The vehicle may be equipped with a compaction mechanism. An RCV comprises a chassis with cab onto which the bodywork is mounted. The bodywork consist of two main parts namely the body and the tailgate. It may be equipped with a container loading device. SIST EN 1501-1:2000+A2:2010



EN 1501-1:1998+A2:2009 (E) 6 3.2 cab enclosure mounted on the chassis in front of the body where the driver controls the road vehicle and the rest of the crew can sit 3.3 body That part of the bodywork in which the collected and compacted waste is stored. It may rotate as part of the compacting action (see 3.10). 3.4 tailgate The rear section of the bodywork which is hinged to the body. The tailgate can be opened to discharge the waste from the body. The tailgate incorporates both the hopper and the compaction mechanism. 3.5 hopper the lower part of the tailgate into which the waste is loaded via containers or by hand 3.6 rave rail the loading edge of the hopper and produced as a cross beam (see figure A.1) or the edge of a guide flap (see figure A.5). 3.7 guide flap a removable or foldable extension to the rave rail 3.8 Capacity
3.8.1 capacity of bodywork The effective volume that can be filled with compacted waste. In case of blade compaction mechanisms, this capacity is defined as the one included between the eventual ejection plate in its retracted position and the compaction mechanism, the latter being positioned at the end of its compaction cycle. The capacity of the bodywork is stated in m3 rounded off to one decimal. 3.8.2 capacity of rotation drum system the volume of the cylindric body 3.8.3 capacity of hopper the effective volume of water the hopper theoretically can contain (see figure A.1). The capacity of the hopper is stated in m3. 3.9 loading height is measured from the upper edge of the rave rail (see figure A.1) to the level where the operator is standing, when the vehicle is empty and ready for loading SIST EN 1501-1:2000+A2:2010



EN 1501-1:1998+A2:2009 (E) 7 3.10 compaction mechanism a mechanism used to compact and transfer the waste from the hopper into the body either by means of a plate system which sweeps the hopper by a single or more movement or by a rotational screw movement of the body 3.11 compaction pressure the horizontal perpendicular force, caused by the compaction mechanism, divided by the surface of the internal vertical section of the body, in Newton per square millimetre 3.12 ejection plate a plate occupying the whole cross sectional area of the body, capable of travelling the full length of the body 3.13 discharge system a device to empty the refuse collection body 3.14 discharge time the actual time for the ejection of the load (measured in s) including opening and closing of the tailgate 3.15 designated waste container the range or types of receptacle for storing waste prior to the collection by a RCV compatible with the RCV's lifting device 3.16 lifting device a structure which picks-up, tilts and empties waste containers into the hopper 3.17 adaption frame a structure which can be used to mount the lifting device to the tailgate 3.18 handloading an operation covering the loading of waste into the rear of the vehicle directly by hand 3.19 shear trap arises when two surfaces (at least one surface movable) are passing close to each other edge to edge, which may trap part or parts of the operative's body or clothing 3.20 footboard a platform fixed to the rear of the RCV on which an operator can stand 3.21 satellite vehicle a small RCV, that can discharge its load directly into another RCV 3.22 control lever a hold to run control which has to be held in the ON-position all the time that motion is taking place SIST EN 1501-1:2000+A2:2010



EN 1501-1:1998+A2:2009 (E) 8 3.23 working area the vicinity of the tailgate used for loading and servicing the RCV 4 Types 4.1 Rear loaded collection vehicles The RCV covered by this standard are rear-loaded. Waste is transferred manually or mechanically over the rave rail into a hopper. A compaction mechanism then transfers and compacts the waste from the hopper into the body of the vehicle. The tailgate i.e. the rear section of the body, is opened to discharge waste when the body is full. In rear loading vehicles, the tailgate consists of both the hopper and the compaction mechanism. There are several types of compaction systems, which are listed in 4.2. 4.2 Compaction system Each RCV shall be fitted with one or more of the following compaction systems: 4.2.1 Automatic compaction system All of the automatic compaction systems may be actuated either manually or by the emptying of a container into the hopper.  Continuous cycle is one that continually cycles until stopped by an independent action ("AUTO");  Single cycle is one that cycles once and then stops automatically ("SINGLE");  Multi cycle is one that cycles for a given number of times and then stops automatically ("MULTI"). 4.2.2 Semi-automatic compaction system Controlled cycle is a single cycle controlled by the operator, by depressing one single button or lever, (hold to run control) from the start until any shear trap has been passed. Thereafter, the cycle will be completed automatically, even if the button or lever is released ("CTRL"). Intermittent cycle is a cycle where the compaction mechanism is automatically interrupted at least 500 mm before the rave rail. A hold to run control is then required to run the compaction mechanism for that part of the cycle where a shear trap is created ("SEMI") up to the end of the cycle. 4.2.3 Manual compaction system Manual cycle is a cycle where compaction is controlled by the operator by means of a hold to run control ("MAN"). 4.2.4 Selection of system A selection of system is when a compaction operating system can be changed to or from any of the modes mentioned under 4.2.1 to 4.2.3 ("SELECT"). 4.3 Discharge system Each RCV shall be fitted with one of the following discharge systems: SIST EN 1501-1:2000+A2:2010



EN 1501-1:1998+A2:2009 (E) 9 4.3.1 Ejection plate system This system allows the emptying of the body by moving the ejection plate to the rear, after opening the tailgate. 4.3.2 Rotation drum body The discharge of rotation drums is done by reversing the rotation after opening the tailgate. 4.3.3 Discharge by tipping The emptying of the refuse body is done by tilting the body after opening the tailgate. 4.4 Operation of lifting devices Each RCV can be fitted with one of the following lifting device operating systems: 4.4.1 Manual System The lifting device is manually controlled by a "hold to run" button or lever. Release of button or lever immediately stops the mechanism. 4.4.2 Semi-automatic system The semi-automatic system requires the activation of the system by the single actuation of a button or lever. The cycle is completed automatically and finishes with the return of the container to the ground. 4.4.3 Automatic system The automatic system is a system where the introduction of the waste container to the lifting device, starts the action of the lifting and clamping mechanism. The cycle is completed automatically and finishes with the return of the waste container to the ground. 4.5 Loading system There are the following types of loading system: 4.5.1 Open system with the lifting device situated at or below the rave rail in the position for emptying waste containers and allowing handloading of bulky waste or sacks (see figure A.3) 4.5.2 Closed system with adaption frame and lifting device for emptying waste containers (see figure A.4 and A.7). 4.5.3 Closed system without adaption frame and with guide flap for handloading (see figure A.5). 5 List of hazards and risks This list of hazards and risks strictly follows EN 414:1992, annex A (see table 1). It considers all risks and hazards which are known in the field of waste collection vehicle's operation. Not mentioned are risks and hazards due to the chassis, public traffic and general misuse. Hazards arising from the type of waste collected or loaded into the RCV, such as toxic or inflammable materials, are not covered in this standard. Risks listed in EN 414:1992, annex A not shown in table 1 do not occur in waste collection vehicles. NOTE 1 All risks shown in the column "risk" are related to persons standing on the ground or the rear footboards. SIST EN 1501-1:2000+A2:2010
