25、fety requirements of the Machinery Directive and associated EFTA regulations. The Directive stipulates that where chain with welded links is used for lifting accessories it is to be of short link type and for the purposes of this standard this is chain having a ratio of nominal pitch to nominal size
26、 of 3:1. The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope. In addition, lifting equipment shall conform as appropriate to !EN ISO 12100“ for hazards which are not covered by this standard. !This standard is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100. When provisions of this type C
27、standard are different 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, for equipment that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.“ 1 Scope !This part of
28、EN 818 specifies the requirements related to safety for short link chains, grade 4, of medium tolerance for use in chain slings to EN 818-4:1996+A1 and for general lifting purposes.“ The standard is applicable to electrically welded round steel short link chains, conforming to !EN 818-1:1996+A1“, wh
29、ich are intended for lifting objects, materials or goods. The range of nominal sizes of chain covered by this Part of EN 818 is from 7 mm to 45 mm. The hazards covered by this Part of EN 818 are identified in clause 4. Annex A contains the bases for calculation of tabulated values for dimensions, wo
30、rking load limits and mechanical properties. Annex B gives information on the mass/metre of chain. Annex C gives an example of a designation system for chains of grade 4. Annex ZA gives the relationship with EU Directives. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undate
31、d 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 amendments to or revisions of, any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when in

37、indirectly the safety or health of those persons within the danger zone of lifting equipment. In order to provide the necessary strength and durability of lifting accessories this Part of EN 818 lays down requirements for the design, manufacture and testing to ensure that specified levels of perform
38、ance are met. Fatigue failure has not been identified as being a hazard when chain, having the specified levels of performance given in this Part of EN 818, is used in general lifting service. Since failure can be caused by the incorrect choice of grade and specification of lifting accessories this
39、Part of EN 818 also gives the requirements for marking and the manufacturers certificate. Those aspects of safe use associated with good practice are given in !EN 818-6:2000+A1“. Table 1 contains those hazards, which require action to reduce risk identified by risk assessment as being specific and s
