| Resumen: | This document applies to rear loaded refuse collection vehicles (RCV), as defined in 3.2, regardless of the power drive. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the rear loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This document is applicable to the design and construction of the rear loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fit for its intended function and can be operated, cleaned (including unblocking), adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the rear loaded RCV. This document describes and defines the safety requirements of rear loaded RCVs excluding the interface tailgate/discharge door with the lifting device(s) and the lifting device(s) itself and excluding loader cranes, which could be mounted on the RCV. Lifting device(s) and the interface with the tailgate/discharge door are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. Loader cranes are covered in EN 12999:2020+A1:2025 and those installed on RCVs are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. This document also applies to compactors, operated on a truck for collecting purposes. This document is not applicable to: operation in severe conditions, e. g. extreme environmental conditions such as: below ?20 °C and above +40 °C temperatures; tropical environment; wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; contaminating environment; corrosive environment; operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e. g. hot refuses, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated refuse, especially fragile loads, explosives); operation on ships. The revision of EN 1501-1/-2-/3 and -5:2021 was necessary in particular due to the new Machinery Regulation 2023/1230, which contains new and revised essential health and safety requirements (EHSRs). This document (EN 1501-1:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 183 "Waste management", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). |
