Introduction
The Amendment of the Machinery Directive considers also the environmental requirements of the
equipment for the pesticide application (PAE).
To allow to fulfil these requirements, the harmonized standard series EN 16119 has been produced.
However, these standards do not include the dusters that are widely distributed in Europe and abroad.
This document defines the environmental requirements of the dusters and the methods to measure them.
It will help duster manufacturers in fulfilling the environmental requirements mentioned in the
Amendment of the Machinery Directive.
This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100. This document is of relevance, in
particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market players with regard to
machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous
situations or hazardous events are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document. 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.
