Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work o f preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters o f
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
di fferent types o f ISO documents should be noted. This document was dra fted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some o f the elements o f this document may be the subject o f

be marked.

ISO 1 3 5 77-1 : 2 01 6(E)
4.1 .2 .1 Stability
The TPE structures shall be designed to withstand their static and dynamic loads. The TPE shall be
designed for normal and foreseeable accidental thermal static and dynamic working stresses, including
those resulting from overpressurization or operation below atmospheric pressure.
The design shall also take account o f vibration, wind pressure, impact and other foreseeable external
forces, including earthquakes.
4.1 .2 .2 Access
All parts o f the TPE that need to be accessed by personnel for operation and maintenance shall be
served by adequate means o f access, pre ferably fixed. Stairways, platforms and service floors shall be
safe and shall be equipped with adequate safeguards (see 4.2.10). Inspection and service floors of the
TPE shall be sa fe, well lit, well ventilated, protected against heat radiation and be fire-resistant (see
4.4.3.1).
Account shall be taken o f the need for emergency escape routes to avoid the trapping o f personnel in
the event o f hazardous situations (such as fire or the buildup o f toxic gases).
4.1 .2 .3 Roofs and covers
Where the roo fs or covers o f the TPE (e.g. ceramic kilns or melting TPE) have been designed to be
walked on, they shall be accessible by a sa fe means.
Roo fs or covers to which access is not intended shall be marked and designated as not accessible and
shall be adequately guarded to prevent access.
Roo fs or covers that have to be walked on for operating, maintenance and inspection purposes and
that are more than 1 m above floor level shall be accessible through sa fe ascents and shall be fitted
with railings to prevent falls. Where the heat source is located in the roof, for example in the ceramics
or glass industry, one escape route shall be available in front o f, and one behind, the firing zone, one o f
which shall be a stairway. For design requirements, see 4.1.2.4.

In general, the design of access channels and stairs shall be in accordance with ISO 14122-2 and
ISO 14122-3. For channels intended for repair purposes below tunnel furnaces or kilns, the unobstructed
passage way shall be at least 1,80 m high by 0,70 m wide, and shall be accessible through two stairways,
one o f which shall be in front o f, and the other behind the firing zone. I f the stairways are in the area o f
the firing zone, emergency exits shall be available in front o f, and behind, the firing zone.
4 . 2 M e c h a n i c a l s a f
e ty
4.2 .1 General
The design shall be such as to avoid injury by movement o f the machinery parts o f the TPE, by crushing,
shearing, entanglement, drawing-in or impact. It shall also prevent hazardous situations arising where
high-pressure fluids are used or where parts o f the TPE and processed material are liable to be ejected.
The stability o f the TPE during operation and the sa fety o f the access areas around the TPE shall also be
considered.
Where the construction of the TPE includes
— corners and projections,
— passages of reduced height, and
— manhole covers, drains, etc.

ISO 1 3 5 77-1 : 2 01 6(E)
they shall be protected and marked in such a way as to minimize the hazard.
Emergency stop devices shall be in accordance with ISO 13850.
4.2.2 Crushing
The design shall incorporate means to minimize hazard to personnel arising from
— movement o f materials and machinery,
— automation,
— suspended loads,
— falling materials, and
— moving parts.
All moving machinery that can present a hazard shall be guarded wherever practicable. Where guarding
is not practicable, audible and/or visual signals shall be provided. Strategically positioned emergency
stop mechanisms shall be provided to stop potentially hazardous moving machinery.
Guarding, where provided, shall comply with ISO 14119 and ISO 14120.
Any traversing part o f the TPE or material carried by it shall not be closer to any fixed structure than
the sa fety distance requirements given in ISO 13854.
The design o f the TPE shall take account o f the minimum distance requirement. See ISO 13854,
ISO 13857, ISO 15534-1 and/or ISO 15534-2.
4.2.3 Shearing
Where possible, shear traps shall be eliminated by
a) filling the gaps or reducing the maximum clearance between the moving parts, such that parts o f
the body cannot enter the gap, and
b) increasing the minimum clearance between the shearing parts, such that parts o f the body can
enter the gap sa fely (see ISO 13854 and ISO 15534-1).
Where it is not possible to avoid the creation of a shear trap, adequate guarding shall be used (see
ISO 14119 and ISO 14120).
Means shall be provided to prevent unintentional closure or opening of moving parts (e.g. doors,
conveyors and elevators) during operation and maintenance.
4.2 .4 Entanglement
Design measures shall be taken, or suitable guards shall be provided, to prevent entanglement by
rotating sha fts, conveyors and transmission machinery (see ISO 14120).
4.2 .5 Drawing-in
Design measures shall be taken, or suitable guards shall be provided, to avoid drawing-in (see
ISO 14120).
4.2 .6 Impact
NOTE Impact hazards are caused by objects that act against the inertia o f the body but do not penetrate.

Re q u i re m e n ts s p e c i fi c to th e U S A
F.1 General
For the purposes o f this document, the specific regional requirements given in F.2 to F.4.2 are applicable
to the USA.
The requirements o f this annex shall ensure a level o f sa fety o f at least equivalent to the main body o f
this document.
F.2 Background
For equipment intended to be used in the USA, the “Authority having jurisdiction” (AHJ) has the
ultimate authority to approve the overall system installation o f the equipment. The AHJ may be a
state government, local fire marshal, local building inspector, local board or commission, the user’s
insurance underwriter, an engineer or the end user. The federal and state governments of the USA
have occupational sa fety and health requirements for a given installation via the Occupational Sa fety
and Health Administration (OSHA), but the OSHA does not typically act as the AHJ during the initial
installation and commissioning of the equipment.
The OHSA requirements for the USA (29 CFR Part 1910 General Industry Standards) can be
downloaded at www.osha.gov. Some common hazards are covered in Annex A of this document in the
“List o f significant hazards”. However, complying with these may not be enough to satis fy the OSHA
requirements in the USA for a given installation.
The end user is responsible for identi fying the AHJ for a given installation.
For applications to which this document is applicable, NFPA 86 is the recognized American national
standard in the USA. The scope o f NFPA 86 is limited to hazards associated with fires and explosions. In
addition to equipment requirements, it also includes requirements for the end user and the installation
location, whereas this document only covers requirements for the equipment. Thus, complying with
this document does not mean that the installation meets the requirements o f NFPA 86 or the AHJ,
who might have additional or different requirements than those in this document. However, since all
installations are subject to the approval o f the AHJ, it is possible for equipment complying with the
requirements of this document to be accepted.
F.3 Normative references

It shall be verified from the scope o f each European directive whether or not the directive is additionally
applicable.
Other requirements are not given in this document, but are specified in the EC directives themselves.
Certification, declaration, literature and language requirements are specified in each directive. It shall
be verified, for each applicable directive, which additional conditions are required for the TPE be fore it
is installed and commissioned in countries specified in this subclause.
