined in Clauses 3 and 4;
 lifting devices for side loaded refuse collection vehicles.
Examples for basic types of side loaded refuse collection vehicles are given in Annex B.
This European Standard does not establish the additional requirements for:
 design and equipment of the chassis, considered as meeting all road traffic requirements;
 operation in severe conditions (e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: temperatures below –
10 °C and above +40 °C, corrosive environment, tropical environment);
 operation subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres, contaminating environments);
 static electricity problems;
 transportation of passengers, lifting of persons;
 loading by crane;
 loading by a satellite vehicle;
 containers other than those manufactured according to EN 840, EN 12574 and EN 13071;
 handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot wastes, acids and
bases, radioactive materials, especially fragile loads, explosives);
 hazards occurring during construction, transportation, commissioning, decommissioning;
 hazards occurring in relation to traffic on public roads;
 wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h;
 direct contact with foodstuffs;
 hazards due to the noise of the side loaded RCV.
