22、180:2014 (E) 5 Introduction Food depositors are used extensively in Europe, in commercial and industrial food preparation applications. They present some health and safety hazards that have the potential to cause serious injury. This document is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100. The machi
23、nery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events 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 preceden
24、ce over the provisions of the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this Type C-standard. BS EN 15180:2014EN 15180:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope 1.1 General This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevan
25、t to food depositors as defined in 1.2.2 to 1.2.6 and the equipment typically integrated into them, i.e. product pumps, product elevators, conveyors and indexing mechanisms, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause
26、 4). This European Standard deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events during transport, assembly and installation, commissioning, use and decommissioning as defined in EN ISO 12100. NOTE 1 According to the clause which is referred to, “use” includes “setting, teaching/progr
27、amming or process changeover, operation, cleaning, fault finding and maintenance”. NOTE 2 Although this standard is intended to apply to depositors used in the food industry, many of its requirements can also be used for similar machines used in other industries. This European Standard is not applic
28、able to the following machines: auger depositors or auger fillers and gravimetric filling machines, safety requirements for these machines are contained in EN 415-3; automatic dough dividers, safety requirements for these machines are contained in EN 12042; filling machines for sausages, safety requ
29、irements for these machines are contained in EN 12463; mincing machines, safety requirements for these machines are contained in EN 12331; food depositors that are powered exclusively by manual effort. This document does not deal with the hazards related to the use of food depositors in a potentiall
30、y explosive atmosphere. This European Standard is not applicable to food depositors that were manufactured before the date of its publication as a European Standard. 1.2 Types of food depositors 1.2.1 General This European Standard deals with five different types of food depositors. These machines c
31、an be free standing machines or be assemblies incorporated into other machines e.g. pie and tart machines. Food depositors may work fully automatically integrated with a product conveyor or product indexing mechanism or semi-automatically discharging a deposit when required by an operator. 1.2.2 Pis
32、ton depositor A piston depositor typically comprises a hopper, a rotary valve, a product measuring chamber in the form of a piston and a product dispensing valve. Some piston depositors incorporate several product measuring chambers and dispensing valves. Some designs dispense the product directly f
33、rom the rotary valve without the use of a separate product dispensing valve. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the stroke of the product measuring chamber piston. Piston depositors are used to fill liquids, liquids containing solids in suspension and pastes. The product dispensin
34、g valve may be attached rigidly to the depositor or BS EN 15180:2014EN 15180:2014 (E) 7 using a flexible pipe and in some cases is held by the operator. Figure 1 shows the typical cross section of a piston depositor. Figure 1 Piston depositor 1.2.3 Chamber depositor A chamber depositor comprises a h
35、opper feeding one or more product measuring chambers that are filled under gravity from the top. When the chamber has been filled with product the flow of product is stopped either by moving the chamber or using a product cutting device. The chamber is then discharged through the bottom of the chamb
36、er either by moving the chamber or by moving a plate in the base of the chamber. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the volume of the chamber. Chamber depositors are typically used to deposit free-flowing products like cooked rice or pasta. Figure 2 shows the typical cross section
37、 of a chamber depositor. Figure 2 Chamber depositor BS EN 15180:2014EN 15180:2014 (E) 8 1.2.4 Roller depositor A roller depositor typically comprises a hopper that feeds product to two or more fluted contra-rotating rollers. These rollers force the product through one or more dies that shape the pro
38、duct. The product is then separated using a product cutting device like a wire cut mechanism. On some designs of the machine the dies are moved while the product is dispensed to produce a shaped product. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the timing of the product cut-off device.
39、Roller depositors are typically used to deposit dough or confectionery products. Figure 3 shows the typical cross section of a roller depositor. Figure 3 Roller depositor 1.2.5 Pump depositor A pump depositor comprises a hopper that feeds a pump which in turn feeds pipe-work on which are mounted one
40、 or more product dispensing valves. The dispensing valves may remain fixed, move up and down or from side to side in synchronization with a product conveyor. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the length of time that the dispensing valves are open. Pump depositors are typically us
41、ed to deposit liquids or liquids containing finely divided solids Figure 4 shows the typical cross section of a pump depositor. Figure 4 Pump depositor BS EN 15180:2014EN 15180:2014 (E) 9 1.2.6 Screw depositor A screw depositor comprises a hopper in which a screw is mounted. When the screw rotates i
42、t draws product from the hopper into a pipe. The hopper may be equipped with stirrers to move the product towards the screw and a product measuring chamber or product dispensing valve may be fitted to the discharge of the screw. The volume of product can be varied by increasing or decreasing the spe
43、ed of the screw, by varying the volume of the measuring chamber or by controlling the actuation of the product dispensing valve. Screw depositors are typically used to deposit dough, pastes or creams. Figure 5 shows the typical cross section of a screw depositor. Figure 5 Screw depositor 2 Normative
