19、nd protection”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2008.
20、This document will supersede EN 1127-1:1997. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directives. For relationship with EU Directives, see informative Annex ZA, ZB and ZC
21、, which are an integral part of this document. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are technical changes in the definitions (see Clause 3). Furthermore the document has been editorially revised, references have been updated and a bibliography has been added. This standard is a gene
22、ral guideline for explosion prevention and protection by design and construction of equipment, protective systems and components. Detailed information on specific equipment, protective systems and components is comprised in appropriate individual standards. The design and construction of explosion p
23、revention and protection measures need safety relevant data of flammable substances and explosive atmospheres. Detailed information is available from appropriate standards. EN 1127-1 Explosive atmospheres Explosion prevention and protection consists of the following parts: Part 1: Basic concepts and
24、 methodology; Part 2: Basic concepts and methodology for mining. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Fin
25、land, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 1127-1:2007 (E) 5 Introduction CEN and CENELEC are producing a set of standards
26、 to assist designers, manufacturers and other interested bodies to interpret the essential safety requirements in order to achieve conformity with European Legislation. Within this series of standards CEN has undertaken to draw up a standard to give guidance in the field of explosion prevention and
27、protection, as hazards from explosions are to be considered in accordance with EN ISO 12100-1:2003, 4.8. The present standard was drawn up on request and by mandate of CEC and EFTA to fulfil Directive 2006/42/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of May 17, 2006 on machinery which demands in
28、 its Annex I, Clause 1.5.7 that machinery must be designed and constructed in such a way as to avoid any risk of explosion as well as Directive 94/9/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of March 23, 1994 on the approximation of the laws of the member states concerning equipment and protecti
29、ve systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. In accordance with EN ISO 12100-1 it is a type A standard. This standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard in the sense of the appropriate Directives of the EU and associated EFTA regulations. This standard describes the b
30、asic concepts and methodology of explosion prevention and protection. CEN/TC 305 has a mandate in this area to produce B-type, and C-type standards, which will allow verification of conformity with the essential safety requirements. Explosions can occur from a) materials processed or used by the equ
31、ipment, protective systems and components; b) materials released by the equipment, protective systems and components; c) materials in the vicinity of the equipment, protective systems and components; d) materials of construction of the equipment, protective systems and components. Since safety depen
32、ds not only on equipment, protective systems and components but also on the material being handled and its use, this standard includes aspects related to the intended use, i.e. the manufacturer should consider how and for what the equipment, protective systems and components will be used and take th
33、is into account during its design and construction. Only in this way can hazards inherent in equipment, protective systems and components be reduced. NOTE This standard may also serve as a guide for users of equipment, protective systems and components when assessing the risk of explosion in the wor
34、kplace and selecting the appropriate equipment, protective systems and components. EN 1127-1:2007 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies methods for the identification and assessment of hazardous situations leading to explosion and the design and construction measures appropriate for the req
35、uired safety. This is achieved by: hazard identification; risk assessment; reduction of risk; information for use. The safety of equipment, protective systems and components can be achieved by eliminating of hazards and/or limiting the risk, i.e. by: a) design without using safeguarding; b) safeguar
36、ding; c) communication links if necessary to convey information to the user; d) any other precautions. Measures in accordance with a) (prevention) and b) (protection) against explosions are dealt with in Clause 6, measures according to c) against explosions are dealt with in Clause 7. Measures in ac
37、cordance with d) are not specified in this European Standard. They are dealt with in EN ISO 12100-1:2003, Clause 5. The preventive and protective measures described in this European Standard will not provide the required level of safety unless the equipment, protective systems and components are ope
38、rated within their intended use and are installed and maintained according to the relevant codes of practice or requirements. This standard specifies general design and construction methods to help designers and manufacturers in achieving explosion safety in the design of equipment, protective syste
39、ms and components. This European Standard is applicable to any equipment, protective systems and components intended to be used in potentially explosive atmospheres, under atmospheric conditions. These atmospheres can arise from flammable materials processed, used or released by the equipment, prote
40、ctive systems and components or from materials in the vicinity of the equipment, protective systems and components and/or from the materials of construction of the equipment, protective systems and components. This European Standard is applicable to equipment, protective systems and components at al
41、l stages of its use. This European Standard is only applicable to equipment group II which is intended for use in other places than underground parts of mines and those parts of surface installations of such mines endangered by firedamp and/or flammable dust. This European Standard is not applicable
42、 to: i) medical devices intended for use in a medical environment; ii) equipment, protective systems and components where the explosion hazard results exclusively from the presence of explosive substances or unstable chemical substances; EN 1127-1:2007 (E) 7 iii) equipment, protective systems and co
43、mponents where the explosion can occur by reaction of substances with other oxidizers than atmospheric oxygen or by other hazardous reactions or by other than atmospheric conditions; iv) equipment intended for use in domestic and non-commercial environments where potentially explosive atmospheres ma
44、y only rarely be created, solely as a result of the accidental leakage of fuel gas; v) personal protective equipment covered by Directive 89/686/EEC; vi) seagoing vessels and mobile offshore units together with equipment on board such vessels or units; vii) means of transport, i.e. vehicles and thei
45、r trailers intended solely for transporting passengers by air or by road, rail or water networks, as well as means of transport insofar as such means are designed for transporting goods by air, by public road or rail networks or by water. Vehicles intended for use in a potentially explosive atmosphe
46、re shall not be excluded; viii) the design and construction of systems containing desired, controlled combustion processes, unless they can act as ignition sources in potentially explosive atmospheres. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of
