What is EN ISO 14155-2:2021 ?

EN ISO 14152-2021 and EN ISO 14123-1:2021 are both technical standards developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and its European counterpart, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) respectively. These standards provide guidelines and specifications for implementing safety measures in machinery and interlocking devices, respectively.

EN ISO 14152-2021 is focused on ensuring the safety of machinery and equipment during operation, maintenance, and transportation. It sets out requirements for the design, manufacturing, installation, and use of machinery, with the aim of preventing accidents and injuries. The standard covers various aspects, including structural integrity, operating controls, emergency stops, protective devices, and hazard identification.

EN ISO 14123-1:2021, on the other hand, is focused on the design and implementation of interlocking devices associated with guards. It specifies requirements for interlocking devices used to guard machinery and equipment, with the aim of preventing potential accidents or incidents and ensuring the safety of operators and workers.

The primary purpose of EN ISO 14152-2021 is to ensure the safety of machinery and equipment during operation, maintenance, and transportation. It aims to prevent accidents and injuries by setting forth requirements for design, manufacturing, installation, and use of machinery.

EN ISO 14123-1:2021, on the other hand, is focused on preventing potential accidents or incidents by ensuring that interlocking systems are properly designed and installed. It provides manufacturers, machine builders, and users with appropriate guidance to achieve the objectives of preventing unauthorized access to hazardous areas and ensuring the safety of operators and workers.

Both EN ISO 14152-2021 and EN ISO 14123-1:2021 are internationally recognized standards and are developed by the ISO and its European counterpart, respectively. They aim to provide guidelines and specifications for implementing safety measures in machinery and interlocking devices, respectively, with the aim of ensuring the safety of machinery and equipment and preventing accidents and injuries.
