kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 is a SIST publication of the service-robot safety standard ISO/FDIS 13482:2026. It specifies safety requirements for service robots used in personal and professional/commercial applications, including stationary, mobile and wearable service robots. The document is meant for designers, manufacturers, integrators, service providers, operators and assessors who need a common basis for hazard reduction, functional safety and user information.
What does kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 specify?
kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 sets safety requirements for service robots in personal service and professional service use. It focuses on hazards created by the robot, its motion, its control system, its interaction with people, and the information needed for safe use.
The scope is broad across service-robot types, but it is limited primarily to human safety. It applies to multiple intended uses when at least one intended use falls within scope.
The standard is organized into the following main clauses and annexes.
| Clause / annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| 1-3 | Scope, normative references, terms and definitions |
| 4 | General safety requirements for service robots |
| 5 | Additional requirements for wearable robots |
| 6 | Safety-related control system requirements |
| 7 | Verification and validation |
| 8 | Information for use |
| Annex A | Significant hazards for service robots |
| Annex B | Examples of operational spaces |
| Annex C | Safety function performance requirements and risk-estimation parameters |
| Annex D | Examples for determining PLr or required SIL |
| Annex E | Example implementation of a safeguarded space |
| Annex F | Examples of service robots |
| Annex G | Information for lifting load |
| Annex H | Example safety evaluation methods for lift boarding robots |
| Annex I | Example safety evaluation method for braking distance |
| Annex ZA | Relationship with Directive 2006/42/EC |
The standard does not apply to robots travelling faster than 20 km/h, robot toys, water-borne robots, flying robots, industrial robots and industrial robot applications, cleaning robots and lawn mowers covered by the listed appliance and machine standards, robots as medical devices, military or public force application robots, AGVs covered by ISO 3691-4:2023, or ACeTs covered by IEC 63281-2-2. It also does not provide requirements for road traffic participation or for transporting persons with service robots.
What are the key requirements of kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026?
kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 is built around risk assessment, risk reduction, functional safety and clear user information. In practice, it tells you how to identify hazards, decide which safety functions are needed, and document how the robot is made safe for its intended use.
Risk assessment and risk reduction
- Clause 4.1 requires a risk assessment according to ISO 12100:2010 for each service robot. The assessment may split the robot’s limits by environment, user group or task, but risks outside the current limit set still have to be considered. In practice, this means you need to define where and how the robot is allowed to operate, not just its nominal features.
- Clause 4 follows the three-step method from ISO 12100: inherently safe design, safeguarding and complementary protective measures, and information for use. That matters because safety is not only a hardware issue - the standard expects design choices, protective measures and user instructions to work together.
- Annex A gives a minimum hazard list for service-robot hazard identification. Attachments such as cleaning or disinfection tools must be included in the risk assessment, so the robot is assessed as it is actually used.
- Clause 4.1 also says that if risks are reduced by measures not described in the standard, those measures must achieve at least the same level of risk reduction. That allows alternative solutions, but only if they are justified to the same safety level.
Wearable robots
- Clause 5 adds requirements for wearable robots that assist lower-limb, upper-limb or trunk motions. It covers low-power wearable robots, non-invasive restraint parts, and assistance based on user inputs such as body movement or bioelectric signals.
- The clause addresses hazards from power loss, start-up and restart, physical stress, vibration, instability, collision or intended contact, donning and doffing, cleaning and disinfection, assistive forces, joint injuries and unharmonized motion. For practice, this means an exoskeleton or support suit must be checked against body loading, fit, motion range and the way the user enters and exits the device.
Safety-related control system and motion control
- Clause 6 defines the required performance of safety-related control systems. Annex C classifies safety functions as mandatory, conditional or optional and links them to the required performance level (PL) or safety integrity level (SIL). That is the document’s core engineering bridge between hazard analysis and controller design.
- Clause 6.4 allows software limits to define restricted spaces only if they can stop the robot at full rated load and speed. Active safety-limit settings must be recorded and changes must be identifiable and reviewable, which matters for commissioning, audit trails and later troubleshooting.
- Clauses 6.5, 6.7 and 6.8 cover speed control, stability control and force control. The standard expects the robot to stay below hazardous speed and force and to remain stable in intended use, which means the limits must be tied to actual motion, actual contact and actual operating conditions.
- Clauses 6.9 to 6.11 address singularities, emergency situations and lift interoperability. In practice, the robot must either avoid singularities, warn and stop before them, or control the motion through them, and it must interact with lifts only under risk-assessed boarding and collision conditions.
Interface, operating modes, verification and information for use
- Clauses 6.12 to 6.15 cover the user interface, manual control devices, operational modes, and cyber security and data privacy. The robot needs clear status indication, protection against unauthorized use, and mode changes that do not create unexpected motion.
- Clause 7 requires verification and validation after risk reduction. The methods listed include inspection, practical tests, measurements, observation during operation, examination of circuit diagrams and software, review of the task-based risk assessment, and review of layout drawings and related documents.
- Clause 8 requires markings, warnings, user manuals and service manuals that match the intended use. The information must be understandable in the sales country’s official language, and it must cover intended use, prohibited use, residual risks, stopping, fault handling, transport, storage, dismantling and maintenance. For users and service staff, that is the document that turns design intent into safe operation.
What terms does kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 define?
- service robot - a robot used in personal or professional use that performs useful tasks for humans or equipment.
- mobile service robot (MSR) - a service robot able to travel under its own control.
- wearable robot - a service robot fastened to a user’s body during use and physically assisting the user by supplementing or augmenting personal capabilities.
- autonomous mode - an operational mode in which the robot carries out its assigned mission without direct human intervention.
- command device - a device that enables the operator or user to control the robot.
- safeguarded space - the space in which the robot starts a safety-related function if a person or object is detected.
- protective stop space - the space in which the robot performs a protective stop if a person or object enters it.
- risk assessment - the overall process made up of risk analysis and risk estimation.
Who uses kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026?
kSIST FprEN ISO 13482:2026 is used by manufacturers, integrators and service providers to design the robot, choose safety functions, and write the technical file and manuals. It is also useful for quality, compliance and procurement teams that need to compare products or check whether a robot’s safety claims fit a use case.
The document is relevant to people who operate, maintain or validate service robots in places such as museums, shopping malls, hotels, hospitals, airports, offices, restaurants, elderly care facilities, farms and other controlled public or private spaces. Annex F shows example robot types such as mobile guide robots, delivery and serving robots, mobile manipulation robots, self-balancing robots, humanoid robots, stationary communication and manipulation robots, and wearable assist devices such as exoskeletons and walking aids.
