Overview

This European Standard defines relevant requirements set out in Annex I of EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, relating to machines which were placed on the European Economic Area (EEA) for the first time, with the intent of simplifying the means of proving conformity with these requirements. Once this standard is designated a harmonized standard in the Official Journal of the European Union, 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 common safety requirements for drilling and foundation equipment. Part 1 of this European Standard deals with the significant hazards common to drilling and foundation equipment (see Annex A), when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (transport, assembly, dismantling, equipment in service and out of service, maintenance, moving on site, storage, disabling and scrapping). The requirements specified in this part of the standard are common to two or more families of drilling and foundation equipment. This document gives safety requirements for all types of drilling and foundation equipment and is intended to be used in conjunction with one of parts 2 to 7. These machine specific parts do not repeat the requirements from Part 1 but supplement or modify the requirements for the type of drilling and foundation equipment in question. For multipurpose machinery, the parts of the standard that cover the specific functions and applications are used, for example a drilling machine also used as a piling machine will use the relevant requirements of EN 16228-1, EN 16228-2, and EN 16228-4. The following machines are excluded from the scope of this standard: * tunnelling machines, unshielded tunnel boring machines and rodless shaft boring machines for rock according to prEN 16191; * raise boring machines; * drill rigs used in oil and gas industry. Specific requirements for offshore applications are not covered by this European Standard. Where a drilling or foundation equipment of fixed configuration that is not intended to be separated is assembled using a carrier based on earth-moving equipment, agricultural equipment, or a crane, then the completed assembly will conform to the requirements specified in this drilling and foundation equipment standard. Drilling and foundation equipment within the scope of EN 16228 parts 1 to 6 may include interchangeable auxiliary equipment within the scope of EN 16228-7, either as an integral part of its construction or as interchangeably fitted equipment. If drilling and foundation equipment is intended to be used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, additional requirements will need to be met which are not covered by this standard. This standard contains the German version of EN 16228-1:2014, which has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 151 "Construction equipment and building material machines - Safety" at the European Committee of Standardization (CEN). This standard differs from DIN EN 791:2010-01 and DIN EN 996:2010-02 as follows: a) the EN 16228 standards series, Parts 1 to 7, has a completely new approach and replaces the previous standards EN 996 and EN 791 specifying piling and drilling equipment; b) the new EN 16228 standards series specifies drilling and foundation equipment for specific applications. During the preparation of the standard, the national interests were represented by Working Committee NA 060-13-03 AA "Bohrgeräte" ("Drilling equipment") at Technical Section Technical Section "Bau- und Baustoffmaschinen" ("Construction equipment and building material machines") of the Standards Committee Mechanical Engineering (NAM) at DIN. Representatives of manufacturers and users of drilling and foundation equipment, and of the employers liability insurance associations contributed to this standard.
