Sicherheitsanforderungen für industrielle Wäschereimaschinen - Teil 1: Gemeinsame Anforderungen (ISO 10472-1:1997)

Die einzelnen Teile der ISO 10472 nennen die wesentlichen Gefährdungen im Zusammenhang mit
Wäschereimaschinen, die für die Verwendung in industriellen Wäschereien, zu denen auch Wäschereien von
Hotels, Krankenhäusern, Pflegeheimen, Gefängnissen und ähnlichen Einrichtungen zählen, konstruiert werden,
sowie Maschinen, die für den Gebrauch in Selbstbedienungs-Waschsalons konstruiert werden und das
in den einzelnen Teilen der ISO 10472 festgelegte Mindest-Fassungsvermögen haben. Pressen, die in der
Chemischreinigung und in der Bekleidungsindustrie verwendet werden, sind ebenso eingeschlossen.
Bestimmte spezialisierte Ausrüstungsmaschinen, die für fassonierte Textilien benötigt werden, sind ausgeschlossen.
Elektrische Geräte für den Hausgebrauch und ähnliche Zwecke werden von der ISO 10472 nicht abgedeckt.
Die einzelnen Teile der ISO 10472 ergänzen die grundlegenden Anforderungen von ISO/TR 12100-1 und
ISO/TR 12100-2. Sie geben dem Konstrukteur Anleitung bei der Einschätzung der mit den Gefährdungen
verbundenen Risiken (siehe EN 1050) und bei der Auswahl von Maßnahmen zur Erreichung des erforderlichen
Sicherheitsniveaus. „Verwendung der Maschinen” beinhaltet sowohl die bestimmungsgemäße Verwendung
als auch den vernünftigerweise vorhersehbaren Missbrauch.
Die einzelnen Teile der ISO 10472 geben keine spezifischen technischen Hinweise zu:
- anderen Phasen der Lebensdauer einer Maschine als der Verwendung;
- Lärm;
- Laser;
- Instandhaltung und Beseitigung von Prozessstörungen;
- Ergonomie;
- Explosionen;
- Abtrennen von Energiequellen;
- Druckbehälter;
- heiße Oberflächen, die aus Produktionsgründen zwangsläufig ungeschützt sind, siehe ISO 10472-6 (Oberplattenoberfläche
von Pressen).

Exigences de sécurité pour les machines de blanchisserie industrielle - Partie 1: Prescriptions communes (ISO 10472-1:1997)

Les parties individuelles de l'ISO 10472 identifient tous les phénomènes dangereux significatifs associés au matériel de blanchisserie conçu pour être utilisé dans les blanchisseries industrielles qui comprennent hôtels, hôpitaux, cliniques, prisons et établissements similaires, de même que les machines conçues pour être utilisées dans les établissements en self-service et dont les capacités minimales sont spécifiées dans l'ISO 10472.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has
been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates
closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical
standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for
voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies
casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 10472-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 72, Textile machinery and
machinery for dry-cleaning and industrial laundering, Subcommittee SC 5, Industrial laundry and
dry-cleaning machinery.
ISO 10472 consists of the following parts, under the general title Safety requirements for industrial laundry
machinery:
— Part 1: Common requirements
— Part 2: Washing machines and washer-extractors
— Part 3: Washing tunnel lines including component machines
— Part 4: Air dryers
— Part 5: Flatwork ironers, feeders and folders
— Part 6: Ironing and fusing presses

Introduction
ISO 10472 is intended to instruct the designer of industrial laundry machinery in a systematic manner,
focusing on his particular type of machine, regarding the relevant essential safety requirements, and to
suggest possible state-of-the-art safety solutions.
The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this part of ISO 10472. The
manufacturer's attention is drawn to the fact that machinery should comply as appropriate with
ISO/TR 12100-1 and ISO/TR 12100-2 for hazards which are not specifically referred to in this part of
ISO 10472.
All examples given in ISO 10472 represent the state of the art. Equivalent solutions are acceptable, provided
they attain at least the same safety level.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD  ISO ISO 10472-1:1997(E)
Safety requirements for industrial laundry machinery —
Part 1:
Common requirements
1 Scope
The individual parts of ISO 10472 identify all significant hazards associated with laundry machinery
designed for use in industrial laundry premises, which includes hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, prisons
and similar premises, as well as machines designed for use in self-service establishments subject to the
minimum capacities stated in the separate parts of ISO 10472. Dry-cleaning presses and garment presses
are also included.
Certain specialized finishing machines used for shaped items are excluded.
Household and similar electrical appliances (see IEC 335) are not covered by ISO 10472.
The individual parts of ISO 10472 complement the basic requirements laid down in ISO/TR 12100-1 and
ISO/TR 12100-2. They give guidance to the designer on assessing the risks associated with the hazards (see
EN 1050) and on selecting measures to attain the required safety level. "Use of machinery" comprises both
intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse.
The individual parts of ISO 10472 do not give specific technical advice about:
— the phases of life of the machine other than use;
— noise;
— laser;
— maintenance operations and elimination of process faults;
— ergonomics;
— explosions;
— isolation of energy sources;
— pressure vessels;
— hot surfaces necessarily exposed for production purposes [but see ISO 10472-6 (press head surface)].
The individual parts of ISO 10472 do not cover electromagnetic compatibility.
Hazards due to the use of gas within a machine which is not included in the range described in 5.5.2 of this
part of ISO 10472 are not covered by the individual parts of ISO 10472.
Examples of layouts of a large- and a medium-size plant which show the machines of parts 2 to 6 of
ISO 10472 are given in annex B.
The individual parts of ISO 10472 apply to machines which are manufactured after the date of issue of the
relevant parts.
NOTE — For significant hazards concerned with construction, transport, commissioning, decommissioning,
dismantling and disposal of the machine, see ISO/TR 12100-1:1992, 3.11, 3.12 and ISO/TR 12100-2:1992, 5.5.

The guidance contained in the individual parts of ISO 10472 is based on the assumption that the designer
has completed a risk analysis of the machine under consideration. This will enable him to identify and fulfil
the significant requirements for the machine as stipulated by the individual parts of ISO 10472.

requirements and/or measures shall be taken:
a) there shall be a power supply disconnecting device (master isolator) for the entire complex installation,
and each machine or section shall be provided with individual power supply disconnecting devices,
where such can be operated individually (see EN 1037:1995, 4.1); and
b) additional guards and safety devices shall be installed as necessary for either the complex installation in
its entirety or on individual constituent machines, together with the interfaces between any given
machine and those adjoining; and
c) all movable guards and safety devices shall be in position and activated before it is possible to start the
entire complex installation for normal operation. It is permitted to have guards and safety devices out of
position or inactivated on any constituent machine whilst it is purposely inoperative and at standstill,
provided that access to dangerous parts on adjacent operating machines is prevented; and
d) in the case of a machine, or a combination of machines, comprising unit items selected from the
proprietary range of products of two or more manufacturers, it shall be ensured that a comprehensive
