Conveyor belts for use in underground installations - Electrical and flammability safety requirements

This European Standard specifies electrical and flammability safety requirements for conveyor belts intended for use in underground installations, in the presence of flammable or non-flammable atmospheres.
Conveyor belts covered by this European Standard and intended for use in flammable atmospheres are intended for use on conveyor belt installations (machinery in mines). The belt is a component, which will be incorporated into the conveyor, which is an equipment of Group I, Category M2, as defined in 3.2.2 of EN 13463-1:2001.
This European Standard is not applicable to light conveyor belts as described in EN 873 nor is it applicable to conveyor belts which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
This European Standard deals with those significant hazards detailed in A.1.
Attention is drawn to Annexes ZA and ZB.
NOTE   A summary of the requirements of this European Standard is given in Table 1.

Fördergurte für die Verwendung unter Tage - Elektrische und brandtechnische Sicherheitsanforderungen

Diese Europäische Norm legt elektrische und brandtechnische Sicherheitsanforderungen für Fördergurte für den Einsatz unter Tage bei entflammbarer und nicht entflammbarer Atmosphäre fest.
Fördergurte, die unter diese Europäische Norm fallen, sind vorgesehen für den Gebrauch in Förderanlagen beim Einsatz in entflammbaren Atmosphären (Bergwerken). Der Gurt ist eine Teil der Fördereinrichtung, die eine Ausrüstung nach Gruppe I, Kategorie M2, wie in EN 13463-1:2001, 3.2.2, bestimmt, darstellt.
Diese Europäische Norm ist nicht anwendbar auf in EN 873 beschriebene leichte Fördergurte als auch auf Fördergurte, die vor dem Datum der Veröffentlichung dieses Dokumentes durch CEN hergestellt wurden.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt die in A.1 aufgeführten signifikanten Gefahren.
Aufmerksamkeit wird auf die Anhänge ZA und ZB gelenkt.
ANMERKUNG   Tabelle 1 gibt eine Zusammenfassung der Anforderungen dieser Europäischen Norm.

Courroies transporteuses pour usage dans les installations souterraines - Exigences de sécurité électrique et protection contre l'inflammabilité

La présente Norme Européenne spécifie des exigences en matière de sécurité électrique et de protection contre
l’inflammabilité, applicables aux courroies transporteuses destinées à être utilisées dans des installations
souterraines, en atmosphères inflammables ou non inflammables.
Les courroies transporteuses couvertes par la présente Norme européenne et destinées à être utilisées en
atmosphères inflammables sont destinées aux installations à courroies transporteuses (machines dans les mines).
La courroie est un composant, qui est incorporée dans le convoyeur, qui est lui-même un équipement du Groupe 1,
Catégorie M2, tel que défini en 3.2.2 de l’EN 13463-1:2001.
La présente Norme européenne n’est pas applicable aux courroies transporteuses légères telles que décrites dans
l’EN 873, ni aux courroies qui ont été fabriquées avant la publication du présent document par le CEN.
La présente Norme européenne traite des phénomènes dangereux significatifs détaillés en A.1.
L’attention est attirée sur les Annexes ZA et ZB.
NOTE Un résumé des exigences de la présente Norme européenne est donné dans le Tableau 1.
