19、ent (EN 1909:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 242 “Safety requirements for cableway installations designed to carry persons”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
20、 text or by endorsement, by July 2017 at the latest, and all conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn no later than July 2017. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights or similar rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not
21、 be held responsible for identifying all or some of these patent rights. This document supersedes EN 1909:2004. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2000/9/
22、EC. For the relationship with EU Directive 2000/9/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. The most significant changes compared to the previous edition of EN 1909 are as follows: For Subclause 5.2.2 Danger factors: the factor “incompetence, unfitness, inattention or
23、 failure of those involved in evacuation operations” has been replaced by “human failure”. For Subclause 7.2 Transmission of information: addition of a requirement in the event that landline telephones are used in tunnels. For numbered entry 9.1.6: addition of a recommendation concerning the managem
24、ent of lighting and the precautions to be taken against fire. For Subclause 9.6.3: Use of helicopters: change of approach. The previous version of the standard defined precisely the methods and resources to be implemented (which did not always correspond to field practices). The new version of the s
25、tandard only indicates the need for prior consultation between the cableway operator and the organisation responsible for the helicopter. For Annex ZA (informative), Relationship between this European Standard and the Essential Requirements of EU Directive 2000/9/EC relating to cableway installation
26、s designed to carry persons: addition of two essential requirements of the Directive (4.4 and 7.3.2) in view of Clause 9. This document forms part of the standards programme approved by the CEN Technical Board on safety requirements for cableway installations designed to carry persons. This programm

DIN EN 1909:2017-05 EN 1909:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the safety requirements applicable to the recovery of carriers and the evacuation of
35、 passengers from cableway installations designed to carry persons, with the exception of ski-tows. This standard is applicable to various types of installations and takes into account their environment. It establishes the requirements relating to the methods and equipment to be used to ensure the sa
36、fety of passengers on cableways in the event of extended stoppage of the installation. It covers only the situation resulting from immobilization of the carriers, even if the passengers are not in immediate danger. It does not cover specific operations resulting from an accident. It includes require
37、ments relating to the prevention of accidents and to worker protection, without affecting the application of national requirements relating to construction law or statutory law, or to the protection of specific groups of people. It does not apply to installations for the transportation of goods by r
38、ope or to lifts. It does not deal with design requirements for carriers. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
