Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered
are indicated in the scope of this document.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in the case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the other
standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C
standard. The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this document.
While preparing this document, it was assumed that:
— only trained and competent persons operate the machine;
— components without specific requirements are:
— designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation code;
— of sound mechanical construction;
— free of defects;
— components are kept in good working condition / order;
— a negotiation took place between the user and the manufacturer concerning the use of the machinery.

NOTE Some components are dealt with in other parts of this standard.
This document applies to hydraulic and electro hydraulic control devices at ambient temperatures from
–10 °C to 60 °C.
This document identifies and takes into account:
— possible hazards which can be caused by the operation of hydraulic and electro hydraulic control
devices;
— areas and operating conditions which can create such hazards;
— hazardous situations which can cause injury or can be damaging to health;
— hazards which can be caused by firedamp and/or combustible dusts.
This document describes methods for the reduction of these hazards.
A list of significant hazards covered appears in Clause 4.
This document does not specify any additional requirements for:
— use in particularly corrosive environments;
— hazards occurring during construction, transportation, decommissioning;
— earthquakes.
A complete hydraulic powered roof support consists of the support units (EN 1804-1:2020), legs and
support rams (EN 1804-2:2020) and the hydraulic and electro hydraulic controls (EN 1804-3:2020).
Each part of this multipart document addresses the safety requirements of the components mentioned
in the scopes of the respective parts of this multipart series.
This document is not applicable to hydraulic and electro hydraulic control systems manufactured before
the date of its publication.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1804-3:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 196 “Mining
machinery and equipment - Safety”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1804-3:2006+A1:2010.
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 Annex ZA, which is (are) an integral part of this
document.
The main differences between this document and EN 1804-3:2006+A1:2010 are as follows:
a) Normative references (updated);
b) Terms and definitions (revised/modified/enhanced);
c) List of significant hazards (revised/enhanced);
d) Requirements for automatic hydraulic functions (deleted);
e) Requirements for in- and inter-shield hose routing (added);
f) Requirements for pipe and hose assemblies (updated);
g) Requirements for type “A” valves (modified);
h) Requirements for electro hydraulic control systems (added);

Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered
are indicated in the scope of this document.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in the case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the other
standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C
standard. The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this document.
While preparing this document, it was assumed that:
— only trained and competent persons operate the machine;
— components without specific requirements are:
a) designed in accordance with the usual engineering practice and calculation code;
b) of sound mechanical construction;
c) free of defects;
— components are kept in good working condition / order;
— a negotiation took place between the user and the manufacturer concerning the use of the machinery.

1 Scope
This document specifies the safety requirements for hydraulic and electro hydraulic control devices,
including hydraulic valves and their control elements, valve combinations, control systems, pipes and
hose assemblies, fittings, shut-off devices, measuring devices, filters, built-in pressure limiting and check
valves in legs and rams and water spraying and dust suppression valves, as well emergency stop, start
warning, locking- and control unit when used as specified by the manufacturer or his authorized
representative. Excluded are pressure generators, and internal valves of legs and rams (e.g. leg bottom
valves, see EN 1804-2).
NOTE Some components are dealt with in other parts of this standard.
This document applies to hydraulic and electro hydraulic control devices at ambient temperatures from
–10 °C to 60 °C.
This document identifies and takes into account:
— possible hazards which may be caused by the operation of hydraulic and electro hydraulic control
devices;
— areas and operating conditions which may create such hazards;
— hazardous situations which may cause injury or may be damaging to health;
— hazards which may be caused by firedamp and/or combustible dusts.
This document describes methods for the reduction of these hazards.
A list of significant hazards covered appears in Clause 4.
This document does not specify any additional requirements for:
— use in particularly corrosive environments;
— hazards occurring during construction, transportation, decommissioning;
— earthquakes.
This document is applicable to all hydraulic and electro hydraulic control unit placed on the market for
the first time and which are manufactured after the date on which this standard was published.
