Hydraulic fluid power - General rules and safety requirements for systems and their components

ISO 4413:2010 specifies general rules and safety requirements for hydraulic fluid power systems and components used on machinery as defined by ISO 12100. ISO 4413:2010 deals with all significant hazards associated with hydraulic fluid power systems and specifies the principles to apply in order to avoid those hazards when the systems are put to their intended use. ISO 4413:2010 applies to the design, construction and modification of systems and their components, also taking into account the following aspects: assembly, installation, adjustment, uninterrupted system operation, ease and economy of maintenance and cleaning, reliable operation in all intended uses, energy efficiency and environment.

Transmissions hydrauliques — Règles générales et exigences de sécurité relatives aux systèmes et leurs composants

L'ISO 4413:2010 spécifie des règles générales et des exigences de sécurité relatives aux systèmes et composants de transmissions hydrauliques utilisés sur des machines telles que définies par l'ISO 12100. L'ISO 4413:2010 traite tous les phénomènes dangereux significatifs associés aux systèmes de transmissions hydrauliques et spécifie les principes à appliquer pour éviter ces phénomènes dangereux lorsque les systèmes sont mis en œuvre selon l'usage prévu. L'ISO 4413:2010 s'applique à la conception, à la construction et à la modification des systèmes et de leurs composants, en tenant également compte des aspects suivants: assemblage, installation, réglage, fonctionnement continu du système, facilité et économie de la maintenance et du nettoyage, fiabilité du fonctionnement pour tous les usages prévus, rendement énergétique et environnement.

Overview

ISO 4413:2010 - Hydraulic fluid power: General rules and safety requirements for systems and their components defines high-level safety and design principles for hydraulic systems used on machinery (as defined by ISO 12100). The standard addresses all significant hazards related to hydraulic fluid power and sets out rules to avoid those hazards during intended use. It applies to the design, construction and modification of hydraulic systems and components, and covers practical aspects such as assembly, installation, adjustment, maintenance, energy efficiency and environmental considerations.

Key topics and requirements

• Hazard identification and risk reduction: principles to recognize hydraulic hazards and apply protective measures.
• System design and layout: guidance on safe component selection, circuit arrangement and pressure containment to prevent failures and uncontrolled movement.
• Installation & assembly: requirements for correct fitting, secure connections, mounting and routing to minimise leak and damage risks.
• Operation & control: recommendations for safe control strategies, emergency stop and isolation measures to protect users and equipment.
• Maintenance & cleaning: measures to ensure accessibility, safe servicing, contamination control (filtration/cleanliness) and cost-effective upkeep.
• Reliability & uninterrupted operation: design for dependable performance across intended uses, with attention to temperature, filtration and wear factors.
• Energy efficiency & environment: principles to improve hydraulic system energy use and reduce environmental impact (e.g., fluid handling, leak minimisation, disposal considerations).

Applications and who uses ISO 4413:2010

ISO 4413 is widely applicable to any sector that uses hydraulic fluid power, including:

• OEMs and machine designers building industrial machinery, construction equipment, agricultural machines and mobile machinery.
• System integrators and component manufacturers specifying valves, pumps, actuators and hoses.
• Safety engineers and compliance officers conducting risk assessments, design reviews and conformity checks against machinery safety requirements.
• Maintenance teams and technicians implementing service procedures, cleaning and contamination control.
• Inspectors and certifying bodies verifying safe installation and operation for regulatory compliance.

Using ISO 4413 helps organisations reduce operational risk, improve system reliability, support energy-efficient design, and align hydraulic systems with machinery safety legislation.
