In the past, the co
22、ncepts of “operating machine“ and “stopped machine“ were generally unambiguous; a machine was: Operating when its movable elements, or some of them, were moving; Stopped when its movable elements were at rest. Machine automation has made the relationship between “operating“ and “moving“ on the one h
23、and, “stopped“ and “at rest“ on the other hand, more difficult to define. Automation has also increased the potential for unexpected start-up, and there are a significant number of accidents where machines, stopped for diagnostic work or corrective actions, started up unexpectedly. Hazards other tha
24、n mechanical hazards generated by movable elements (e.g. from a laser beam) also need to be taken into account. The risk assessment relating to the presence of persons in a danger zone of a stopped machine needs to take into account the probability of an unexpected start-up of the hazard-generating
25、machine elements. This standard provides machine designers and technical committees in charge of preparing machinery safety standards with a survey of built-in measures intended to prevent unexpected start-up. 1 Scope This standard specifies built-in safety measures aimed at preventing unexpected ma
26、chine start-up (see 3.2) to allow safe human interventions in danger zones (see Annex A). This standard applies to unexpected start-up from all types of energy source, i.e.: Power supply, e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic; Stored energy due to, e.g., gravity, compressed springs; External influen
27、ces, e.g. from wind; 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent a
28、mendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

EN 60204-1:1992, Safety of machinery Electrical equipment of machines Part 1: General requirements. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this standard, the definitions given in ENV 1070 “Safety of machinery Terminology“ apply, together with the following: 3.1 start-up (
31、machine start-up) change from rest to motion of a machine or of one of its parts NOTE The definition includes functions other than motion, e.g. switch-on of a laser beam 3.2 unexpected unintended start-up any start-up caused by: a start command which is the result of a failure in, or an external inf
32、luence on, the control system; a start command generated by inopportune action on a start control or other parts of the machine, as e.g. a sensor or a power control element; restoration of the power supply after an interruption; external/internal influences (gravity, wind, self-ignition in internal
33、combustion engines) on parts of the machine; NOTE Automatic machine start-up during normal operation is not unintended, but can be considered to be unexpected from the point of view of the operator. Prevention of accidents in this case involves the use of safeguarding measures (see clause 4 of EN 29
34、2-2:1991) 3.3 isolation and energy dissipation a procedure which consists of all the four following actions: a) isolating disconnecting, separating the machine (or defined parts of the machine) from all power supplies; b) if necessary (for instance in large machines or in installations), locking (or
35、 otherwise securing) all the isolating units in the isolating position; c) dissipating or restraining containing any stored energy which may give rise to a hazard. NOTE Energy may be stored in e.g.: Mechanical parts continuing to move through inertia; 1) Draft standard prepared by CEN/TC 114/WG 14 B

37、4.1 Isolation and energy dissipation Machines shall be provided with devices intended for isolation and energy dissipation (see clause 5), especially with a view to major maintenance, work on power circuits and decommissioning (see the essential safety requirement expressed in 1.6.3 of annex A of EN
38、 292-2:1991). 4.2 Other means to prevent unexpected unintended start-up If the use of isolation and energy dissipation is not appropriate (e.g. for frequent short interventions in danger zones), the designer shall provide, according to the risk assessment (see prEN 1050), other measures (see clause
39、6) to prevent unexpected start-up. Additional means such as signalling and/or warning may be appropriate (see annex B). NOTE 1 Examples of tasks which can require the presence of persons in danger zones are given in annex A NOTE 2 According to 5.7.1 of EN 292-1:1991, the designer should as completel
40、y as possible determine the different machine operating modes and the need for the presence of persons in danger zones. Appropriate built-in safety measures can then be provided to prevent operators from being induced to use hazardous operating modes and hazardous intervention techniques caused by t
41、echnical difficulties in the use of the machine (see also 3.12 “Intended use of a machine“ of EN 292-1:1991). 5 Devices for isolation and energy dissipation 5.1 Devices for isolation from power supplies 5.1.1 Isolation devices shall: Ensure a reliable isolation (disconnection, separation); Have a re
42、liable mechanical link between the manual control and the isolating element(s); Be equipped with clear and unambiguous identification of the state of the isolation device which corresponds to each position of its manual control (actuator). NOTE 1 For electrical equipment, a supply disconnecting devi
43、ce complying with 5.3 “Supply disconnecting (isolating) device“ of EN 60204-1:1992 meets this requirement. NOTE 2 Plug and socket systems (for electrical supplies), or their pneumatic, hydraulic or mechanical equivalents, are examples of isolating devices with which it is possible to achieve a visib
44、le and reliable discontinuity in the power supply circuits. For electrical plug/socket combinations, see 5.3.2 d) of EN 60204-1:1992. NOTE 3 For hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, see also 5.1.6 of prEN 982 and 5.1.6 of prEN 983. BS EN 1037:1995+A1:2008EN 1037:1995+A1:2008 (E) 7 5.1.2 The location a
45、nd number of isolation devices are determined by the configuration of the machine, the need for the presence of persons in danger zones and the risk assessment. Each isolation device shall make it possible (e.g. by durable marking where necessary) to readily identify which machine or machine part it
46、 isolates. NOTE For electrical equipment of machinery, see also 5.4 “Devices for switching off for prevention of unexpected start-up“ of EN 60204-1:1992. 5.1.3 When, during isolation of the machine, certain circuits have to remain connected to their power supply in order, e.g. to hold parts, save in
47、formation or provide local lighting, special means shall be provided to ensure operator safety. NOTE Such means include enclosures which can be opened only with a key or a special tool, warning labels and/or warning lights 5.2 Locking securing devices The isolating devices shall be capable of being
48、locked or otherwise secured in the isolating position. NOTE 1 Locking devices may not be necessary when a plug/socket combination is used and the plug can be kept under immediate supervision of the person present in the danger zone NOTE 2 Locking devices include: Facilities to apply one or more padl
49、ocks; Trapped-key interlocking devices (see annex E of prEN 1088), one of the locks of which is used to lock secure the isolating device; Lockable covers or enclosures. Locking devices are not required when reconnection cannot endanger persons. 5.3 Devices for stored energy dissipation or restraint containment 5.3.1 General 5.3.1.1 Devices for stored energy dissipation or restraint containment shall be incorporated into the machine where stored energy can give rise to a hazard. NOTE Such devices
