3.Safety and Technical Data
3.1 General details on Safety
3.1.1 Engineering Criteria
When engineering the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY , the principles and concepts have been adopted, introduced by the pertinent
paragraphs of the harmonized norms indicated in Chart 1.
Chart 1 – Main harmonized norms used when engineering the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY .
NORM TITLE
UNI EN ISO 12100: 2010
Safety of the machinery - General engineering principles – Evaluation of the risk and
reduction of the risk
UNI EN ISO 13857: 2008
Safety of the machinery - Safety distances to prevent upper and lower limbs from accessing
dangerous areas
UNI EN 953: 2009
Safety of the machinery - General requirements for the engineering and construction of
guards (fixed, mobile)
UNI EN 378-1: 2011
Refrigeration systems and heat pumps – Safety and environmental requirements – Part 1:
basic requirements, definitions, classification, and selection criteria
UNI EN 378-2: 2009
Refrigeration systems and heat pumps – Safety and environmental requirements – Part 2:
engineering, construction, tests, marking, and documentation
The observance of the pertinent paragraphs of the aforementioned harmonized norms has allowed us to eliminate or reduce the risks
as best as possible, both during standard machine operation and during maintenance operations.
The components used have been accurately selected among those available on the market, and the materials that make up the PARTLY
COMPLETED MACHINERY
are void of risks to the health and safety of persons. All the parts supplied by third parties are marked CE (when
required) and are compliant with the relative directives of reference. All the details have been severely checked, in compliance with the
quality standards provisioned by the norms in force.
For the
PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY , moreover, the necessary cautionary and protective measures have been adopted against residual
risks (in this respect, see Paragraph 3.3 - Warnings concerning Residual Risks).
3.2 Devices and Solutions for Protection
The devices and constructional solutions described below have been adopted on the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY .
Fixed guards in steel sheet and protective grids near the mobile parts.
Safety signs near the fixed guards.
3.3 Warnings concerning Residual risks
In order to avoid any condition of danger to persons or of damages to the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY caused by residual risks, in
other words, those risks that persist in spite of all the measures adopted, or caused by potential risks that are not readily apparent, the
Manufacturer recommends to the maintenance workers and all the personnel appointed to the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY to
diligently follow the warnings indicated in the following pages.
ATTENTION: always follow the signals and the indications of the labels applied on the PARTLY COMPLETED
MACHINERY and exclusively operate based on the instructions provided herein (such as those
reported, for example, in Paragraph 3.6 - General Warnings and Behavioral Norms).
3.3.1 Lifting and Transport
3.3.1.1 Residual risks present during Lifting and Transport
There are risks during the lifting and transport phases tied to:
operations on the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY by unqualified, untrained, uninformed, or improperly equipped personnel.
incorrect choice or incorrect use of devices to transport and handle (e.g., hoist, lift) the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY ;
crushing of the operators appointed to maintenance;
loss of load stability during the operations being examined;
projection of mobile parts of the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY that cannot be appropriately removed or fastened;
collision of parts or components of the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY with persons or things due to unexpected displacements of
the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY itself or to improper behavior by personnel appointed to the operation;
collision or fall of component parts of the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY which damage the PARTLY COMPLETED MACHINERY and its
relative protections;
unhealthy positions or excessive strain for the operators appointed to transport and handle the components of the PARTLY
COMPLETED MACHINERY
.
