specifies health and safety requirements, as well as some functional and performance requirements, for conveyor belt vehicles intended for loading/unloading of individual items of baggage or cargo on/off 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 conveyor belt vehicles Deviations 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 When provisions of this Type C standard are different from those that are 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 12312-3:2017 EN 12312-3:2017 (E) Scope This European Standard specifies the technical requirements to minimize the hazards listed in Clause that can arise during the commissioning, operation and maintenance of conveyor belt 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 a) self-propelled conveyor belt vehicles with or without driver's accommodation, b) self-propelled conveyor belt vehicles equipped with a van body, c) towed conveyor belt vehicles, intended to be used for manual loading/unloading of aircraft This European Standard does not apply to any extensions or appurtenances of conveyor belt vehicles entering the aircraft cargo compartment in order to facilitate loading and unloading therein (“Aircraft Bulk Loading Systems”, ABLS) This European Standard does not apply to pneumatic systems and to cable-less remote controls This part of EN 12312 is not applicable to conveyor belt vehicles that were manufactured before the date of publication of this
