NOTE 2 In general, the mixing machinery consists of a cabinet (as framework) with several shelves on which the mixing places are arranged. The number of shelves and mixing places depend on the volume of the container. The mixing places could be occupied by container of standardized mixing coating materials with a capacity between 1 l and 10 l. The container is closed by a stirring lid. The stirring lids generally consist of a unit with stirrer, lid and drive (e.g. clamp or rack-wheel) which are put on the open container of the coating materials. The lids are fixed by the pressing and turning of fixing clamps and ensure mixing process only in totally closed container. The stirrer can be powered e.g. via a clamp drive by a motor powered special shaft or via belt or worm drive. In general this is an electric motor, but also air driven motors are used, especially for installations in hazardous explosive environments. Furthermore the mixing machinery is equipped with a control unit with programmable timer controlling the mixing time (in most cases several times a day) of the closed stirring container. By fitting the side cowling moving parts of the power drive can be protected. Another standard equipment of mixing cabinets is drip trays for the coating materials. If necessary, the mixing machinery is equipped with lighting. SIST EN 12757-1:2006+A1:2010

EN 12757-1:2005+A1:2010 (E) 11 4.2 Mechanical hazards 4.2.1 Crushing, shearing, entanglement, drawing-in or trapping These hazards are related to physical contact with fixed or moving parts of the mixing machinery such as: drive units; shafts; agitators and/or stirrers; vibrating or shaking containers; insufficient safety distances; Instability of mobile mixing machinery causing tipping or moving. NOTE Such hazards may occur by an unexpected start-up due to pre-programmed cycles within the mixing machinery. 4.2.2 High pressure fluid ejection These hazards are related to: escaping pressurised liquid coating materials or compressed air; rupture of housing, piping or joints due to failure, breakdown, vibrations, corrosion. 4.2.3 Loss of stability (of the mixing machinery and its parts) These hazards are related to, e.g. improper positioning of the mixing machinery; overload; overfilling. 4.3 Electrical hazards 4.3.1
Electrical shock (by direct or indirect contact) Such hazards can occur, for instance by touching: electrically live parts that are non insulated for operational reasons; conductive parts which are not at a dangerous voltage under normal operation, but in the case of failure could be; electrically live parts when the insulation is damaged by contact with solvents or by mechanical parts. 4.3.2 External influence on electrical equipment hazard Such hazards can occur, for instance when interaction of the electromagnetic high voltage equipment with construction elements of the control and safety systems can cause dangerous malfunctions for instance, short circuits on electronic safety circuits, entrance guards, alarm units.

EN 12757-1:2005+A1:2010 (E) 12 4.4 Noise hazards Hazardous noise levels can be reached for instance by noise emission of pumps, handling devices, compressed air equipment (motors, valves etc.) when the coating and/or auxiliary materials are processed in the mixing machinery. Noise can cause hearing impairment, and accidents to operators of the machine or persons working near it due to interference with verbal communication and with perception of acoustic danger signals, extra-auditory effects, shock reactions. 4.5 Hazards generated by dangerous substances 4.5.1 Hazards resulting from contact with/or absorption of dangerous substances Such hazards can be generated by contact with/or absorption of organic liquid coating materials, solvents, cleaning agents causing skin and eye damage, dermatitis or allergies. 4.5.2 Hazards resulting from inhalation of dangerous substances Such hazards can be generated by inhalation of aerosols and solvent vapours released by organic liquid coating materials. 4.6 Fire and explosion hazards generated by coating and/or auxiliary materials used by the mixing machinery Such hazards are generated by flammable coating and/or auxiliary materials as a vapour, suspension of fine droplets and/or explosive mixtures together with sources of ignition. Examples of flammable substances which increase the concentration above normal are: not allowable working temperature leading to the formation of flammable vapours; failure of hoses, pipes and/or fittings with exit of flammable substances; auto-ignition caused by chemical reactions between different types of liquid coating materials. Examples of ignition sources are: hot surfaces e.g. of heating and/or electrical equipment; sparks created by mechanically induced energy e.g. fans, agitators; electrostatic discharges; electrical sparks; welding and other sources of thermal energy used during maintenance and cleaning. 4.7 Hazards caused by failure of energy supply These hazards are related to: failure, malfunction of control system (unexpected start-up, heating system failure); failure of forced ventilation, if applicable; unexpected ejection of coating materials; missing guards; SIST EN 12757-1:2006+A1:2010
EN 12757-1:2005+A1:2010 (E) 13 missing displays or warnings. 4.8 Hazards related to failure of control systems These hazards may lead to: accumulation of vapours caused by breakdown of forced ventilation; unexpected overrun. 5 Safety requirements and/or measures 5.1 General The mixing machinery shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this document. In addition it shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100 for hazards relevant but not significant which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges). 5.2 Safety requirements and measures against mechanical hazards 5.2.1 Safety measures against crushing, shearing, entanglement, drawing-in or trapping Moving parts such as vibrators, shakers, stirrers and components of the drive unit shall be designed and safeguarded in such a way that in normal operation and maintenance crushing, entanglement, drawing-in or trapping, impact cannot occur. EN 294, EN 349, EN 811, EN 842, ISO 3864-1, EN 619 and EN 953 shall be taken into account. Where this is not possible, exposed moving parts shall be protected by fixed guards, permanent enclosures or interlocking guards in accordance with EN 953 and EN 1088. !When fixed guards are applied, they shall be fixed by systems that can be opened or removed only with tools. Their fixing systems shall remain attached to the guards or to the machinery when the guards are removed. Where possible, these guards shall be designed in such a way that they can only remain in place using their fixing system." Agitators, the stirrers of which can be moved out of the movable containers, shall be equipped with an interlocking device (see 3.26.1 of EN ISO 12100-1:2003) according category 3 of EN 954-1 and shall be designed in such a way that they can only be switched on if the stirrer is inside the container. If, for operational reasons, any of the above requirements cannot be fulfilled, specific measures to ensure safe operation of the mixing machinery shall be provided such as, but not limited to: lockable actuator; trip device; slip clutch; shear pin; special design of the stirrers; torque limiters. The coating material container shall be secured against rotating during the stirring operation by either a firm stand or a fixing device for the container. SIST EN 12
