Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
• machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
• health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
• machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
• machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
• service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
• consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machines concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the other
standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C
standard.
This document covers specific safety requirements where industrial trucks will operate in potentially
explosive atmospheres that are not covered exhaustively by:
• EN 1459-1:2017+A1:2020 and EN 1459-2:2015+A1:2018;
• ISO 24134:2006;

Assessment of hazards
The product needs to be designed in such a way that it is fit for its purpose or function and can be adjusted
and maintained without putting persons at risk when used under the conditions foreseen by the
manufacturer.
In order to properly design a product and to cover all specific safety requirements, the manufacturer
needs to identify the hazards that apply to their product and carry out a risk assessment. The
manufacturer then needs to design and construct the product taking this assessment into account.
The aim of this procedure is to eliminate the risk of accidents throughout the foreseeable lifetime of the
machinery, including the phases of assembling and dismantling where risks of accidents can also arise
from foreseeable abnormal situations.
In selecting the most appropriate methods, the manufacturer needs to apply the following principles, in
the order given here:
a) eliminate or reduce risks as far as possible by design (inherently safe machinery design and
construction);
b) take the necessary protective measures in relation to risks that cannot be eliminated by design;
c) inform users of any shortcoming of the protective measures adopted;
d) indicate whether any particular training is required;
e) specify any need to provide personal protection equipment;
f) refer to the appropriate user's document for proper operating instructions.
Industrial trucks need to be designed to prevent foreseeable misuse wherever possible, if such would
engender risk. In other cases, the manufacturer's instructions need to draw the user's attention to ways
shown by experience in which the machinery ought not to be used.
This document does not repeat all the technical rules which are state-of-the-art, and which are applicable
to the material used to construct the industrial truck. Refer to ISO 12100:2010.

1 Scope
This document applies to self-propelled and pedestrian propelled manual and semi-manual industrial
trucks as defined in ISO 5053-1:2020 including their load handling devices and attachments (hereafter
referred to as trucks) intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
NOTE 1 Attachments mounted on the load carrier or on fork arms which are removable by the user are not
considered to be a part of the truck.
This document specifies supplementary technical requirements for the prevention of the ignition of an
explosive atmosphere of flammable gases, vapours, mists or dusts by industrial trucks of equipment
group II and equipment category 2G, 3G, 2D or 3D.
NOTE 2 The relationship between an equipment category (hereafter referred to as category) and the
corresponding zone (area classification) is shown in informative Annex B.
This document is not applicable to:
• trucks of equipment group I;
• trucks of equipment group II, equipment category 1;
• trucks intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres with hybrid mixtures;
• protective systems.
This document is not applicable to trucks intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres of carbon
disulphide (CS ), carbon monoxide (CO) and/or ethylene oxide (C H O) due to the special properties of
2 2 4
these gases.
Technical requirements relating to lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells as energy sources are not given in
this document due to their specific hazards.
