Conveyor belts for general purpose use - Electrical and flammability safety requirements (Austrian Standard)
This European Standard specifies electrical and flammability safety requirements for general purpose conveyor belts not intended for use in underground installations and a means of categorizing conveyor belts in terms of the level of safety sought in their end use application. This European Standard does not provide electrical safety requirements for volume resistance which may be measured by the methods in EN ISO 21178 and which is relevant to some types of light conveyor belts. This European Standard is not applicable to conveyor belts which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.This European Standard specifies electrical and flammability safety requirements for general purpose conveyor belts not intended for use in underground installations and a means of categorizing conveyor belts in terms of the safety degree sought in their end use application. This European Standard does not provide electrical safety requirements for volume resistance which may be measured by the methods in EN ISO 21178 and which is relevant to some types of light conveyor belts. EN 12882 is not a product standard but is intended to help users of conveyor belts to select the required electrical and flammability safety properties needed following a suitable risk assessment. No requirements are, therefore, included for marking, information to be supplied, etc., as these matters are being covered in relevant product standards such as EN ISO 14890 and EN ISO 15236-1. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 188 Conveyor belts; the responsible National Committee is NA 045-02-05 AA Fördergurte (Conveyor belts) of Rubber Technology Standards Committee (FAKAU).
