This European Standard is concerned with types of machinery referred to as “smokehouses”. The extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered is indicated in the sco
25、pe of this document. When provisions of this type C standard differ 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. BS EN 15861:2012EN 15861:2012 (E) 6 1 Scope 1.1 Requirements This European Stan
26、dard specifies safety and hygiene requirements for the design and manufacture of smokehouses for commercial use. The machines covered by this standard are used for the smoking of foodstuffs, especially meat, fish or similar products, as well as the connected heating and cooling processes. Smokehouse
27、s consist of the following elements: Smoke chamber with equipment; Air handling system; Smoke generator; Pipes and ducts; Cleaning systems. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events and hygiene requirements relevant to smokehouses when they are used a
28、s intended and under reasonably foreseeable conditions of misuse. This European Standard deals with the hazards which can arise during the whole life of smokehouses. This document is not applicable to smokehouses which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN. 1.2 Type
29、s This European Standard covers the following types of smokehouses and installations: Smokehouses with friction smoke generator; Smokehouses with steam smoke generator; Smokehouses with liquid smoke generator; Smokehouses with saw dust and wood chip smoke generators; Smokehouses with one or several
30、smoke chambers for batch production; Smokehouses for continous production. This European Standard does not cover automatic production.
