1 Scope
This European Standard contains the safety-related requirements, testing procedures, and markings for hoses,
hose lines, and connectors as well as for safety mechanisms applied to interconnect lines and to safeguard
the connections from the pressure generator to the spraying device on hose lines for the application of high-
pressure cleaners, high-pressure water jet machines, and water jet cutters in accordance with EN 1829, part 1,
in which the maximum allowable working pressure is more than 250 bar.
All references to high pressure water jet machines within this European Standard shall also include high
pressure cleaners. The word "spray" is used for spraying as well as for cutting procedures.
For machines of similar application that are outside of the scope of this European Standard and for which
there is no alternative European Standard available, the relevant clauses of this European Standard may be
used where applicable.
The high pressure water jet machines treated by this standard are mainly intended for use in industrial
applications such as:
- Cleaning
- Readjustment of concrete
- Cutting applications
This European Standard does not apply to high pressure water jet machines which are dealt with in EN
60335-2-54 and EN 60335-2-79.
This European Standard deals with technical safety requirements to minimise the hazards listed in clause 4
which can arise from constructing, assembling, erecting, operating and servicing of high pressure water jet
machines.
This European Standard does not cover specific situations where high pressure water jet machines are
incorporated within other installations.
This European Standard does not cover specific hazards associated with explosive atmospheres, use on
ships or specific temperatures (less than 5 °C or higher than 40 °C).
Any hazard due to the nature of fluid other than that due to pressure is excluded from the scope of this
standard.
This European Standard applies to high pressure water jet machines that were manufactured/introduced to
the market after the date of publication of this standard.

4 List of hazards
4.1 General
This clause contains all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, as far as they are dealt
within this standard, identified by risk assessment as significant for this type of machinery and which requires
action to eliminate or reduce the risk.
4.2 Hazards due to bursting or leaking of hose lines
Hazard can occur when a hose line bursts or leaks, The escaping stream of liquid can cause physical damage,
and also cause a sudden repositioning of the hose line in a dangerous manner.
The hazard due to scalding from hot liquid, or from irritation / burning of any added chemicals is not covered in
this European Standard.
4.3 Hazards due to a hot medium inside the hose line
Hazardous situations can occur when the hot surface of a hose line is touched (burns).
4.4 Hazards due to hose line repositioning
Hazardous situations can also occur when the operator loses their firm hold and when there is a loss of
operational control due to extreme movements of the hose line (whip).
4.5 Hazards due to failure of connectors and components used to connect hose lines
Hazardous situations can occur when connectors between two hose lines come off, fracture, or are torn off
and cause a spray of liquid and / or the hose line to flap like a whip.

4.6 Hazards due to poor connection between the safety mechanism and the hose line
Hazardous situations can occur when the hose line has come off accidentally or when the connector has been
torn off unintentionally and the subsequent failure of a safety mechanism or it’s fixing to the hose line
malfunction.
Note This is a second level failure and the probability is very small.
4.7 Hazards due to a failure of the fixing device
Hazardous situations can occur when the hose line comes off accidentally or when the hose line has been
torn off unintentionally and failure of the fixing device (e.g. fracture of the device, accidental disengaging,
missing safeguard against accidental disengaging).
Note This is a second level failure and the probability is very small.
5 Requirements
5.1 General requirements
Hoses, hose lines, and connectors have to feature a certain structure in order to guarantee safe operation
when used properly. They must not bear any risks for the operator or for the workplace and its environment.
However, improper use of a hose line or the connectors may result in hazardous situations and must be
avoided.
The hoses, connectors and fittings combined to hose lines have to match each other in terms of structure,
composition, and design.
The design of any safety mechanisms to protect interconnected hose lines and to safeguard spraying device
connections and pressure generator connections of hose lines has to provide safe operational performance to
eliminate any risk or hazard for the operator or their environment. However, improper use of a hose line or the
connectors may result in hazardous situations and must be avoided.
5.2 Mechanical requirements
All components of a hose line as well as the particular connectors shall be capable of withstanding at least the
hose test pressure
5.3 Requirements concerning the maximum allowable working pressure for the hose line
The maximum allowable working pressure shall not exceed 40% of the minimum bursting pressure of the
particular parts and devices.
5.4 Thermal requirements
The design of the hose lines connectors and fittings shall comply with the regulations as stated in EN 563
concerning the workplace when subjected to the maximum operating temperature of the liquid.
None of the parts of the hose line and connections that can be touched during normal operation shall exceed
the temperature limits of Table 1.
If the temperature of other surfaces can exceed the values in Table 1 during normal operation, measures
should be taken to reduce the risk of contacting such surfaces. If this is not possible then warnings to the user
/ operator shall be given.
