1 Introduction on -Mark Directive 94/9/EC and standards Dr. Frank Hauert 4 goals of the EU 1. Free movement of people 2. Free movement of capital 3. Free movement of service 4. Free movement of goods 1

2 CHINA Instruments of the legislation Directives: are addressed at the member states -> transposing in national law required e.g. 94/9/EC Regulations: for special target groups are obligatory in every member state (-> no national transpose) Standards: are addressed directly to the manufacturer Compliance of standards is voluntary At disregard the manufacturer has to proof that all requirements are met 2

3 History of the European Union EGKS EWG EUROATOM /2002 Treaty of Rome 1957 Single European Act Majority qualified - Art 100a/118a - Parliament stabilization Treaty of Maastrich 1992 Start of single market 1993 EGKS EG EUROATOM + Foreign /domestic-/justice-/defence (security) politics European Union (EU) Treaty of Amsterdam 1999 Treaty of Nice 2002 Enlargement to east Revision of treaty of Maastricht - renumbering - Development of foreign and security politics - Negotiations of accession for new Member States - New allocation of seats in the parliament, new commission distribution - Security- and defence politics, coordination of the economic policy - Environmental protection, European Social Agenda 10 countries will become new members of EU Why 94/9/EC? Why ATEX 100a? ATEX = Atmosphère explosible Same! Why ATEX 95? Article 95 (100a) Requirements for products with Conformity assessment procedure machinery directive 98/37/EC 2006/42/EC use of equipment 94/9/EC (ATEX100a) It is not allowed to add national requirements! 3

4 Relevant Articles of the EU-Treaty Article 95 (100a) Requirements for products with Conformity assessment procedure machinery directive 98/37/EC use of equipment 94/9/EC (ATEX100a) Article 175 (130s) Environmental protection Seveso II- directive Article 137 (118a) Protect health and safety of workers framework directive health and safety requirements für work 89/391/EWG Directive on use of work equipment 89/655/EWG 1999/92/EC Requirements for improving the safety and health protection of workers potentially at risk from explosive atmospheres Directives according Article 95 and 137 4

5 New European Approach in explosions protection Requirements for manufacturer 94/9/EC must fulfill Requirements for user 1999/92/EC ATEX 100a (95) National law transposed nationally ATEX 137 National law user Flow Chart Is looking for manufacturer depending on category for fork lift offers and considers makes zoning considers Conformity assessment procedure Intended Use Instructions The requirements acc. Annex 2 take into account -marking... National Law z.b. Instruction delivers 5

6 Consequences for the manufacturer 1. The directive covers equipment and protective systems 2. The manufacturer is responsible for the warranty of fitness of his equipment or protective system for the use in explosive atmosphere ( Intended use ) 3. They are suitable if they comply the essential health and safety requirements of the directive 94/9/EG (Annex II) He will mark the product with + 94/9/EC Annnex II Essential health and safety requirements of the directive 94/9/EC (Summary) - Principles of integrated explosion safety -Marking - Instructions - Selection of materials - Design and construction - Potential ignition sources - Requirements in respect of safety-related devices 6

7 Meaning of CE - Mark is not a safety sign (because normally the safety is not tested or verified) is a kind of European passport Marked equipment = conformity with all relevant directives e.g. ATEX 95 + Machinery Directive Intended use Intended use: Dryer for Grain (ZT>300 C) Dryer temp.: T max = 120 C no additional measures to limit the temperature But: Measures to limit the temperature for drying of chemicals with < 80 C are necessary 7

8 Instructions 94/9/EG Anh. II guide 1.06 Intended Use Sensible way foreseeable misuse (Particulars of possible misuse which experience has shown might occur) same instructions as in the case of the marking (except serial number) Instructions for safe putting into service, use, assembling and dismantling, maintenance, installation, adjustment where necessary, training instructions; electrical and pressure parameters, maximum surface temperatures and other limit values; 94/9/EG Art. 1 Is the equipment covered by ATEX? intended use in potentially explosive atmosphere under atmospheric conditions or equipment is connected to the explosive atmosphere 8

In these cases there are also no EC type examination etc. 10

No Internal control of production and EC type examination Internal control of production Production QA or Product Verification Conformity to type and or Product QA and Communicate a documentation to a Notified Body Or EC-unit verification Combination with the Machinery-Directive Machinery-Directive 98/37/EC Annex Explosion Machinery must be designed and constructed to avoid any risk of explosion posed by the machinery itself or by gases, liquids, dust, vapours or other substances produced or used by the machinery. To that end the manufacturer must take steps to avoid a dangerous concentration of products, prevent combustion of the potentially explosive atmosphere, minimise any explosion which may occur so that it does not endanger the surroundings. The same precautions must be taken if the manufacturer foresees the use of the machinery in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Electrical equipment forming part of the machinery must conform, as far as the risk from explosion is concerned, to the provision of the specific Directives in force. 22

23 Combination with the Machinery-Directive Machinery-Directive 2006/42/EC Annex Explosion Machinery must be designed and constructed in such a way as to avoid any risk of explosion posed by the machinery itself or by gases, liquids, dust, vapours or other substances produced or used by the machinery. Machinery must comply, as far as the risk of explosion due to its use in a potentially explosive atmosphere is concerned, with the provisions of the specific Community Directives. Conformity with all directives Marking Example 0558 manufacturer, address designation of type/serial number year of construction Information to the safe use Marking of explosion protection II 2 G Identification number of the not.

25 Harmonised Standards 1. The application of a harmonised standard causes the assumption that the Essential Health- and Safety Requirements (so far applicable) are fulfilled. => Standard series with CEN and CENELEC. ( 2. No harmonised standards available. => suitable national standards, technical specifications etc. can be used. Harmonised Standards 1.

26 Harmonised Standards => Standard series with CEN and CENELEC. ( 2. No harmonised standards available. => suitable national standards, technical specifications etc. can be used. CEN - Classification A-type standards These deal with the basic methodology and philosophy needed to undertake the mandatory risk based approach. EN Basic concepts and methodology EN Parts 1 and 2 Safety of Machinery B-type standards These deal with a variety of topics that are common to the design of most machines. These enable a designer to obtain information about a wide range of risks of hazards and the means to deal with the risk reduction process.

32 Constructional Safety EN Basic: Many years of experience and knowledge of manufacturers and users Possibility for malfunctions by good, proven construction keeps sufficiently small (see increased safety with electrical equipment) avoids by constructional measures at moved parts hot surfaces, sparks and adiabatic compressions, this one can become an ignition source covers categories 1 and 2 G/D (also without additional ignition enclosures) in addition, can be combined Constructional Safety EN Special attention of the moved parts Requirements to bearing Requirements to power transmission systems (Gear-)drives (=> liquid immersion) Belt drives Chain drives Hydrostatic/pneumatic systems couplings Brakes Service brakes Emergency brakes Parking brakes Springs Conveyor belts 32

33 Monitoring of ignition sources EN Detector Basic idea: ignition sources are switched off by measuring- and controlling means/ monitor facility, before they can get active (temperature-, level-, rotational speed-, oscillation guardian...) Reliability level of the attachment depends on probability of the supervised ignition source and the desired category Protective measure: Separate Ex-atmosphere from ignition source + to cool/lubricate liquid immersion EN Support at EN , extended for mechanical equipment, also conductive liquids not only submersing, but also coating Example submersible pumps Liquid hydraulic pumps and motors, fluid couplings Oil-filled gear boxes (also without complete filling) 33
