Overview

SIST EN 12312-16:2005/kprA1:2008 is a European Standard amendment focused on aircraft ground support equipment, specifically air start equipment. Developed by the Technical Committee CEN/TC 274, this standard establishes specific requirements to ensure safety, functionality, and compliance for equipment used to start aircraft engines on the ground. The amendment integrates updated safety principles, testing methods, and references to general requirements for ground service equipment, aligning with EU directives and industry best practices.

Key Topics

• Scope and Integration: This part of the EN 12312 series complements general standards EN 1915-1 to EN 1915-4, covering vehicles, vibration, and noise measurement related to aircraft ground support equipment.
• Safety Requirements: The standard incorporates the latest safety protocols from EN ISO 13850:2008 concerning emergency stop design, ensuring air start equipment meets category 0 or 1 safety levels.
• Performance Verification: Modifications specify verification methods for vibration and noise, referencing EN 1915-3 and EN 1915-4 standards for assessing environmental and operational impacts.
• Compliance and Conformity: The inclusion of Annex ZB addresses the relationship between the standard and EU Directive 2006/42/EC on machinery, providing a conformity presumption for essential regulatory requirements, facilitating easier certification across EU member states.

Applications

• Aircraft Maintenance Hangars: Air start equipment compliant with SIST EN 12312-16:2005/kprA1:2008 is essential for safely and reliably starting aircraft engines during maintenance procedures.
• Ground Service Operations: Airports and ground service providers utilize these standards to ensure their air start equipment aligns with regulations promoting operational safety and noise/vibration control.
• Equipment Manufacturers: Producers of air start units follow this European Standard to design, manufacture, and test equipment that meets rigorous safety and performance benchmarks.
• Regulatory Compliance: Air start equipment operators and maintenance organizations use this standard to demonstrate compliance with EU machinery directives and support safe ground handling practices.

Related Standards

• EN 1915 Series (Parts 1-4): General requirements for aircraft ground support vehicles and equipment, including vibration measurement (EN 1915-3) and noise control (EN 1915-4).
• EN ISO 13850:2008: Safety of machinery principles for emergency stop functions, integrated into the safety requirements for air start equipment.
• EU Directive 2006/42/EC: Machinery directive relevant for conformity assessment and mandatory compliance for equipment within the European Economic Area.

SIST EN 12312-16:2005/kprA1:2008 serves as a vital reference in ensuring that air start equipment used in aviation ground support meets the highest international safety and operational efficiency standards. Compliance promotes safer ground operations, reduces environmental impact from noise and vibrations, and facilitates regulatory approval processes across Europe.
