Sweepers - Part 1: Classification and Terminology

This document applies to surface cleaning machines for outdoor applications on public areas, roads, airports and industrial plants. Cleaning machines for winter maintenance or indoor applications are not under the scope of this European Standard. Surface cleaning machines in terms of this Standard are self propelled, truck mounted, attached sweeping equipment or pedestrian controlled.
This document deals with the classification of sweeping equipment and its performance specifications when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer.
This document does not include the carrier vehicles (e.g. truck). These will be handled in national or EC Directives for vehicles.
This document does not apply to road surface cleaning machines such as front mounted on tractors according to EN 13524, or other vehicles.
This document does not apply to machines or components that are specifically designed for cleaning tram lines and rail tracks.
This document applies to machines that are manufactured after the date of approval of this standard by CEN.
Industrial sweepers within the scope of EN 60335-2-72 are excluded.

Kehrmaschinen - Teil 1: Klassifizierung und Terminologie

Dieses Dokument gilt für Maschinen zur Oberflächenreinigung zum Einsatz im Außenbereich auf öffentlichen Verkehrsflächen, Straßen, Flughäfen und Industrieanlagen. Reinigungsmaschinen im Winterdienst und zur Innenreinigung fallen nicht unter den Anwendungsbereich dieser europäischen Europäischen Norm. Oberflächenreinigungs-maschinen im Sinne dieser Norm sind zum einen selbst fahrende, auf Lkw-Fahrgestellen aufgebaute oder angebaute Kehrmaschinen, aber auch von Fußgängern geführte Maschinen.
Dieses Dokument behandelt die Klassifizierung von Kehrmaschinen und deren Leistungsbeschreibungen bei ihrem bestimmungsgemäßen unter den vom Hersteller vorhersehbaren Einsatzbedingungen.
Dieses Dokument bezieht sich nicht auf Trägerfahrzeuge (z. B. Lkw). Diese Fahrzeuge sind durch nationale Regelwerke oder EG-Richtlinien für Fahrzeuge geregelt.
Dieses Dokument richtet sich nicht an Straßenreinigungsmaschinen, die nach EN 13524 an landwirt¬schaftlichen Zugmaschinen oder anderen Fahrzeugen vorn angebaut werden.
Dieses Dokument bezieht sich nicht auf Maschinen und Einrichtungen, die speziell zur Reinigung von Straßenbahn- oder Eisenbahngleisanlagen ausgelegt sind.
Dieses Dokument richtet sich an die Maschinen, die nach der Genehmigung dieser Norm durch das CEN gebaut werden.
Industriekehrmaschinen im Anwendungsbereich von EN 60335-2-72 sind vom Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm ausgenommen.

Overview

EN 15429-1:2007 - Sweepers: Part 1 - Classification and Terminology is a CEN European standard that defines terminology, classification and basic machine/component characteristics for surface cleaning machines used outdoors on public areas, roads, airports and industrial plants. It applies to self‑propelled, truck‑mounted, attached and pedestrian‑controlled sweepers manufactured after the date of approval (1 September 2007). The standard excludes winter‑maintenance or indoor cleaning machines, carrier vehicle regulations, tractor front‑mounted machines covered by EN 13524, tram/rail‑specific equipment and industrial sweepers covered by EN 60335‑2‑72. Part 2 (separate document) covers performance requirements and test methods.

Key Topics

This part focuses on clear definitions and measurable characteristics to support consistent classification and specification:

• Machine types and classification
  • Truck‑mounted sweepers (large > 4 m3; small ≤ 4 m3)
  • Self‑propelled sweepers (maxi, compact, midi, mini based on net hopper volume)
  • Attached sweeping equipment and pedestrian‑controlled units
• Hopper and capacity definitions
  • Gross volume capacity (inner hopper volume)
  • Net volume capacity (usable volume excluding internal components)
  • Fresh water tank and dirt‑water storage volumes
• Machine characteristics
  • Unladen weight (standard configuration, operator included)
  • Loading capacity (useful load)
  • Sweeping width (maximum cleaned width with new brushes)
  • Turning and sweeping dimensions (external/internal sweeping circles, turning circle)
  • Hopper dump height and discharge angle
  • Brush inclination (longitudinal and transverse angles)
• Functional components and systems
  • Sweeping gear (brushes, brooms, conveyors)
  • Dirt pick‑up systems (mechanical, pneumatic, hybrid)
  • Water recirculation systems (filters/separators for reuse)

Applications and Who Uses It

EN 15429‑1:2007 is practical for anyone specifying, designing, testing or procuring outdoor sweepers:

• Manufacturers - to label and design machines consistently and describe capacities and dimensions.
• Procurement and fleet managers (municipalities, airports, road authorities, industrial plants) - to select sweepers appropriate for streets, parking lots, pedestrian zones, runways and industrial yards.
• Test laboratories and conformity assessors - to interpret Part 2 test requirements and perform performance verification.
• Regulators and standards committees - to harmonize vocabulary and classification across national standards and vehicle directives.

Related Standards

• EN 13019 - Machines for road surface cleaning - Safety requirements
• EN 13524 - Highway maintenance machines - Safety requirements (front‑mounted tractor units)
• EN 60335‑2‑72 - Floor treatment machines for commercial/industrial use (excludes these from EN 15429‑1 scope)
• National or EC vehicle directives (for carrier vehicle aspects)

Keywords: EN 15429-1:2007, sweepers, classification and terminology, surface cleaning machines, truck mounted sweeper, self-propelled sweeper, hopper capacity, sweeping width, dirt pick-up system.
