1、 ANSI/ASABE AD4254-6:2009 AUG2013 Agricultural machinery Safety Part 6: Sprayers and liquid fertilizer distributors American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers ASABE is a professional and technical organization, of members worldwide, who are dedicated to advancement of engineering appl
2、icable to agricultural, food, and biological systems. ASABE Standards are consensus documents developed and adopted by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers to meet standardization needs within the scope of the Society; principally agricultural field equipment, farmstead equi
3、pment, structures, soil and water resource management, turf and landscape equipment, forest engineering, food and process engineering, electric power applications, plant and animal environment, and waste management. NOTE: ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data are informational and advisor
4、y only. Their use by anyone engaged in industry or trade is entirely voluntary. The ASABE assumes no responsibility for results attributable to the application of ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data. Conformity does not ensure compliance with applicable ordinances, laws and regulations.
5、 Prospective users are responsible for protecting themselves against liability for infringement of patents. ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data initially approved prior to the society name change in July of 2005 are designated as “ASAE“, regardless of the revision approval date. Newly d
6、eveloped Standards, Engineering Practices and Data approved after July of 2005 are designated as “ASABE“. Standards designated as “ANSI“ are American National Standards as are all ISO adoptions published by ASABE. Adoption as an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the requi
7、rements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by ASABE. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much mor
8、e than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. CAUTION NOTICE: ASABE and ANSI standards may be revised or withdrawn at any time. Additionally, procedures of ASABE re
9、quire that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw each standard. Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers. All rights reserved.

14、d liquid fertilizer distributors. Deviations noted in the following Foreword sections pertain to those provisions where harmonization could not be achieved between ASABE and the International Standard. 0.2 ANSI/ASABE AD4254-6:2009 is to be used together with ISO 4254-1, specifies the safety requirem
15、ents and their verification for the design and construction of mounted, semi-mounted, trailed and self-propelled agricultural sprayers for use with pesticide products and liquid fertilizer application, designed for use by one operator only. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe w
16、orking practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer. This part of ISO 4254 is not applicable to: pedestrian-controlled sprayers; knapsack sprayers; aerial sprayers; handheld spraying devices (e.g. spray guns). When requirements of this part of ISO 4254 are different from t
17、hose which are stated in ISO 4254-1, the requirements of this part of ISO 4254 take precedence over the requirements of ISO 4254-1 for machines that have been designed and built according the provisions of this part of ISO 4254. This part of ISO 4254, taken together with ISO 4254-1, deals with all t

These references have been reviewed and accepted as part of the adoption with deviations of the ISO document in ANSI/ASABE AD4254-6:2009. 0.4 This standard has been approved as an Ameri
23、can National standard by ANSI (American National Standards Institute). 0.5 This standard deviates from ISO 4254-6:2009 as follows: 0.5.1 Replace section 5.3.2.1 with “A safety sign(s) shall be provided to inform of possible overhead power line contact on agricultural equipment that exceeds 4.3 m (14
24、 ft) in height during any mode of operation, transport, or preparation for transport.” 0.5.2 In Table 2, Additional means of verification of safety requirements and/or protective measures given in this part of ISO 4254, for section 5.3.2.1 change “height of 4 m.” to “height of 4.3 m” Add: Safety sig
25、n to provide warning of overhead power lines for equipment 4.3 m. 0.5.3 In section 5.9 remove “manual” from the header and paragraph. Revised wording: “Each machine shall be equipped at the drivers position with a spraying stop control device to safely stop the flow (e.g. by means of two valves plac
26、ed in series). When the spraying stop control has been actuated, the volume dripping from each nozzle shall be minimized.” 0.5.4 In section 7.2.3 remove “maximum pump pressure” and “nominal frequency of rotation”. 0.5.5 In section 7.2.3 add “model number”.
