1.3 - Special warnings related to European Directives applica-
ble to the product
• “Construction Products” Directive:
Special warnings for this product in relation to the Construction Products
Regulation No. 305/2011:
- The full installation of this product, as described in this instruction manual
and for certain types of use (e.g. excluding use solely for vehicles), may cause
the product to fall within the scope of Regulation No. 305/2011 and its har-
monised standard EN 13241-1.
- In paragraph 1.3.1 “Installation criteria and special warnings in relation to
essential requirements”, all necessary installation criteria are given to en-
sure that the product meets the essential requirements of Regulation No.
305/2011; the installer must verify and ensure that all these criteria have been
scrupulously complied with.
- The essential requirements might not be guaranteed if the road barrier
mechanism is installed and used without compliance with one or more of
these criteria. It is forbidden to use the product in these situations un-
til the installer has verified the compliance with the Directive require-
ments; in this case the label attached to the product must be removed im-
mediately and the “EC Declaration of Conformity” (Annex I to this manual)
cannot be used. As a result, the installer in turn becomes the manufacturer
of the “automatic barrier” product and must comply with the provisions of
Regulation No. 305/2011 and its harmonised standard EN 13241-1. In this
case the road barrier mechanism must be considered as “partly-completed
machinery” and the “Declaration of Conformity” of Annex II can be used (for
inclusion in the technical documentation).
• “Machinery” Directive:
- In paragraph 1.3.1 “Installation criteria and special warnings in relation to
essential requirements”, all necessary installation criteria are given to ensure
that the product meets the essential requirements of the Machinery Directive.
The installer must verify and ensure that all these criteria have been scrupu-
lously complied with.
- The essential requirements might not be guaranteed if the road barrier
mechanism is installed and used without compliance with one or more of
these criteria. It is forbidden to use the product in these situations un-
til the installer has verified the compliance with the Directive require-
ments; in this case the “EC Declaration of Conformity: Annex I” cannot be
used. As a result, the installer in turn becomes the manufacturer of the “au-
tomatic barrier” product and must comply with the provisions of the Machin-
ery Directive. The manufacturer must make an assessment of the associated
risks, including a list of the essential safety requirements as envisaged in “Ap-
pendix I of the Machinery Directive”, specifying the related adopted solutions.
Note that the risk assessment is one of the documents included in the auto-
mation Technical documentation. This must be completed by a profession-
al installer, and the “Declaration of conformity” of Annex II can be used and
must be filled in by the installer of the road barrier mechanism.
Special warnings regarding the use of this product in relation to the
“Machinery” Directive; these are to be taken into consideration if the
installer becomes the manufacturer of the product.
• The road barrier mechanism comes onto the market as “partly-completed
machinery” and is therefore manufactured to be integrated into a machine or
assembled with other machines in order to create “a machine” pursuant to Ma-
chinery Directive, only in combination with other components and in the man-
ner described in this instruction manual. As specified in the Machinery Direc-
tive, the use of this product is not admitted until the manufacturer of the ma-
chine on which this product is mounted has identified and declared it as con-
forming to the Machinery Directive.
• “Low Voltage” Directive:
Special warnings regarding the fitness of use of this product in relation to the
“Low Voltage” Directive.
This product meets the provisions in the “Low Voltage” Directive if used for
the use and in the configurations specified in this instruction manual and in
combination with the items in the Nice S.p.A. product catalogue.
If the product is used in unspecified configurations or with other unspecified
products, the requirements may not be guaranteed; the use of the product
in these situations is prohibited until the installer has verified compliance with
the specified requirements of the directive.
• “Electromagnetic compatibility” Directive:
Special warnings regarding the fitness of use of this product in relation to the
“Electromagnetic compatibility” Directive.
This product has been subjected to electromagnetic compatibility tests in the
most critical situations of use and in the configurations specified in this in-
struction manual and in combination with the items in the Nice S.p.A. prod-
uct catalogue.
If the product is used in unspecified configurations or with other unspecified
products, the electromagnetic compatibility may not be guaranteed; the use
of the product is prohibited in these situations until the installer has verified
compliance with the specified requirements of the directive.
1.3.1 - Installation criteria and special warnings in connection with es-
sential requirements
When installed correctly, this product meets the essential requirements laid
down in Regulation No. 305-2011 according to the requirements in harmo-
nised standard EN 13241-1, as indicated in Table 1 and in the European direc-
tive on “Machinery”.
Caution! – If the road barrier mechanism were intended solely for the transit
of vehicles, it would be excluded from the scope of EN 13241-1; in this case,
compliance with some of the requirements in Table A may not be required.
Transit may be considered “solely for vehicles” when other types of transit (e.g.
for pedestrians) are expressly prohibited – for example with appropriate signs
– and when adequate space is provided in the immediate vicinity if other types
of transit are required.
• Releasing of hazardous substances:
The product does not contain and/or release hazardous substances in accord-
ance with the requirements of EN 13241-1 and according to the list of sub-
stances on the website of the European Community
Special warning to ensure the continued compliance with the require-
ment – It is essential that the other materials used in the installation, such as
electrical cables, comply with this requirement
• Resistance to wind load
Table 1a shows the resistance of the boom to the differential pressure of the
wind. The tests were performed on the barrier equipped with an impact pro-
tection profile; other accessories could increase its exposed surface area and
thereby reduce its resistance to wind loads.
• Safe opening for vertically moving doors
The product does not cause uncontrolled movements or allow the boom to
drop in the event of failure of a single component of the suspension or balanc-
ing (springs) system.
Special warnings to ensure continued compliance of the requirements:
- Install the product carefully following all the instructions described in Section
3 - Installation and Section 5 - Testing and commissioning.
- Make sure there is an organised maintenance schedule that follows scrupu-
