Overview
EN 60745-2-22:2011/A11:2013 is a CENELEC amendment to the European safety standard for hand‑held motor‑operated electric tools, specifically the particular requirements for cut‑off machines (including wall chasers). Approved in December 2012, the amendment updates test conditions, definitions and marking/instruction requirements to support the Essential Requirements of the EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC). This standard is used to assess safety, noise and vibration performance, and user information for cut‑off machines used in construction and related trades.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and definitions
- Adds a formal definition for wall chaser (rotating spindle with diamond wheels for non‑through peripheral grinding).
- Noise and vibration test conditions
- Specific test set‑ups for cut‑off machines and wall chasers, including workpiece and support arrangements.
- Typical test fixture dimensions: concrete slab (min. 400 × 600 × 50 mm) fixed on a supporting concrete block (min. 800 × 500 × 200 mm).
- Measurement durations: noise measured during 15 s with tool in the middle of the slab/block; vibration measured from wheel entry to exit.
- Feed force and loading: operators apply forces to achieve rated input/current ±10% during cutting.
- Concrete formulation and material requirements
- Prescribed concrete composition and a 28‑day compressive strength target (40 N/mm²) for reproducible testing.
- Vibration measurement specifics
- Handle measurement positions are specified; the highest emitting handle vibration total value (a_h) and measurement uncertainty (K) must be declared.
- Dust and hearing protection
- Where machines are not intended for liquid cooling, dust extraction must be used during tests; instructions must include use of dust collection systems, wearing dust masks, and always wearing hearing protection.
- Construction guidance
- Machines not intended to use liquid systems are explicitly considered “considerable dust producers.”
Practical applications and users
- Manufacturers of cut‑off machines, diamond cutting wheels, and wall chasers - for product design, type testing and CE conformity.
- Independent test laboratories and certification bodies - to perform noise, vibration and safety testing in line with CENELEC requirements.
- Health & safety engineers, procurement professionals and compliance teams - to verify equipment specifications, labeling and user instructions meet regulatory obligations.
- National standardization committees and technical experts involved in harmonization and national implementation.
