Foreword
This document (EN 1760-1:1997+A1:2009) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 114 “Safety
of machinery”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by December 2009.
This document includes Amendment 1, approved by CEN on 2009-02-22.
This document supersedes EN 1760-1:1997.
The start and finish of text introduced or altered by amendment is indicated in the text by tags ! ".
!This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annexes ZA and ZB, which are integral parts of this
document."
This is the first part of a multi-part type B standard which will cover safety devices that detect the presence of
a person through the application of a pressure or force by a part of the person's body. After actuation the
safety devices give a stop command which is used by the control system of the machine to provide protection
for the person who caused the device to be actuated.
The other parts of the standard will cover:
Part 2: General principles for the design and testing of pressure sensitive edges and pressure sensitive
bars (in preparation)
Part 3: General principles for the design and testing of pressure sensitive bumpers (in preparation)
The informative annex A presents timing diagrams for devices with and without reset. The notes in informative
annex B provide guidance regarding application. It is recommended that the supplier and customer liaise to
examine carefully the constraints presented by the application before placing an order for the equipment.
The safeguarding of machinery !(see 3.20 of EN ISO 12100-1:2003)" can be achieved by many different
means. These means include guards which prevent access to the danger zone by means of a physical barrier
(e.g. fixed guards to !EN 953" and interlocking guards to EN 1088); and protective devices, (e.g. electro-
sensitive protective equipment to !EN 61496-1" and pressure-sensitive protective devices to this
standard).
Type C standards makers and designers of machinery/installations should consider the best way to achieve
the required level of safety taking into account the intended application and the results of the risk assessment
(see !EN ISO 14121-1").
The best solution may combine several of these different means. It is recommended that the
machinery/installation supplier and the user examine together carefully the existing constraints before making
their decision on the choice of safeguarding means.
The notes in informative annex C give guidance regarding the design of pressure sensitive mats and pressure
sensitive floors. Informative annex D gives guidance for installation, commissioning and testing. Informative
annex E contains bibliography.

Introduction
Pressure sensitive protective devices are used in a wide variety of applications with different conditions of use
relating, for example, to extremes of loading, electrical, physical and chemical environments. They are
interfaced with the machine controls to ensure that the machine reverts to a safe condition if the pressure
sensitive device is actuated.
Each type of application presents particular hazards. It is not the intention of this standard to identify those
hazards nor to recommend specific methods of application to particular machines. This is normally the
function of machine specific standards.
1 Scope
This Standard specifies requirements for pressure sensitive mats and floors normally actuated by the feet for
use as safety devices to protect persons from dangerous machinery. The minimum safety requirements for
the performance, marking and documentation are given.
The Standard covers pressure sensitive mats and floors, regardless of type of energy used, e.g. electrical,
hydraulic, pneumatic or mechanical.
This standard covers mats and floors designed to detect:
a) Persons weighing more than 35 kg;
b) And persons (e.g. children) weighing more than 20 kg.
The detection of persons weighing less than 20 kg is not covered by this standard.
This European Standard does not specify the dimensions or the configuration of the effective sensing area of
pressure sensitive mat(s) or floor(s) in relation to any particular application.

following apply."
3.1
pressure sensitive mat
a safety device !(see 3.26.5 of EN ISO 12100-1:2003)" which detects a person standing on it or who
steps onto it. It comprises a sensor(s) which responds to the application of pressure and a control unit, and
one or more output signal switching device(s) (see figure 1).
In a pressure sensitive mat the effective sensing area is deformed locally when the sensor(s) is actuated.
3.2
