EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 62841-3-12 testing. IEC EN 62841-3-12 applies to portable threading machines. The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase AC or DC appliances and 480 V for three-phase AC appliances.
This standard deals with the hazards posed by tools that are reasonably foreseeable and encountered by all persons in normal use. Power tools that can be mounted on a support or workbench for use as a stationary tool without any modification to the tool itself are within the scope of this standard, and such a combination of a hand tool and a support is considered.
The standard covers the following features of portable threading machines:
Construction and design: The standard specifies the design and construction requirements to ensure the safe and reliable use of portable tapping machines. This includes requirements for electrical safety, mechanical safety, and protection against hazards such as flying debris.
Controls and switches: The standard specifies requirements for controls and switches used to operate portable threading machines. This includes requirements for the location, operation and labeling of controls and switches to ensure they are easily accessible and understandable by the user.
Guards and protective devices: The standard specifies requirements for guards and protective devices used to prevent the operator from coming into contact with the cutting tool. This includes requirements for the design and construction of guards and protective devices, and the labeling and testing of these devices.
Noise and vibration: The standard specifies requirements for noise and vibration levels produced by portable threading machines. This includes requirements for the maximum noise and vibration levels that can be produced by the machine, as well as labeling and testing requirements to ensure compliance with these requirements.
Cutting tools: The standard specifies requirements for the design and construction of cutting tools used in portable threading machines. This includes requirements for the materials used to make the cutting tools, as well as requirements for the shape and size of the cutting edges to ensure safe and effective working.
In general, the standard is designed to ensure that portable threading machines are safe and reliable to use and meet the performance and safety requirements required for their intended use. Compliance with this standard can help minimize the risk of accidents and injuries associated with the use of such machines.
