  Description:

Cranes - Control devices and control stations

  Purpose

EN 13557 specifies health and safety design requirements for control devices and control stations and their operating positions for all types of cranes. Specific requirements for types of cranes are given in the appropriate European Standard for the particular crane type (Annex B). EN 13557 covers specific hazards which could occur during the use of control devices and control stations. It does not cover hazards which could occur during transport, construction, modification, de-commissioning, or disposal. The hazards covered by this standard are identified in Annex A. It does not deal with noise hazards because these are dealt with in safety standards for specific types of cranes. It also does not address the design of the cabin regarding its sound insulation properties. EN 13557 does not apply to cranes manufactured before the date of its publication.
