4 List of significant hazards
4.1 General
This clause contains all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, as far as they are dealt with in this
European Standard, identified by risk assessment as significant for this type of machinery and which require action
to eliminate or reduce the risk.
4.2 Mechanical hazards
The example shown in Figure 4 illustrates danger zones associated with these hazards:

2 Zone 2
3 Zone 3
4 Zone 4
5 Zone 5
Figure 4 — Danger zones
Zone 1: Access to trapping points between the lid and the hopper/tank:
— crushing hazard of fingers and hands between the edge hopper and the lid;
Zone 2: Access to the rotating devices through the feed opening:
— hazards of trapping and shearing of arms between the blades of mixing device and the hopper/tank;
Zone 3: Loss of stability of machine - access to areas adjacent to the machine:
— hazard of trapping and crushing of whole or part of body if machine overturns;
Zone 4: Access to high temperature surfaces:
— hazard of scalds and burns, in case of accidental contact;
Zone 5: Access to the rotating parts through the draw-off opening:
— hazard of trapping and shearing of arms between the blades of rotating device.
4.3 Electrical hazards
Hazard of electric shock from direct or indirect contact with live components. Hazard of external influences on
electrical equipment (e.g. cleaning with water). If liquids such as spilled products or cleaning agents such as water
come into contact with the electrical conductors, there is a danger of electric shock.
4.4 Thermal hazards
High temperature of external parts and hand operated components creates a hazard of scalds and burns. This
hazard can be present also when the machinery is switched off.

oSIST prEN 16881:2015
prEN 16881:2015 (E)
4.5 Hazards generated by noise
Machinery can generate an airborne noise being able to involve a deterioration of hearing or accidents due to the
interferences with the oral communication and the perception of the acoustical signals. The noise can produce:
— ringing in the ears;
— tiredness, stress, etc.;
— other effects as loss of balance, loss of perception;
— interference with speech communication;
— inability to hear acoustic warning signals.
4.6 Hazard generated by neglecting ergonomic principles
During operation, cleaning and maintenance, there could be the risk for safety and health resulting from awkward
body postures or from an excessive effort. Movement or filling of the bowl especially at heights can create a risk of
injury to the body from lifting, pushing and pulling of heavy loads.
4.7 Hazard generated by neglecting hygienic principles
The neglect of hygienic principles can create unacceptable contamination of foodstuff and therefore a risk to human
health of the operator and consumer, i.e. through physical, chemical or microbial pollution.
4.8 Hazards generated by loss of stability or tipping
Risk of impact or crushing the body, in particular resulting from machinery with castors.
5 Safety and hygiene requirements and/or protective measures
5.1 General
Machinery shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100:2010 for hazard relevant but not
significant, which are not dealt with by this standard (e.g. sharp edges). This specific risk assessment shall be part of
the general risk assessment of the machine. When fixed guard, or parts of the machine acting as such, are not
permanently fixed, e.g. by welding, their fixing systems shall remain attached to the guards or to the machinery when
the guards are removed.
5.2 Mechanical hazards
5.2.1 Elimination of hazards by design
Unless otherwise specified, interlocking guards shall be at least interlocking without guard blocking as defined in
EN ISO 14119:2013, 4.2, and they shall comply with EN ISO 14119:2013, Clause 5, 7 and 8. Access to dangerous
zones of drive shafts, coupling between the motor and the reduction gear and transmission belts shall be prevented
by fixed guards or movable interlocking guards in accordance with EN 953. Any gaps between moving parts and
fixed parts of the machinery shall be so arranged that either it is not possible for a finger to enter the gap (i.e. a gap
of 6 mm or less) or the gap shall be sufficiently large to prevent trapping and crushing in accordance with
EN 349:1993+A1:2008, Table 1. The safety related parts of the control system shall meet at least a performance
level “c” defined in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1:2008. Openings in guards shall comply with
EN ISO 13857:2008, Table 4.

5.2.2 Zone 1 – Access to trapping points between the lid and the hopper/tank
Covers of hopper/tank when in opening position shall have a device keeping the covers in a stable position to
prevent unintentional closing (i.e. with balancing systems). The speed of closure of the lids, having a mass greater
than 2,8 kg, shall not be greater than 50 mm/s when the distance from the hopper/tank to the front edge of the lid is
less than 200 mm. Powered lid shall be operated by a hold-to-run control device in conformity to
EN 574:1996+A1:2008, 5.4.1, and shall remain in their position in case of power failure.
5.2.3 Zone 2 – Access to the rotating devices through the feed opening
Access to the zone in which it moves the rotary mixer shall be prevented by a lid/guard interlocked with guard
locking (see EN ISO 14119:2013, 4.3). Openings and/or slides in cover or in the hopper/tank shall be in accordance
with EN ISO 13857:2008, 4.5. For small openings shall be used EN ISO 13857:2008, Table 4. The interlocking
device of the lid shall operate at a maximum opening of the lid of 30 mm.
5.2.4 Zone 3 – Loss of stability of machine/access to areas adjacent to the machine
Machines shall be designed to be stable. For machines designed to be fixed to the floor, the instruction handbook
shall indicate the values of forces at the fixing points and the dimensions of the anchor points provided. Free
standing machines without castors shall not fall or tip over when tilted 10° from the horizontal plane in the most
unfavourable direction and containing the most unfavourable load. Free standing machines with castors shall have
at least two castors (or sets of castors) fitted with a locking device to prevent rolling or turni
