7.8.3 RISK assessment for mechanical HAZARDS to body parts Risks shall be reduced to a tolerable level by at least the applicable minimum protective ‘measure af Table 12, taking into account the Severity, probability of exposure and possibility of avoiding the Hazaro. Conformity is checked by evaluation of the ISK assessment documentation to ensure that the [RISKS have been eliminated or that only TOLERABLE RISKS remainTable 12 ~ Protective measures against mechanical HazaRos to body parts ‘Mechanical HAZARD conditions ‘winimum protective measures: ‘Severity? | Probabiity otexposure | Possibiity ot avoiding the nazaao s Py c s Pr t 5 Ps 5 o 3 Pr 8 ue 5 Et y ™ E, s a M 5 : ‘No action Seventy 'M = Mogerate Ha2sR0s, suticlent to bruse or seraten body par.

They are based on combination of contact force, duration and contact area. The levels below shall be met i| NORMAL CONDITION and SINGLE-FAULT CONDITION. Tho maximum tolerable continuous contact pressure is 50 N/cm2, with a maximum force of 150 N. The maximum tolerable temporary force for body contact areas of at least 3 om? is 250 N for maximum duration of 0,75 s. The measurement of this force is made with a force gauge whi has a spring ratio of at least 25 Nimm. Conformity is checked by inspection and, in case of doubt, by measurement.7.3.5 Gap limitations between moving parts 7.8.5.1 Gap limitations between moving parts ~ Access normally allowed If the fores and pressure of the moving parts exceed the limits of 7.3.4 and if a body part could be inseried between moving parts, the width of the gap shall not decrease trom a value larger than the minimum gap of Table 13 for that body part to a value smaller than the ‘minimum gap in NORMAL CONDITION and SINGLE-FAULT CONDITION, Conformity ts checked by inspection and, in case of doubt, by measurement 7.3.5.2 Gap limitations between moving parts - Access normally prevented While parts are moving, gaps between moving parts into which body parts could be inserted shall not increase to mara than the acceptable gap of Table 14, in NORNAL CONDITION and SINGLE-FAULT CONDITION Conformity is chacked by inspection and, in case of doubt, by measurement.Table 13 - Minimum maintained gaps to prevent crushing for different body parts, | rartotbooy | etait iustrion nee i N bn we 3 sh a i n wager lym xTable 14 — Maximum gaps to prevent access for different body parts Maximum Gap (a) ? to prevent Part of body access mm Head 120 Foot 36 Finger 4 The values in this table are for adults.
