Cranes - Power driven winches and hoists - Part 1: Power driven winches

This draft European Standard is applicable to the design, information for use, maintenance and testing of power driven winches for which the prime mover is an electric motor, hydraulic motor, internal combustion motor or pneumatic motor. Winches are designed for the movement or manipulation of loads supported on level or inclined planes in situations where risks resulting from a failure of the winding mechanism or pulling medium are mitigated by external control measures.
This draft European Standard is not applicable to devices which handle freely suspended loads, e.g. construction winches.
Generally, a winch is used without any additional transport movement, except in cases where a winch is used on a stranded vehicle for self-recovery of the vehicle.
This European Standard is applicable to the following types of winch:
a)   rope winches;
b)   belt winches, except steel belts used as pulling media;
c)   traction winches.
These types of winches a) to c) also include the following specific applications:
-   vehicle recovery winches;
-   winches on boat trailers;
-   forestry winches;
-   winches for stationary offshore applications;
-   winches for drilling applications.
NOTE   Examples are shown in Annex A.
This European Standard does not apply to:
-   power-driven hoists in accordance with EN 14492 2;
-   winches for seagoing vessels and mobile offshore units;
-   winches for the lifting of persons;
-   NGL building hoists in accordance with EN 14492 2;
-   winches for the handling of hot molten masses (risk covered by EN 14492 2).
The significant hazards covered by this European Standard are identified in Clause 4.
This European Standard does not specify additional requirements for hazards related to the use of winches in explosive atmospheres in underground works.
This document applies to winches manufactured after approval by CEN with a transitional period of 2 years.

Krane - Kraftgetriebene Winden und Hubwerke - Teil 1: Kraftgetriebene Winden

Dieser Europäische Norm-Entwurf gilt für die Konstruktion, Benutzungsinformationen, Wartung und Prüfung von kraftgetriebenen Winden, deren Hauptantrieb ein Elektromotor, hydraulischer Motor, Verbrennungsmotor oder pneumatischer Motor ist. Winden sind für das Bewegen oder die Handhabung von auf der Ebene oder auf geneigten Ebenen gelagerten Lasten in Situationen konstruktiv ausgelegt, bei denen die sich aus dem Versagen des Windwerkes (Windenmechanismus) oder Zugmittels ergebenen Gefährdungen durch externe Steuerungsmaßnahmen abgemindert werden.
Dieser Europäische Norm-Entwurf ist nicht auf Einrichtungen anwendbar, die freihängende Lasten handhaben, z. B. Bauwinden.
Im Allgemeinen wird eine Winde ohne zusätzliche Fahrbewegung verwendet, außer in Fällen, bei denen eine Winde an einem liegengebliebenen Fahrzeug zur Selbstbergung des Fahrzeuges eingesetzt wird.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für die folgenden Windentypen:
a)   Seilwinden;
b)   Bandwinden, ausgenommen Stahlbänder als Zugmittel;
c)   Treibscheibenwinden.
Die Winden a) bis c) schließen auch die folgenden Einsatzzwecke ein:
-   Fahrzeugbergewinden;
-   Winden auf Bootsanhängern;
-   Winden für die Forstwirtschaft,
-   Winden für stationäre Offshore-Anwendungen;
-   Winden für Bohranwendungen;
ANMERKUNG   Beispiele sind in Anhang A dargestellt.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für:
-   kraftgetriebene Hubwerke nach EN 14492-2;
-   Winden für hochseetüchtige Schiffe und mobile Offshore-Einheiten;
-   Winden für das Heben von Personen;
-   Bauaufzüge für nicht geführte Lasten nach EN 14492-2;
-   Winden für die Handhabung von feuerflüssigen Massen (Gefährdung in EN 14492-2 behandelt).
Die von dieser Europäischen Norm erfassten signifikanten Gefährdungen sind in Abschnitt 4 identifiziert.
Diese Europäische Norm spezifiziert keine zusätzlichen Anforderungen für Gefährdungen bei der Ver¬wendung von Winden in explosionsgefährdeten Bereichen (explosionsfähigen Atmosphären) in Grubenbauen.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Winden, die nach der Zulassung durch CEN innerhalb einer Übergangsfrist von 2 Jahren hergestellt werden.

Appareils de levage à charge suspendue - Treuils et palans motorisés - Partie 1 : Treuils motorisés

Le présent projet de Norme européenne s’applique à la conception, aux informations pour l’utilisation, à la maintenance et aux essais relatifs aux treuils motorisés, dont le moteur principal est électrique, hydraulique, à combustion interne ou pneumatique. Les treuils sont conçus pour le déplacement ou la manipulation de charges sur des plans horizontaux ou inclinés dans des situations où les risques résultant d'une défaillance du mécanisme d'enroulement ou de l'agrès de traction sont réduits par des mesures de contrôle externes.
Le présent projet de Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux dispositifs qui manipulent librement des charges suspendues, par exemple les treuils de construction.
En général, un treuil est utilisé sans mouvement de déplacement supplémentaire, excepté dans les cas où un treuil est utilisé pour la propre récupération d'un véhicule en panne.
La présente Norme européenne s’applique aux types de treuils suivants :
a)   treuils à câble ;
b)   treuils à sangle, à l’exception des sangles en acier utilisées comme agrès de traction ;
c)   treuils à poulie d’adhérence.
Les types de treuils a) à c) incluent également les applications spécifiques suivantes :
-   treuils de récupération de véhicules ;
-   treuils sur remorques pour bateaux ;
-   treuils forestiers ;
-   treuils pour applications fixes en mer ;
-   treuils pour applications de forage.
NOTE   Des exemples sont présentés à l’Annexe A.
La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique pas aux appareils de levage suivants :
-   palans motorisés conformément à l’EN 14492 2 ;
-   treuils pour navires de haute mer et unités mobiles en mer ;
-   treuils pour le levage de personnes ;
-   treuils potence de chantier conformément à l’EN 14492 2 ;
-   treuils pour le transport de matières en fusion (phénomènes dangereux couverts par l’EN 14492 2).
Les phénomènes dangereux significatifs couverts par la présente Norme européenne sont identifiés à l'Article 4.
La présente Norme européenne ne spécifie pas les prescriptions supplémentaires applicables aux phénomènes dangereux liés à l’utilisation de treuils en atmosphère explosive dans les travaux souterrains.
Le présent document s’applique aux treuils motorisés qui sont fabriqués après la date d’approbation de la présente norme par le CEN, avec une période transitoire de 2 ans.

Introduction
This European standard is a harmonized standard to provide one means for power driven winches to conform
to the essential health and safety requirements the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are
indicated in the scope of this European Standard.
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provision of the other standards, for machines
that have been designed and built in accordance with the provisions of this type C standard.
