24、ther hazards. !Their extensive use justifies the need for a standard covering both safety and the hazards to food hygiene.“ !deleted text“ !This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.“ The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events

25、 are covered are indicated in the scope of this standard. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designe

26、d and built according o the provisions of this type C standard. BS EN 12853:2001+A1:2010EN 12853:2001+A1:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope 1.1 This European Standard specifies the safety and hygiene requirements for the design and manufacture of hand-held blenders and whisks used in the commercial and institutiona

27、l catering, and in food shops. The term “hand-held blenders“ is used to refer to the equipment covered by this standard. The machines covered by this standard are hand-held appliances whose tool is intended to process a foodstuff in a container. Tools are designed to crush, mix, mash, emulsify, etc.

28、 foodstuffs such as vegetables into soups, mashes, purees, sauces, mayonnaise, cream, dairy products and more generally to process all solid, liquid, pasty or powdery foodstuffs to obtain a homogeneous fluid. These appliances are designed to process up to 100 l of food in one operation. This standar

29、d applies to the following machines, according to their weight and to the operating modes required by their intended use: manually operated machines, using one or both hands, actuated throughout the whole operation (see figure 1); machines operating resting on the bottom of the container (see figure

30、 2); machines fixed to or placed on a special support which can be fitted to the container (see figure 3). The support acts as a substitute for the operator for operations that take a long time or for food processing which may present risks of burns (steam or splashes). Figure 1 Manually operated ma

32、 European Standard specifies all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to hand-held blenders and whisks, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This European Standard deals with the ha

33、zards which can arise during commissioning, operation, cleaning, removal of food blockages, feeding, changing the tools, maintenance and decommissioning of the machine.“ 1.4 !Noise is not considered to be a significant hazard for hand-held blenders and whisks. This does not mean that the manufacture

34、r of these machines is absolved from reducing noise and making a noise declaration. Therefore, the information to be provided and a noise test code are given in this European Standard.“ 1.5 !This European Standard is not applicable to hand-held blenders and whisks which are manufactured before the d

The rotating tool is located at the end

44、of a shaft immersed in the processed food for progressively blending the food bulk 3.1.2 whisk machine for beating and emulsifying, equipped with tool composed of flexible and long wires gathered together around one or several rotating shaft(s). The tool operates with a large part of its length imme

45、rsed in the processed food 3.2 Description Depending on the type of processing, the usual length of the operation may vary from a few seconds to more than ten minutes. Operation is designed to be discontinuous. The rated power of hand-held blenders is usually less than 500 W. The weight of these app

46、liances is usually less than 10 kg. Hand-held blenders usually consist of (see figure 4): a) a body (1) which contains or supports: a motor and its transmission (2); one or several control devices, e.g.: on/off control, variable speed drive, selector (3); one or several handles (4); one or several f

47、ood processing tools/attachments which can be either fixed or removable (5). b) where applicable, a support which can be fitted to a range of containers (6).

49、hanical hazards The mechanical hazards of impact, cutting, trapping, crushing are due to contact of the hands with the rotating parts. They may arise from the following: unintended starting; ejection of parts due to bursting or breaking during operation, or disconnection of parts; falling of parts and ejection of tools; falling of the machine.
