This standard does not apply to pneumatic systems.
This standard does not establish requirements for hazards caused by noise and vibration.
This Part of EN 12312 is not applicable to catering vehicles which are manufactured before the date of publication of this standard by CEN.
This part of EN 12312 is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1915-1, EN 1915-2, EN 1915-3 (for vehicles) and EN 1915-4.
Noise is dealt with in EN 1915-4.
Luftfahrt-Bodengeräte - Besondere Anforderungen - Teil 2: Catering-Hubfahrzeuge
Diese Europäische Norm legt die technischen Anforderungen zur Minimierung der in Abschnitt 4 aufgelisteten
Gefährdungen fest, die bei Inbetriebnahme, Betrieb und Wartung von Catering-Hubfahrzeugen auftreten
können, wenn diese in Übereinstimmung mit den Anweisungen des Herstellers oder seines Beauftragten
ausgeführt werden. Sie berücksichtigt auch einige Anforderungen, die von offiziellen Stellen, Luftfahrzeugund
Bodengeräteherstellern sowie Luftverkehrs- und Abfertigungsgesellschaften als wesentlich erachtet
wurden.
Diese Norm gilt für selbstfahrende Catering-Hubfahrzeuge mit Fahrerplatz und anhebbarem Kofferaufbau.
Beispiele für Catering-Hubfahrzeuge sind in Anhang A enthalten. Fahrzeuge gleichartiger Konstruktion, die
innerhalb der Belastungsgrenzen dieser Norm liegen und als Bodengeräte für andere Zwecke eingesetzt
werden, z. B. für die Kabinenreinigung oder zum Sitzwechsel, sind ebenfalls von dieser Norm erfasst.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für pneumatische Systeme.
Diese Norm enthält keine Festlegungen für Gefährdungen, die durch Lärm und Vibration verursacht werden.
Dieser Teil von EN 12312 gilt nicht für Catering-Hubfahrzeuge, die vor der Veröffentlichung dieser Norm durch
CEN hergestellt wurden.
!Es ist beabsichtigt, diesen Teil der EN 12312 in Verbindung mit EN 1915-1, EN 1915-2, EN 1915-3 (für
