This document describes all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relating to plating and anodizing lines, when used as intended and in compliance with the foreseeable conditions of the manufacturer. In addition, procedures for testing and measuring safety requirements, marking of equipment and minimum operation requirements are specified.
For reference to plating lines and anodizing lines the term plating line is used in this document.
This document applies to the design and construction of plating lines and anodizing lines including its transporter systems for surface treatment of industrial products by means of inorganic or organic electrolytes or by means of other process chemistries.
Plating lines and anodizing lines in terms of this standard are arrangements of process tanks for:
-   electrolytic treatment of work pieces (e.g. electrocleaning, passivation, electroetching, burnishing, electrolytic polishing and brightening, drying);
-   wet chemical treatment of work pieces (e.g. degreasing, passivation, chemical polishing, etching, pickling, blackening);
-   electrolytic and electro-less metal deposition, even on non-metallic work pieces made electrically conductive by corresponding treatment;

-   anodizing (anodic oxidation);
including rinsing tanks and the corresponding transporter equipment (e.g. transporter systems, handling gantry, bean, etc.), where the products are lifted in and out of tanks.
This document distinguishes between the following types of plating lines:
-   Type 1:    manual lines;
-   Type 2:    semi-automatic lines;
-   Type 3:    fully automatic lines.
Furthermore, it specifies equipment marking and requirements on user information.
This document does not deal with hazards resulting from plating linesparts above category 1 of PED (Pressure Equipment Directive).

This document specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardised conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the airborne noise emission of surface treatment machines as stated in Annex A. Surface treatment machines include but are not limited to
-   machines for cleaning and pre-treatment of industrial item surfaces,
-   machinery for coating and colour mixing,
-   coating plants
and
-   dryers, ovens and evaporating equipment.
This document describes the determination of emission sound pressure levels at work stations or other specified positions as well as the determination of sound power levels for surface treatment machines as stated in Annex A. This can be small single units (e.g. handheld atomising spraying equipment) and also complex machines with large dimensions (e.g. machines for cleaning and pre-treatment of industrial item surfaces, spray booths, dryers), which could also be linked.
In case of very large machines as defined in 3.10 the determination of sound power level may be very complicated or cannot be done with a reasonable amount of work. Therefore in this document, the measurement for very large machines is simplified by determining an averaged emission sound pressure level instead of the sound power level.
This document specifies noise measurement methods, installation/mounting and operation conditions that shall be used for the test. The use of this document ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the noise emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic noise measurement method used (see 5.1 and 6.1). Noise measurement methods allowed by this document are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).

This European Standard applies to the design and construction of spraying equipment for both manual and automatic application of liquid, paste (semi-solid) and powder coating materials. The manual equipment is hand-held and the automatic equipment is operated by auxiliary signals and mounted either rigidly or onto automated devices such as robots, or reciprocating or rotary machines.
The coating material may be atomised by air, by airless, by airless with the assistance of air or mechanically by centrifugal force. With atomisation by centrifugal force, the atomised coating material may be assisted towards the workpiece by controlled air veils.
The atomising and spraying equipment may also be electrostatically supported.
This standard specifically refers to hazards created by or resulting from the use of atomising and spraying equipment, if it is used as determined and in accordance with the foreseeable conditions of the manufacturer (see clause 4).
Atomising and spraying equipment may be linked with supply systems, control circuits, spray booths and/or automated machinery, none of which are covered by the scope of this standard. This may result in the overlapping of some hazards or risks. Such hazards or risks should be taken into consideration when specifying and installing the atomising and spraying equipment.
Further topics for this standard are minimum user information:
-   Operation manuals,
-   Marking.
This standard excludes:
-   Flocking machines;
-   Equipment related to the atomising and spraying of foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals;
-   Artists airbrushes;
-   Machinery for the supply and/or circulation of coating materials under pressure;
-   Automated devices such as robots, reciprocating or rotary machines.

This standard specifies all the information necessary to carry out efficiently and under standardised conditions the determination, declaration and verification of the airborne noise emission of surface treatment machines as stated in annex A. Surface treatment machines include such as but not limited to
¾ machines for cleaning and pretreatment of industrial item surfaces,
¾ machinery for coating and colour mixing,
¾ coating plants
and
¾ dryers, ovens and evaporating equipment.
This standard describes the determination of emission sound pressure levels at work stations or other specified positions as well as the determination of sound power levels for surface treatment machines as stated in annex A. This can be small single units (e.g. handheld atomising spraying equipment) and also complex machines with large dimensions (e.g. machines for cleaning and pretreatment of industrial item surfaces, spray booths, dryers), which could also be linked.
In case of very large machines as defined in 3.10 the determination of sound power level may be very complicated or cannot be done with a reasonable amount of work. Therefore in this standard, the measurement for very large machines is simplified by determining an averaged emission sound pressure level instead of the sound power level.
This standard specifies noise measurement methods, installation/mounting and operation conditions that shall be used for the test. The use of this standard ensures the reproducibility of the determination of the noise emission characteristics within specified limits determined by the grade of accuracy of the basic noise measurement method used (see 5.1 and 6.1). Noise measurement methods allowed by this standard are engineering methods (grade 2) and survey methods (grade 3).

This document deals with the significant hazards of machines for surface cleaning and pre-treatment - in the following called "cleaning machines" - of industrial items using flammable cleaning liquids or a mixture of cleaning liquids, even in emulsion form, which can potentially create, even temporarily, a condition of flammability.
This document applies in combination with prEN 12921-1:2004. Both parts together cover all significant hazards relevant for cleaning machines of industrial items using liquids or vapours, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). The specific requirements specified in this document take precedence over the respective requirements of prEN 12921-1:2004.
To the extend of this document the terms combustible materials and flammable substance and explosive are equivalently used.
NOTE 1   The condition of flammability can be generated only when molecules of the fluid are in intimate contact with oxygen from the air. Ignition is possible when: the fluid generates a concentration of vapour in air, or: the flammable fluid is present as a suspension of fine droplets in air (aerosol).
NOTE 2   In practice, fires and explosions differ by the size and intensity of the reaction, and by the instantaneous effects on the environment.
This document does not apply to machinery and related equipment excluded from the scope of
prEN 12921-1:2004.
This document is not applicable to cleaning machines of industrial items using flammable cleaning liquids which are manufactured before the publication of this document by CEN.
