24、nery concerned and the extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of this standard. While producing this standard it was assumed that: only competent persons operate the system; components without specific requirements are: a) designed in accordance with the usual engineering pra
25、ctice and calculation codes, including all failure modes (see also Bibliography and annex B); b) of sound mechanical and electrical construction; c) made of materials with adequate strength and of suitable quality; d) made of materials free of defects. harmful materials, such as asbestos are not use
26、d as part of the machine; components are kept in good repair and working order, so that required characteristics remain despite wear; by design of the load bearing elements, a safe operation of the system is assured for loading ranging from zero to 100 % of the rated possibilities and during the tes
27、ts; to ensure the correct function of the equipment the ambient temperature is maintained between -5 C to + 50 C; negotiation occurred between the manufacturer1)and the user concerning particular conditions for the use and places of use for the machinery related to health and safety; the place of in
28、stallation allows a safe use of the machine. 1) “manufacturer” within the European Union is to be understood as intended in the Machinery Directive. BS EN 617:2001+A1:2010EN 617:2001+A1:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard deals with the technical requirements to minimise the hazards listed in
29、clause 4 and annex A. These hazards can arise during the operation and maintenance of equipment to store bulk materials in silos, bunkers, bins and hoppers and their built-in inlet and outlet devices when carried out in accordance with the specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorised r
30、epresentative. This standard deals with safety related technical verification during commissioning. The following parts are dealt with in this standard (see Figure 1): Key A Bulk material to be stored B Storage space limited by the silo structure C Charging D Discharging E Associated and additional
31、equipment (e.g. flow aid devices, instrumentation, local control systems) F Working and traffic area Figure 1 Parts of a storage equipment NOTE Silos are made of different materials e.g. concrete, steel, aluminium, spun rayon, wood. Safety requirements and/or measures in this standard apply to equip
32、ment used in all environments. However, additional risk assessment and safety measures need to be considered in severe conditions, e.g. low or high temperatures out of the range covered by EN 60204-1, corrosive environments, strong magnetic fields, radioactive conditions and bulk materials to be sto
33、red included their flow the nature of which could lead to a dangerous situation. This standard does not cover requirements for: movable, non permanent storage equipment such as road vehicles, rail wagons, containers for bulk materials, ships and barges; blow tanks and pressure vessels as used in pne
34、umatic conveying systems; stockpiles and flat storage; storage equipment for non bulk materials (liquid, gas, slurries, sludge, silage); dismantling and transport of storage equipments; procedure for entering the silo and behaviour of persons inside the silo; BS EN 617:2001+A1:2010EN 617:2001+A1:201
