ISO 13577-1 is the first part of the ISO 13577 multi-series that discusses industrial furnaces and associated processing equipment.
ISO 13577-1 specifies the general safety requirements common to industrial furnaces and associated processing equipment (TPE).
ISO 13577-1 deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant to TPE. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are covered are indicated in ISO 13577-1.
ISO 13577-1 on safety requirements of Industrial furnaces and associated processing equipment is useful for:
Industrial furnaces and TPE are vital to production-based industries. They are regularly interacted by their operators and other workers on the production floor. However, these machines can pose a serious threat to the safety of the workers in case of accidents or malfunction.
ISO 13577-1 specifies the requirements intended to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the safety of persons and property during commissioning, start-up, operation, shut-down, maintenance periods, and dismantling, as well as in the event of foreseeable faults or malfunctions that can occur in the equipment.
ISO 13577-1 also gives additional requirements to users for TPE in certain countries or regions.
Overall, the guidelines of ISO 13577-1 help you to enhance the safety in the production floor and thereby ensure the safety of your workers.
