  This part of ISO 16119 specifies general requirements for the design and performance of sprayers, as defined in ISO 5681, with regard to minimizing the potential risk of environmental contamination during use, including misuse foreseeable by the manufacturer. It also specifies the requirements for identification of the sprayer and certain of its components, and the minimum content of the instruction handbook.; It is intended to be used with each of the other parts of ISO 16119, which give requirements specific to particular types of sprayers (see Annex A). This part of ISO 16119 is applicable to all types of sprayers used in agriculture, horticulture, forestry and other areas, except knapsack sprayers. It does not cover safety aspects (see ISO 4254 6).; • Scope out liquid fertilizer application; • Adding Part 5 - Aerial sprayers; • Instruction handbook content; • Annex A, table with techniques needs to be updated. ; • Additional standards for application equipment listed in Annex A and covered by mandate M435 and M471 of the EC shall be developed.

Introduction
It is important that biological, ecological and economic considerations are taken into account when carrying
out plant protection by spraying. For this, a comprehensive knowledge of liquids for spraying — including
the limitations of their use — and suitable sprayers are necessary.
EN ISO 16119 gives the minimum requirements for sprayers when used to apply plant protection products,
with particular emphasis on minimizing environmental damage, focusing on
— the deposition of liquid on the target and distribution,
— a minimization of the unintentional spreading of plant protection products into the surrounding
environment, and
— an improvement in the use and operation of equipment used to apply plant protection products.

Part 1:
General
1 Scope
This part of EN ISO 16119 specifies general requirements for the design and performance of sprayers, as
defined in EN ISO 5681, with regard to minimizing the potential risk of environmental contamination during
use, including misuse foreseeable by the manufacturer. It also specifies the requirements for identification
of the sprayer and certain of its components, and the minimum content of the operator’s manual.
It is intended to be used with each of the other parts of EN ISO 16119, which give requirements specific to
particular types of sprayers (see Annex A). This part of EN ISO 16119 is applicable to all types of sprayers
used in agriculture, horticulture, forestry and other areas, except knapsack sprayers. It does not cover safety
aspects (see EN ISO 4254-6).
NOTE Knapsack sprayers are covered by EN ISO 19932 and knapsack combustion engine-driven airblast sprayers
(knapsack mistblowers) are covered by EN ISO 28139, which deal with safety as well as environmental aspects.
Unmanned agricultural aerial sprayers are covered by EN ISO 23117.
This part of EN ISO 16119 is not applicable to sprayers manufactured before the date of its publication.
