Examples of regularly used EN/ISO standardsEN ISO 12100(replaces EN ISO 12100-1/-2and EN ISO 14121-1)Safety of machinery - General principlesfor design - Risk assessment and riskreductionPart 1: This standard defines basic terminology and methodology used inachieving safety of machinery. The provisions stated in this standard areintended for the designer.Part 2: This standard defines technical principles to help designers inachieving safety in the design of machinery.EN ISO 13857EN 349(ISO 13854)EN ISO 13850EN 574EN 953EN ISO 13849-1(replaces EN 954-1)EN ISO 13849-2Safety of machinery - Safety distances toprevent hazard zones being reached byupper and lower limbsSafety of machinery – Minimum gapsto avoid crushing of parts of the humanbodySafety of machinery – Emergency stop– Principles for designSafety of machinery – Two-hand controldevices – Functional aspects – Principlesfor designSafety of machinery – Guards – Generalrequirements for the design and constructionof fixed and movable guardsSafety of machinery – Safety relatedparts of control systems –Part 1: General principles for designSafety of machinery. Safety-related partsof control systems. ValidationThis standard establishes values for safety distances to prevent danger zonesbeing reached by the upper limbs. The distances apply when adequate safetycan be achieved by distances alone.The object of this standard is to enable the user (e.g. standard makers, designersof machinery) to avoid hazards from crushing zones. It specifies minimumgaps relative to parts of the human body and is applicable when adequatesafety can be achieved by this method.This standard specifies design principles for emergency stop equipment formachinery. No account is taken of the nature of the energy source.This standard specifies the safety requirements of a two-hand control deviceand its logic unit. The standard describes the main characteristics of two-handcontrol devices for the achievement of safety and sets out combinations offunctional characteristics for three types.This standard specifies general requirements for the design and constructionof guards provided primarily to protect persons from mechanical hazards.This standard provides safety requirements and guidance on the principlesfor the design (see 3.11 of EN 292-1:1991) of safety-related parts of controlsystems. For these parts it specifies categories and describes the characteristicsof their safety functions. This includes programmable systems for allmachinery and for related protective devices. It applies to all safety-relatedparts of control systems, regardless of the type of energy used, e.g. electrical,hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical. It does not specify which safety functionsand which categories shall be used in a particular case.This standard specifies the procedures and conditions to be followed for thevalidation by analysis and testing of:• the safety functions provided, and• the category achieved of the safety-related parts of the control system incompliance with EN 954-1 (ISO 13849-1), using the design rationale providedby the designer.EN 62061Safety of machinery. Functional safety ofsafety-related electrical, electronic andprogrammable electronic control systemsThe standard defines the safety requirements and guiding principles for thedesign of safety-related electrical/electronic/programmable parts of a controlsystem.EN ISO 13855(replaces EN 999)Safety of machinery - Positioning ofsafeguards with respect to the approachspeeds of parts of the human bodyThis standard provides parameters based on values for hand/arm and approachspeeds and the methodology to determine the minimum distances from specificsensing or actuating devices of protective equipment to a danger zone.EN 1088and EN 1088/A1EN 60204-1Safety of machinery. Interlocking devicesassociated with guards. Principles fordesign and selectionSafety of machinery. Electrical equipmentof machines. General requirementsThis standard specifies principles for the design and selection - independentof the nature of the energy source - of interlocking devices associatedwith guards. It also provides requirements specifically intended for electricalinterlocking devices. The standard covers the parts of guards which actuateinterlocking devices.This part of IEC 60204 applies to the application of electrical and electronicequipment and systems to machines not portable by hand while working,including a group of machines working together in a co-ordinated mannerbut excluding higher level systems aspects (i.e. communications betweensystems).1:10ABB
