The requirements of EN 1804 Part 3 also apply to the hydraulic components of the electro-hydraulic control
systems
This standard applies to electro-hydraulic control systems used at ambient temperatures from ?10 °C to
40 °C and operating temperatures from ?10 °C to 60 °C.
This standard identifies and takes into account:
.possible hazards which can be caused by the operation of hydraulic control devices;
.areas and operating conditions which can create such hazards;
.hazardous situations which can cause injury or may be damaging to health;
.hazards which can be caused by firedamp and/or flammable dust.
This standard describes methods for the reduction of these hazards.
A list of hazards covered appears in Clause 4.
This standard is applicable to all electro-hydraulic control devices placed on the market for the first time
which are manufactured after the date on which this standard was issued..prEN 1804-4:2004 (E)

Introduction
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN 1070.
The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this standard.
While preparing this standard, it was assumed that:
 only trained and competent persons operate the machine;
 components without specific requirements are
a) designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation methods;
b) of sound mechanical and electrical construction;
c) free from defects;
 components are kept in good working order;
 a consultation took place between the manufacturer of the electro-hydraulic control systems and the user
(manufacturer of the support unit or user in the case of replacement parts) concerning the conditions of
use of the machinery.
1 Scope
This standard specifies the safety requirements for electro-hydraulic control devices for support units,
including their emergency stop, pre-start warning, monitoring and control devices, when used as specified by
the manufacturer or his authorized representative.
The requirements of EN 1804 Part 3 also apply to the hydraulic components of the electro-hydraulic control
systems
This standard applies to electro-hydraulic control systems used at ambient temperatures from –10 °C to
40 °C and operating temperatures from –10 °C to 60 °C.
This standard identifies and takes into account:

 possible hazards which can be caused by the operation of hydraulic control devices;
 areas and operating conditions which can create such hazards;
 hazardous situations which can cause injury or may be damaging to health;
 hazards which can be caused by firedamp and/or flammable dust.
This standard describes methods for the reduction of these hazards.
