Introduction
With the use of electronic devices in areas where industrial trucks operate, there is a need to ensure
that industrial trucks are provided with adequate immunity to external electromagnetic fields. As
industrial trucks are fitted with electrical and electronic devices, there is a need to ensure that emission
of electromagnetic fields from the trucks meets acceptable limits.
High frequency electrical disturbances emerge during the normal operation of many parts of the
industrial trucks and systems. They are generated within a large frequency range with different
electrical characteristics.
Electrostatic discharges are relevant to industrial trucks.
The test methods and acceptance criteria included in this document are suitable for industrial trucks in
view the specific characteristics and the operating parameters of this machinery; the tests have been
designed to reflect the construction of industrial trucks.
Two approaches are described to achieve compliance:
— complete truck tests;
— electrical/electronic systems with the components in the same configuration as in the truck.
In some situations trucks can be foreseen to be used in environments where the level of electro-
magnetic disturbances are likely to exceed the test levels within the scope of this European Standard. In
these situations, levels and/or frequencies outside the specified test parameters will need to be applied.
In addition, many areas are not homogeneous for their EMC classification; for example, hospitals and
airports have areas with different levels of classifications, for the areas outside the generic standard
definitions special rules can be applicable.

designed to reflect the construction of industrial trucks.
Two approaches are described to achieve compliance:
— complete truck tests;
— electrical/electronic systems with the components in the same configuration as in the truck.
In some situations trucks can be foreseen to be used in environments where the level of electro-
magnetic disturbances are likely to exceed the test levels within the scope of this European Standard. In
these situations, levels and/or frequencies outside the specified test parameters will need to be applied.
In addition, many areas are not homogeneous for their EMC classification; for example, hospitals and
airports have areas with different levels of classifications, for the areas outside the generic standard
definitions special rules can be applicable.

1 Scope
This European Standard is applicable to industrial trucks, regardless of the power source (called only
trucks) as defined in !ISO 5053-1:2015", and their electrical/electronic systems when used in
residential, commercial, light industry and industrial environments (specified in EN 61000-6-3:2007
and EN 61000-6-2:2005).
This European Standard specifies:
— the requirements and the limit values for electromagnetic emission and immunity to external
electromagnetic fields;
— the procedure and criteria for testing trucks and their electrical/electronic systems.
This European Standard is not applicable to:
— non-stacking low-lift straddle carriers;
— stacking high-lift straddle carriers;
— any pedestrian propelled trucks, excepted those which are equipped with load handling devices
which have electrical powered lifting devices;
1)
— trucks intended for use in the public domain with maximum speed exceeding 30 km/h;
— positioning system of driverless industrial trucks;
— interaction between systems on the trucks;
— interference to on-board radio equipment;
— equipment connected to AC-mains which is only used when the truck is not being operated (e.g. on
board charger).
