Overview
EN 62841-3-12:2019/A11:2026 specifies particular safety requirements for electric motor-operated transportable threading machines. Developed by CLC, this standard serves as an amendment to EN 62841-3-12:2019 within the broader EN 62841 series for hand-held, transportable, and garden machinery safety. Its purpose is to ensure that transportable threading machines operate safely for users, minimize electrical hazards, and align with essential European Union machinery directives, particularly Regulation (EU) 2023/1230.
This document provides updated references to international publications, clarifies requirements for electric supply and connections, and creates clear guidance for conformity with EU legislation. Compliance with EN 62841-3-12:2019/A11:2026 supports manufacturers and stakeholders in meeting legal and market requirements for electric tools and industrial machinery safety within Europe.
Key Topics
- Scope and Definitions: Revises the scope, terms, and definitions specific to transportable threading machines, ensuring clarity and consistency in their application.
- Electrical Safety: Outlines critical requirements regarding input, current, supply cords, and their durability for robust and safe operation in diverse working environments.
- Normative References: Updates and replaces references to ensure alignment with the most recent and relevant international and European standards, such as IEC 60947-5-1 and ISO 7-1.
- Conformity with EU Regulations: Details the correspondence between EN 62841-3-12:2019/A11:2026 and the essential requirements of Regulation (EU) 2023/1230, supporting conformity assessment for CE marking.
- Amendments and Modifications: Specifies changes to clauses related to terminology, technical requirements for load torque, and supply connection standards to strengthen overall safety.
Applications
EN 62841-3-12:2019/A11:2026 is directly relevant to:
- Manufacturers of Transportable Threading Machines: Ensures the machines are designed and constructed to meet strict European safety standards before placement on the market.
- Suppliers and Importers: Provides a framework for verifying compliance with safety regulations and supporting technical documentation.
- Testing and Certification Bodies: Facilitates standardized testing and conformity assessments, essential for CE marking and access to European markets.
- Industrial Users: Helps workplaces comply with occupational safety regulations by using certified threading machines, reducing workplace hazards and operational downtime.
- Regulatory Authorities: Assists in market surveillance and enforcement of safety compliance across the European Economic Area.
Typical environments where this standard is crucial include mechanical workshops, construction sites, plumbing and piping installations, and industrial maintenance settings where transportable threading machines are frequently used.
