21、of their use. It applies to manual control actuators used in equipment for occupational and private use. It is particularly important to observe the recommendations in this European Standard where operating a control actuator may lead to injury or damage to health, either directly or as a result of
22、a human error. 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 amendment

31、1 Overall selection process for manual control actuators BS EN 894-3:2000+A1:2008EN 894-3:2000+A1:2008 (E) 7 4 Selection procedure Many types of manual control actuators are available from push-buttons to hand wheels. Each type is suited to particular task requirements and to certain operator capabi
32、lities. Environmental factors (e.g. illumination, vibration) and organisational factors (e.g. team work, workstation separation) also have to be considered. To ensure safe and efficient operation, correct selection of control actuators is important. The following describes a systematic procedure tha
33、t will enable designers and manufacturers to select manual control actuators meeting their specific requirements. The selection procedure involves three steps which are carried out in an iterative manner. These are: task evaluation and information collection; intermediate selection of control famili
34、es; identification of suitable control types. The main steps in the selection procedure are shown in figure 1. An example of a form for recording the results of the evaluation is shown in figure 2. Clause 5 describes the information that is required in order to select appropriate control actuators,
35、clauses 6 and 7 then describe how this information is used in order to make the selection. 5 Task evaluation and information collection 5.1 Requirements and characteristics The division of tasks between the operator and the equipment should have been determined early in the design process in accorda
36、nce with the recommendations in EN 614 -1 and EN 894 -1. There are general and specific requirements imposed by a task which normally cannot be changed. If it is not possible to find a suitable control actuator for a specified task then the allocation of this task or the task itself has to be recons
37、idered. The task requirements considered in this European Standard are ones that experience has shown to be most important in selecting manual control actuators, as follows: General task requirements a) Accuracy required in positioning the manual control actuator (accuracy); b) Speed of setting requ
38、ired (speed); c) Force/torque requirements (force). Specific task requirements d) Need for visual checking of manual control actuator setting (visual check); e) Need for tactile checking of setting (tactile check); f) Need to avoid inadvertent operation (inadvertent operate); g) Need to avoid hand s
39、lipping from manual control actuator (friction); BS EN 894-3:2000+A1:2008EN 894-3:2000+A1:2008 (E) 8 h) Need for operator to wear gloves (use with gloves); i) Need for easy cleaning (ease of cleaning). The general task requirements are used to identify classes of suitable control actuators. The spec
40、ific task requirements are used in selecting individual control actuators within these classes. In order to evaluate the task requirements the classification scheme illustrated in table 1 should be used. This differentiates between 5 different levels from 0 to 4. Table 1 Classification scheme for ev
41、aluating task requirements CODE SYMBOL Degree of requirements 0 Negligible 1 Low 2 Average 3 High 4 Very high The task requirements do not need to be evaluated precisely, therefore the detailed evaluation procedure given in 5.2 and 5.3, show classification systems that have been found to be sufficie
42、ntly accurate. The characteristics of the various types of control actuator need to be considered to determine the available selection options. This standard gives information on both movement characteristics and grip characteristics. In many cases some of the characteristics will have been predeter
43、mined by the task requirements. Movement characteristics: j) Type of movement; k) Axis of movement; l) Direction of movement; m) Continuity of movement; n) Angle of rotation for continuous rotary movements 180 0 Grip characteristics: o) Type of grip; p) Part of hand applying force; q) Method of appl
44、ying force. The above categories a - q are used throughout this standard. The shorter descriptions given in brackets after the full descriptions are used in table headings where space is limited.

The method for assigning each general task requirement to a class in table 1 is described. All acceptable requirements should
49、 be entered on the recording form (see figure 2). 5.2.1 Task requirement a:) Classification of accuracy (accuracy) The accuracy required shall be assigned to one of the classes shown in table 1. The accuracy required in the operation of a manual control actuator is determined by the task that has to be performed. Accuracy is influenced by a number of factors, the most important of which is continuity of movement required i.e. whether action of a manual control actuator takes place in discrete steps or continuously.
