Aircraft ground support equipment - Specific requirements - Part 9: Container/Pallet loaders

This document specifies the technical requirements to minimise the hazards listed in Clause 4 which can arise during the commissioning, operation and maintenance of container/pallet loaders when carried out in accordance with the specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorised representative. It also takes into account some performance requirements recognised as essential by authorities, aircraft and ground support equipment (GSE) manufacturers as well as airlines and handling agencies.
This document applies to:
-   Container/Pallet loader (self-propelled) single platform;
-   Container/Pallet loader (self-propelled) two platforms;
-   Container/Pallet loader/transporter (self-propelled);
-   Container/Pallet loader/transfer platform (towed).
Examples of some of the different types of loaders are shown in Annex B.
This document does not establish requirements for noise and vibration.
Noise and vibration are dealt with respectively in prEN 1915-4 and prEN 1915-3.
This standard does not deal with hazards in respect to a standard automotive chassis and from other vehicles on the apron.
This Part of EN 12312 is not applicable to container/pallet loaders which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
NOTE   Certain measurements have been given in imperial units (in parentheses) following the metric measurements since the containers/pallets to be handled are based mainly on the imperial system.
This part of EN 12312 is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1915-1, EN 1915-2, EN 1915-3 (for vehicles) and EN 1915-4.

4 Introduction This document specifies health and safety requirements, as well as some functional and performance requirements for container/pallet loaders intended for loading/unloading of unit loads with the exception of bulk material for all aircraft types commonly in service in civil air transport. The minimum essential criteria are considered to be of primary importance in providing safe, serviceable, economical and practical container/pallet loaders. Deviations from the recommended criteria should occur only after careful consideration, extensive testing, risk assessment and thorough service evaluation have shown alternative methods or conditions to be satisfactory. This document is a Type C standard as stated in !EN ISO 12100". The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. 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. For information, a summary of equipment functional design requirements covered by International Standards, e.g. ISO 6967 and ISO 6968, and IATA Airport Handling Manual are given in Annex A.
