Food processing machinery - Fish heading and filleting machines - Safety and hygiene requirements

This European Standard specifies the safety and hygiene requirements for the design and construction of automatic fish heading and fish filleting machines, and using knives.
This European Standard applies to machinery and equipment for the heading and filleting of fish in the fish processing industry. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations, and events relevant to fish heading and filleting machines when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). It deals with the hazards during the following phases of the intended use: assembly and installation, commissioning, setting and adjusting, operation, cleaning, fault finding, and maintenance.
When drawing up this European Standard, the following assumptions were made:
-  only trained adult persons operate the machines;
-  the machines are used in workplaces with an illumination level that can be reasonably expected in such places.
This European Standard is not applicable to fish heading and filleting machines that are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

Ta evropski standard določa varnostne in higienske zahteve za načrtovanje in konstrukcijo strojev za odstranjevanje ribjih glav in filetiranje rib, pri katerih se uporabljajo noži.
Ta evropski standard velja za stroje in opremo za odstranjevanje ribjih glav in filetiranje rib v ribiški predelovalni industriji. Ta dokument opisuje vsa večja tveganja, nevarne situacije in nevarne dogodke v zvezi s stroji za odstranjevanje ribjih glav in filetiranje rib, kadar se uporabljajo v skladu z njihovim namenom in pod pogoji pričakovane nepravilne uporabe, ki jih določa proizvajalec (glej točko 4). Opisuje nevarnosti v naslednjih fazah predvidene uporabe: sestavljanje in nameščanje, začetek obratovanja, nastavitev in prilagoditev, delovanje, čiščenje, iskanje okvar in vzdrževanje.
Pri pripravi tega evropskega standarda so bile uporabljene naslednje predpostavke:
–  stroje upravljajo le usposobljene odrasle osebe;
–  stroji se uporabljajo na delovnih mestih z ravnjo osvetljenosti, ki se lahko smiselno pričakuje na takih mestih.
Ta evropski standard se ne uporablja za stroje za odstranjevanje ribjih glav in filetiranje rib, ki so bili izdelani pred datumom objave dokumenta kot standarda EN.

Introduction
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
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.
When provisions of this type-C-standard are different from those which are stated in type-A- and -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.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the safety and hygiene requirements for the design and construction of
automatic fish heading and fish filleting machines, and using knives.
This European Standard applies to machinery and equipment for the heading and filleting of fish in the fish
processing industry. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations, and events
relevant to fish heading and filleting machines when they are used as intended and under conditions of
misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). It deals with the hazards during
the following phases of the intended use: assembly and installation, commissioning, setting and adjusting,
operation, cleaning, fault finding, and maintenance.
When drawing up this European Standard, the following assumptions were made:
 only trained adult persons operate the machines;
 the machines are used in workplaces with an illumination level that can be reasonably expected in such
places.
This European Standard is not applicable to fish heading and filleting machines that are manufactured before
the date of its publication as EN.
