requirements, as well as some functional and performance requirements, for catering vehicles intended for cabin re-supply and servicing or loading and unloading of catering equipment and supplies on all aircraft types commonly in service in civil air transport The minimum essential criteria are considered to be of primary importance in providing safe, serviceable, economical, and practical catering vehicles Deviations from the recommended criteria should occur only after careful consideration, extensive testing, risk assessment and thorough service evaluation have shown alternative methods or conditions to be satisfactory Such deviations are outside the scope of this standard and a manufacturer should be able to demonstrate an equivalent level of protection This European Standard is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100 The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document When provisions of this Type C standard are different from those stated in Type A or B standards, the provisions of this Type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this Type C standard Deviations from requirements not fall within the presumption of conformity given by the standard BS EN 12312-2:2014 EN 12312-2:2014 (E) Scope This European Standard specifies the technical requirements to minimize the hazards listed in Clause which can arise during the commissioning, the operation and the maintenance of catering vehicles when used as intended, including misuse reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, when carried out in accordance with the specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorized representative It also takes into account some requirements recognized as essential by authorities, aircraft and ground support equipment (GSE) manufacturers as well as airlines and handling agencies This European Standard applies to self-propelled catering vehicles, with seated driver, equipped with a liftable van body This European Standard may be applied to catering vehicles used for other purposes provided that a suitable risk assessment is carried out to identify additional hazards or limitations in the requirements of this standard for a particular application Similar vehicles e.g cleaning equipment, equipment used for the exchange of aircraft seats, are also covered by this European Standard This European Standard does not establish requirements for noise and vibration NOTE EN 1915–3 and EN 1915–4 provide the general GSE noise and vibration requirements This European Standard does not apply to pneumatic systems This European Standard does not apply to unmodified automotive parts approved for public vehicles in the EU and EFTA., when used on a catering vehicle for the purpose for which they are designed This part of EN 12312 is not applicable to catering vehicles which are manufactured before the date of publication of this standard by CEN This part of EN 12312 when used in conjunction with EN 1915-1, EN 1915-2, EN 1915-3 and EN 1915-4 provides the requirements for catering vehicles Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are

OPERATIONS 4.2.2 Loading control Machinery with a maximum working load of not less than 000 kg or an overturning moment of not less than 40 000 Nm must be fitted with devices to warn the driver and prevent dangerous movements in the event: — of overloading, either as a result of the maximum working load or the maximum working moment due to the load being exceeded, or — of the overturning moment being exceeded HAZARDS DUE TO THE LIFTING OF PERSONS 6.1.2 Loading control for types of device moved by power other than human strength The requirements of section 4.2.2 apply regardless of the maximum working load and overturning moment, unless the manufacturer can demonstrate that there is no risk of overloading or overturning C.2 Demonstration of absence of risk of overloading/overturning The risk of overloading as mentioned in 6.1.2 of Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, Annex I does not exist for the machinery covered by this standard The reasons are: a) the machinery is exclusively designed for carriage of a defined maximum number of catering trolleys, each with a defined maximum load; b) no external overload to be expected; c) the risks due to incorrect use, such as excessive slope or use on unprepared supporting surfaces, not exist at aircraft parking areas; d) stability is automatically ensured for all configurations; e) the operating instructions delivered with each
