Overview

This standard defines relevant requirements set out in Annex I of the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, relating to machines which were placed on the European Economic Area (EEA) market for the first time, with the intent of simplifying the means of proving conformity with such requirements. Once this standard is designated a harmonized standard in the Official Journal of the European Communities, a manufacturer applying this standard may assume compliance with the requirements of the Machinery Directive (the so-called presumption of conformity). This European Standard specifies the requirements for the design, manufacturing, installation, transportation, electrical equipment and cleaning of derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal machines. The machines covered in this standard are used for derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal of meat and fish by cutting at a blade device. Derinding-, skinning-, and membrane removal machines for domestic purposes and table-top machines are not covered by this standard. This standard only applies to machines which were manufactured after the date of issue of this standard.
