EVS-EN ISO 19353:2016

This European Standard describes methods of identification of the fire hazard from machinery and the performance of a corresponding risk assessment. It describes the basic concepts and methodology of technical measures for fire prevention and protection to be taken during design and construction of machinery. The purpose of which is to reach the required safety level according to its intended use and its relations with measures independent of machinery .
The proposed new work item is related to the revision of ISO 19353 under Vienna Agreement in CEN and ISO with ISO lead. A research project, carried out by MetallBG, shows codes of practice for risk minimazation in case of fire. These codes of practice is proposed to be incorporated in a new informative Annex.
