Refuse collection vehicles - General requirements and safety requirements - Part 1: Rear loaded refuse collection vehicles

This European Standard applies to rear loaded refuse collection vehicles (RCV), as defined in 3.2. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the rear loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This European Standard is applicable to the design and construction of the rear loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fit for its function and can be operated, adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the rear loaded RCV. This part 1 describes and defines the safety requirements of rear loaded RCVs excluding the interface tailgate/discharge door with the lifting device(s) and the lifting device(s) as illustrated in Figure A.1. Safety requirements for the lifting device(s) and the interface with the tailgate/discharge door are defined in EN 1501-5. This European Standard is not applicable to: - operation in severe conditions, e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: - below - 25 °C and above + 40 °C temperatures; - tropical environment; - wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; - contaminating environment; - corrosive environment; - operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; - handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot wastes, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated waste, especially fragile loads, explosives); - operation on ships. This European Standard is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

Vozila za zbiranje odpadkov - Splošne in varnostne zahteve - 1. del: Vozila za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj

Ta evropski standard se uporablja za vozila za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj, kot je opredeljeno v 3.2. Ta evropski standard obravnava vse velike nevarnosti, nevarne situacije in primere v zvezi z vozili za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj, kadar se uporabljajo, kot je predvideno, in pod pogoji napačne uporabe, ki jih razumno predvidi proizvajalec, v celotni predvideni življenjski dobi, kot je opredeljeno v točki 4. Ta evropski standard velja za načrtovanje in izdelavo vozil za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj, zato da se zagotovi, da so primerna za svojo funkcijo in jih je mogoče upravljati, prilagajati in vzdrževati v celotni življenjski dobi. Ne uporablja se za konec življenjske dobe vozil za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj. Ta 1. del opisuje in določa varnostne zahteve vozil za zbiranje odpadkov z nakladanjem zadaj, razen vmesnika s prtljažnimi vrati/vrati za raztovor z iztresalniki in iztresalnike, kot je prikazano na sliki A.1. Varnostne zahteve za iztresalnike in za vmesnik s prtljažnimi vrati/vrati za raztovor so opredeljeni v EN 1501-5. Ta evropski standard ne velja za: - delovanje v skrajnih razmerah, npr. izrednih okoljskih razmerah, kot so: - temperature pod –25 °C in nad +40 °C; - tropsko okolje; - hitrost vetra, ki presega 75 km/h; - strupeno okolje; - korozivno okolje; - delovanje v potencialno eksplozivnih atmosferah; - ravnanje s tovori, katerih narava bi lahko povzročila nevarne situacije (npr. vroči odpadki, kisline in baze, radioaktivni materiali, kontaminirani odpadki, izredno lomljiv tovor, eksplozivi); - delovanje na ladjah. Ta evropski standard ne velja za stroje, ki so bili narejeni, preden je CEN objavil ta standard.

EN 1501-1:2011 (E) 6 Introduction This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are covered, are indicated in the scope of this European Standard. The user's attention is drawn to the possibility that for refuse collection vehicles described within EN 1501-1, compliance with this European Standard may require the use of an invention covered by patent rights. By publication of this part of EN 1501, no position is taken with respect to the validity of this claim or of any patent rights in connection therewith. However, each patent holder listed in this annex has filed with the CEN-European Committee for Standardisation a statement of willingness, to grant a licence under such rights that they hold on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions to applicants desiring to obtain such a licence. Information regarding patents related to the reverse limitation for the RCV with occupied footboard can be obtained from: GEESINK B.V. Betonweg 8 P.O. Box 52 8300 AB Emmeloord NETHERLANDS When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. While producing this European Standard it was assumed that:  the guidelines issued by the chassis-cab manufacturer have been taken into account;  components without specific requirements are designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation codes, including all failure modes, of sound mechanical and electrical construction and made of materials with adequate strength and of suitable quality;  components are kept in good repair and working order, so that the required characteristics remain despite wear;  harmful materials, such as asbestos, are not used as part of the rear loaded RCV;  only persons who have been appropriately trained will operate the rear loaded RCV. This European Standard is designed for careful consideration by designers, manufacturers, suppliers and users of rear loaded RCVs. SIST EN 1501-1:2011



EN 1501-1:2011 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard applies to rear loaded refuse collection vehicles (RCV), as defined in 3.2.
This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the rear loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This European Standard is applicable to the design and construction of the rear loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fit for its function and can be operated, adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the rear loaded RCV. This part 1 describes and defines the safety requirements of rear loaded RCVs excluding the interface tailgate/discharge door with the lifting device(s) and the lifting device(s) as illustrated in Figure A.1. Safety requirements for the lifting device(s) and the interface with the tailgate/discharge door are defined in EN 1501-5. This European Standard is not applicable to:  operation in severe conditions, e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as:  below – 25 °C and above + 40 °C temperatures;  tropical environment;  wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h;  contaminating environment;  corrosive environment;  operation in potentially explosive atmospheres;  handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot wastes, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated waste, especially fragile loads, explosives);  operation on ships. This European Standard is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
