Introduction
This standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this standard.
For machines designed and built according to the specifications of this Type C Standard the following applies:
"When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards,
the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards for
machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard."
When this standard was prepared it was assumed that:
 only trained staff would operate, repair or maintain the machine;
 components without special requirements are
1) sized in accordance with good engineering practice and methods of calculation including all types of
failure;
2) correctly constructed mechanically and electrically;
3) made of materials of adequate loading capacity and of suitable quality;
4) made of materials that are fit for that purpose.
 components are kept in a good repair and operating condition so that the required characteristics can be
maintained in spite of wear and tear;
 sizing of load bearing parts ensures safe operation of the machine in a loading range from 0 % to 100 %
of the nominal capacity and during testing conditions if applicable;
 details of particular conditions of use and the installation site are agreed between user and manufacturer;
 working area is adequately illuminated;
 installation site permits safe operation of the machine.

1 Scope
1.1 This European Standard deals with the safety requirements for the following types of power-operated
storage equipment:
 storage carousels;
 storage lifts;
 mobile shelving, pallet racking and cantilever racking
with the objective of eliminating or minimising the hazards described in Clause 4. These hazards can arise
during installation, starting up, operation, maintenance, testing and dismantling of the equipment.
1.2 It is essential that the safety requirements and/or measures taken in this standard be applied to storage
equipment which operates indoors. Under difficult conditions, it is essential that additional hazard analysis and
safety measures be taken into account, e. g. outdoor conditions, freezer applications, high temperatures,
corrosive environment, strong magnetic fields, risk of explosive atmosphere, radioactive conditions, storage
goods which due to their nature could generate hazardous situations (e. g. molten metal, acids/alkalis, fragile
goods or explosives), effects of earthquakes and also contact with food.
1.3 Examples of power-operated storage equipment to which this standard applies are shown in Annex A.
1.4 With regard to buildings and parts of buildings, this standard applies only insofar that an assessment
regarding hazards and risks in connection with interfaces to the storage equipment is carried out.
1.5 Storage equipment whose only power source is directly used human labour or gravity are excluded
from the scope of application of this standard.
1.6 Power-operated storage equipment or parts of them do not fall under the regulations for passenger lifts.
They are intended to handle and store goods. They are not intended to transport passengers under normal
use (except for maintenance) and therefore not considered to be lifts (elevators).
1.7 This standard does not take hazards into account, which arise from noisy environments or
environments subject to electromagnetic interference outside the range quoted in EN 61000-6-2.
