Drilling and Foundation Equipment - Safety - Part 3: Horizontal Directional Drilling Equipment (HDD)
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 16228-3 standard primarily focuses on addressing the various hazards associated with the use of HDD equipment. This standard is part of a series that covers safety requirements for drilling and foundation equipment.
In particular, part 3 of the standard, in conjunction with part 1, establishes guidelines for ensuring the safety of horizontal directional drilling equipment. It looks not only at the intended usage of the equipment but also considers potential misuse scenarios that can be reasonably foreseen by the manufacturer over the entire lifespan of the machine.
The standard aims to provide manufacturers, operators, and users with guidelines and requirements to mitigate the significant hazards associated with using HDD equipment. It ensures that adequate safety measures are in place and that proper training and maintenance are provided to effectively operate the equipment in a safe manner. The standard works towards minimizing the risk of accidents and injuries related to the use of horizontal directional drilling equipment.
