This document specifies the general safety requirements for hot rolling mills for flat products as defined in 3.1. This document is applicable to: Plant (machinery, equipment, devices according Annex D) used for the manufacturing of metal hot rolled flat products from the material supply from entry (1), via the mill stands (2) with roll changing devices (6), to the exit (5) (see Figure 1). Figure 1.... This standard does not cover: - thermo process equipment, e.g. in accordance with the EN 746 series; - continuous casting machines according to EN 14753; - hook conveyors according to EN 619; - non-fixed load lifting attachments, e.g. according to EN 13155; - roll shop equipment; - storage equipment (e.g. high-bay warehouses); - cranes, fork lifts, trucks and railway trucks and other vehicles; - process technology (e.g. treatment of water, rolling lubricant, compressed air, etc.); - separate cleaning system for exhaust air; - firefighting system. NOTE 1 Special requirements for protection of persons in case of using asphyxiant gases used in firefighting system is covered by this document (see Annex C). This document deals with significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant to hot rolling mills for flat products, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer. It provides the requirements to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the safety of persons and property during transport, commissioning, operation and de-commissioning, as well as in the event of foreseeable failures or malfunctions that can occur in the equipment. NOTE 2 For modernization, this document (C-type standard) can be applied for the part to be modernized.

This document specifies the general safety requirements for cold rolling mills for flat products as defined in 3.1. This document is applicable to: Plant (machinery, equipment, devices according Annex D) used for the manufacturing of metal cold rolled flat products from the material supply from entry (1), via the mill stand(s) (2) with roll changing devices (4), to the material removal (3) (see Figure 1). Figure 1... This standard does not cover: - Thermo process equipment, e.g. in accordance with EN 746 series; - Strip processing lines according to EN 15061, e.g. pickling line; - Abrasive blasting plants according to EN 1248; - Coil transporting system before coil take-over-point at the entry section and after coil take-over-point at the exit section, e.g. hook conveyors, overhead cranes, fork lift and railway trucks and other vehicles; - Roll shop equipment; - Hook conveyors according to EN 619; - Non-fixed load lifting attachments, e.g. according to EN 13155; - Storage equipment (e.g. high-bay warehouses); - Cranes, fork lifts, trucks and railway trucks and other vehicles; - Process technology (e.g. systems for rolling lubricant, compressed air, treatment of water, cleaning system for exhaust air); - Firefighting system.
