The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this standard.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the other
standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C
standard.
While producing this standard, it was assumed that:
a) only competent persons operate the machine;
b) components without specific requirements are:
1) designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation codes, including all
failure modes;
2) of suitable mechanical and electrical construction;
3) made of materials with adequate strength and of suitable quality;
c) harmful materials, such as asbestos are not used as part of the machine;
d) components are kept in good repair and working order, so that the required characteristics remain
despite wear;
e) by design of the load bearing elements, safe operation of the machine is ensured for loading ranging
from zero to 100 % of the rated possibilities;
f) discussions have taken place between the user and the supplier concerning particular conditions for
the use and places of use of the machinery;
g) working area is adequately lit;
h) places of installation allow a safe use of the machine.
1 Scope
This document is applicable to all types of Storage and Retrieval (S/R) machines, restricted to the rails
on which they travel within and outside the aisles for the storage and retrieval of unit loads and/or long
goods such as bar materials and/or for order picking or similar duties. These machines embody lifting
means along a mast and may include lateral handling facilities. Also included is the transfer equipment
used to change between aisles. Control of machines may range from manual to fully automatic.
S/R-machine-related satellite vehicles according to definition 3.15 are included as a load-handling-device
(LHD).
References in this standard to racking, buildings and systems only apply where it is necessary to assess
the hazards and risks at their interfaces with S/R machines.
This document deals with all significant hazards relevant to rail dependent storage and retrieval
equipment, when they are used under the conditions intended by the manufacturer including reasonably
foreseeable misuse (see Annex F “List of significant hazards”).
This document is applicable to machines and equipment that are manufactured after the date of issue of
this document. A transition period of 12 months is proposed.
Figures of examples of machines and transfer equipment to which this standard applies are shown in
Annex A.
Safety requirements and/or measures in this standard apply to equipment used under indoor conditions.
However, additional risk assessments and safety measures need to be considered for uses in severe
conditions, e.g. extremely high temperatures, loads, the nature of which could lead to a dangerous
situation (e.g. especially brittle loads, explosives), earthquake effects and also contact with foodstuff.
This document also deals with the technical requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
