CEN/TC 188/WG 4 - Technical specifications for steel cord conveyor belting

This document specifies three methods for the measurement of total belt thickness and the thickness of covers of steel cord conveyor belts.
Methods A1 and A2 (micrometer methods) can be used for all steel cord conveyor belts for the measurement of both total belt thickness and cover thickness.
Method B (optical method) is intended for the measurement of cover thickness only. It is not suitable if there is a textile or metal weft, nor if the ends of the steel cords become twisted when cut.

ISO 15236-3:2017 specifies the performance and constructional requirements applicable to conveyor belts for underground mining having steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The requirements for design and construction apply to the design of single belts, as well as the design of complete type series such as those covered in ISO 15236‑2.
Steel cord belts in accordance with this document are intended for use underground in coal mines and in other applications where the highest demands for safety against fire and explosion hazards have to be complied with.
NOTE          At present, the requirements can only be met by the use of compounds based on chloroprene rubber for the covers, as well as for the bonding rubber.

ISO 15236-2:2017 specifies preferred types of conveyor belts with steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The belt type series in this document are based on the general requirements for construction given in ISO 15236‑1.

ISO 15236-1:2016 specifies the performance and constructional requirements applicable to conveyor belts having steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The requirements for construction given in Clause 6 apply to the design of single belts, as well as the design of complete type series such as those covered in ISO 15236‑2.

ISO 15236-4:2004 specifies design, dimensions, requirements and marking of vulcanized joints for steel cord conveyor belts.

This European Standard specifies methods for the determination of the mean lateral displacement between cords, and for the determination of the vertical displacement of cords relative to a mean level of steel cords within a conveyor belt as described in prEN ISO 15236-1.

ISO 7590:2009 specifies three methods for the measurement of total belt thickness and the thickness of covers of steel cord conveyor belts.
Methods A1 and A2 (micrometer methods) can be used for all steel cord conveyor belts for the measurement of both total belt thickness and cover thickness.
Method B (optical method) is recommended for the measurement of cover thickness only. It is not suitable if there is a textile or metal weft, nor if the ends of the steel cords become twisted when cut.

ISO 15236-3:2007 specifies the performance and constructional requirements applicable to conveyor belts for underground mining having steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The requirements for design and construction apply to the design of single belts as well as the design of complete type series such as those covered in ISO 15236-2.
Steel cord belts in accordance with ISO 15236-3:2007 are intended for use underground in coal mines and in other applications where the highest demands for safety against fire and explosion hazards have to be complied with.

ISO 15236-2:2004 specifies preferred types of conveyor belts with steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The belt-type series in ISO 15236-2:2004 are based on the general requirements for construction given in ISO 15236-1.

ISO 15236-1:2005 specifies the performance and constructional requirements applicable to conveyor belts having steel cords in the longitudinal direction as reinforcement. The requirements for construction given in Clause 6 apply to the design of single belts as well as the design of complete type series such as those covered in ISO 15236-2.
