Overview
EN 50632-2-17:2016/A1:2021 (CENELEC/CLC) is a European amendment that defines particular requirements for dust measurement procedures specific to routers and trimmers. It is part of the EN 50632 series for electric motor‑operated tools and is to be used in conjunction with EN 50632-1:2015. The standard applies to mains‑ and battery‑supplied tools, with or without dust extraction units, where mineral dust (including silica) or wood dust emissions are expected. Amendment A1 (approved 2021‑08‑09) clarifies operating conditions, adds test orientation figures, and updates test material and procedure details.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope: Dust measurement procedure for motor‑operated routers and trimmers (wood and mineral dust scenarios).
- Use with EN 50632‑1:2015: This Part 2‑17 provides particular requirements and must be read together with the general procedures in Part 1.
- Operating conditions (Clause 4.3 updates):
- Routers - test material: chipboard P2 (density 610 ± 60 kg/m3, thickness 19 ± 1 mm, width 400 mm). Tool bits: 8 mm diameter for routers ≤ 1 200 W and battery models; 12 mm for > 1 200 W. Cutting depth 8 mm, slot spacing 10 mm. Test cycle: 15 slots per working cycle (typ. 10 min; extend if needed).
- Trimmers - test material: beech panels (400 × 400 mm, ~10 mm thick, moisture ≤12%). Cutter: 45° chamfer bit; chamfer 3 mm × 45°. Test cycle: 16 chamfers (two workpieces) per cycle (typ. 10 min; extend if needed).
- Speed settings: set to manufacturer’s maximum for cutting the specified material. Feed force: sufficient for stable, representative operation.
- Test orientation: Figures 101 and 102 (added by A1) define the positional relationship of workpiece, tool and operator during router and trimmer tests.
- Administrative: Amendment A1 sets implementation and withdrawal dates for national standards and notes possible patent rights.
Practical applications
- Establishing repeatable dust emission testing protocols for product development, verification and certification of routers and trimmers.
- Evaluating the effectiveness of dust extraction systems and tool designs in reducing wood dust and silica exposure.
- Supporting conformity assessment, CE marking evidence, and health & safety compliance for power tool manufacturers and test laboratories.
- Informing workplace exposure assessments and selection of tools or extraction accessories for carpentry, cabinetry, and industrial woodworking.
Who should use this standard
- Power tool manufacturers (design, testing, compliance teams)
- Independent test laboratories and certification bodies
- Occupational hygienists, safety engineers and procurement specialists
- Research institutions studying tool emissions and control measures
Related standards
