1 Scope
This European Standard, together with part 1, deals with all significant hazards for
jetting, grouting and injection equipment when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which
are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time
of the machine (see Clause 4).
The requirements of this part are complementary to the common requirements formulated
in EN 16228‑1:2014+A1:2021.
This document does not repeat the requirements from EN 16228‑1:2014+A1:2021, but adds or replaces the requirements for application for jetting, grouting and injection equipment.
Rigs for drilling, vibrating, pile driving, to be used for preparing holes for these
applications are covered by EN 16228‑2:2014+A1:2021 and/or EN 16228‑4:2014+A1:2021.
Jetting, grouting and injection equipment is used in the preparation, transfer and application of grouting materials used for either:
Jetting, grouting and injection equipment are constituted by all equipment and installations, operated by hand or
electrically, pneumatically, mechanically or hydraulically powered, necessary for
the following:
-
— mixing, storing, measuring and pumping of substances (cement suspension, mortar or
chemical liquids/mixtures);
-
— jetting, grouting and injection processes (of/into subsoil) with low, medium or high pressure or vacuum systems;
-
—
deleted text
-
— all control systems, electrical or mechanical pressure and flow recorders, for monitoring
the grouting;
-
— all jetting, grouting and injection accessories, such as: special tools, lances, rods, sockets, packers, retention clamps
and swivel hooks.

This document does not apply to machines and equipment for conveying, spraying and
placing concrete and mortar (covered by EN 12001).
This document does not deal with jetting, grouting or injection units intended to use products that generate toxic gases.
