Overview

EN 62841-3-6:2014/A12:2022 is a CENELEC amendment to the European safety standard for transportable diamond drills with liquid systems. Approved 16 May 2022, this amendment (A12) clarifies requirements for liquid systems used on transportable diamond drilling machines and updates supply-cord requirements. The document forms part of the EN 62841 series for electric motor‑operated hand‑held and transportable tools and supports conformity with EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC within its scope.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and hazards: Confirms the document covers all significant hazards, hazardous situations or events relevant to the tools in scope, and notes which essential requirements are deemed not applicable.
• Liquid system clarifications: Introduces specific clarifications on the safety and design considerations for liquid systems used with diamond drills (e.g., circulation and containment aspects are addressed in the amendment text).
• Supply cords (Table 8): Replaces the minimum cross‑section table for external flexible supply cords. Minimum nominal cross‑section areas by rated current:
  • Up to and including 6 A: 0.75 mm²
  • Over 6 to 10 A: 1 mm²
  • Over 10 to 16 A: 1.5 mm²
  • Over 16 to 25 A: 2.5 mm²
  • Over 25 to 32 A: 4 mm²
  • Over 32 to 40 A: 6 mm²
  • Over 40 to 63 A: 10 mm²
• Normative references: Replaces references to IEC 62841-1:2014 with EN 62841-1:2015 (including applicable corrigenda/amendments).
• Moisture resistance: Removes specific notes in clause 14.5 related to moisture resistance testing.
• Annex updates: Updates Annex ZA (normative references alignment with international publications) and Annex ZZ (relationship to Directive 2006/42/EC), clarifying presumption of conformity and covered essential requirements.

Practical applications

• Product design and development: Use the amendment to ensure transportable diamond drills with liquid systems meet updated safety and electrical connection requirements.
• Testing and certification: Test labs and conformity assessors apply the clarified moisture and liquid‑system provisions and the updated supply‑cord table during type testing and CE marking assessments.
• Technical documentation and instructions: Manufacturers update user instructions, warnings and technical files to reflect the amended normative references and hazard coverage.
• Procurement and compliance: Safety managers and procurement teams rely on the standard to specify compliant equipment for construction, masonry and stone‑working applications.

Who should use this standard

• Manufacturers of transportable diamond drills and accessory liquid systems
• Safety engineers and product compliance specialists
• Test laboratories, notified bodies and conformity assessors
• Technical authors preparing instructions, declarations of conformity and product specifications

Related standards

• EN 62841-1:2015 (Part 1: General requirements) - normative reference
• Directive 2006/42/EC - Annex ZZ maps essential requirements covered by this standard
