ISO 10472-6:1997 ✓ Most Recent

This part of ISO 10472 covers, together with ISO 10472-1, most significant hazards associated with ironing and fusing presses used in the laundry, garment and dry-cleaning industry, and in particular:

• scissor presses;
• cabinet presses;
• drawer presses;
• rotary presses (carousel) and other presses with multiple bucks.

This part of ISO 10472 complements the basic requirements as laid down in ISO/TR 12100-1 and ISO/TR 12100-2. It also gives guidance to the designer on assessing the risks associated with the hazards (see EN 1050) and on selecting measures for attaining the required safety level.

This part of ISO 10472 does not apply to ancillary equipment, e. g steam boilers, steam valves and supply pipe work, vent systems, work feed systems and discharge systems, and ducting to the atmosphere.
