EN 16228-1:2014/FprA1

Drilling and foundation equipment - Safety - Part 1: Common requirements

This European Standard specifies the common safety requirements for drilling and foundation equipment.
Part 1 of this European Standard deals with the significant hazards common to drilling and foundation equipment (see Annex A), when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (transport, assembly, dismantling, equipment in service and out of service, maintenance, moving on site, storage, disabling and scrapping).
NOTE 1   The requirements specified in this part of the standard are common to two or more families of drilling and foundation equipment.
This document gives safety requirements for all types of drilling and foundation equipment and is intended to be used in conjunction with one of parts 2 to 7. These machine specific parts do not repeat the requirements from part 1 but supplement or modify the requirements for the type of drilling and foundation equipment in question.
For multipurpose machinery, the parts of the standard that cover the specific functions and applications are used, e.g. a drilling machine also used as a piling machine will use the relevant requirements of EN 16228 parts 1, 2, and 4.
The following machines are excluded from the scope of this standard:
-   tunnelling machines, unshielded tunnel boring machines and rodless shaft boring machines for rock according to prEN 16191;
-   raise boring machines;
-   drill rigs used in oil and gas industry.
NOTE 2   Specific requirements for offshore applications are not covered by this European Standard.
Where a drilling or foundation equipment of fixed configuration that is not intended to be separated is assembled using a carrier based on earth-moving equipment, agricultural equipment, or a crane, then the completed assembly will conform to the requirements specified in this drilling and foundation equipment standard.
Drilling and foundation equipment within the scope of EN 16228 parts 1 to 6 may include interchangeable auxiliary equipment within the scope of EN 16228 part 7, either as an integral part of its construction or as interchangeably fitted equipment.
If drilling and foundation equipment is intended to be used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, additional requirements will need to be met which are not covered by this standard.
Modification to Clause 1:
In the fifth paragraph, last sentence delete the final punctuation of the third item and add the following text: ";
-   specialized mining machinery and equipment for opencast mining (e.g. rock drill rigs, blast hole drills, jumbos) (under the scope of CEN/TC 196);
-   all underground mining machinery and equipment for the extraction of solid mineral substances (e. g. rock drill rigs, raise boring machines, shaft boring machines, mining auger boring machines) as well as machinery and equipment for underground mine development (under the scope of CEN/TC 196);
-   core drilling machines on stand (covered by EN 12348);
-   hand-held machines (in particular machines covered by ISO 11148-5).".
In the sixth paragraph, first sentence, replace "will conform to the requirements specified in this drilling and foundation equipment" with "is covered by this".
Last paragraph, replace with the following text:
"If drilling and foundation equipment is intended to be used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, or in case of lightning risk, additional requirements will need to be met which are not covered by this document.
This document is not applicable to drilling and foundation equipment manufactured before the date of its publication.".

17 Modification to 5.15.2, Required performance levels for safety related parts of
control systems
Replace the entire subclause by the following:
“The design of the safety-related parts of control system shall meet the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1.
EN ISO 13849-1 is relevant for cases where a risk assessment according to EN ISO 12100 has initiated a
risk reduction measure that relies on a safety-related control system. In those cases, the safety-related
control system has to perform a safety function. The application of EN ISO 13849-1 is restricted to those
cases only.
NOTE 1 The combined safety-related parts of a control system start at the point where the safety-related input
signals are initiated (including, for example, the actuating cam and the roller of the position switch) and end at the
output of the power control elements (including, e.g. the main contacts of a contactor).
NOTE 2 The control system is defined in EN ISO 12100:2010, Annex A to end at the output of the power control
elements. By this definition, e.g. load holding valves are considered to belong to the operating part of the system
and not to the safety related part of the control system.
The performance level (PL) for safety functions shall meet the minimum required performance level
(PLr) as detailed in Table 3 below. For purely mechanical solutions that fulfil the required functions of
Table 3, no specific performance level is required; for example a locking pin.
The manufacturer's risk assessment may require different and/or additional safety functions than those
listed in Table 3.
