Sécurité des machines - Distances de sécurité pour éviter que les zones dangereuses ne soient atteintes par les membres supérieurs et inférieurs

CAN/CSA-ISO 13857, Safety of machinery — Safety distances to prevent hazard zones being reached by upper and lower limbs is an adoption without modification of the identically titled ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 13857 (first edition, 2008-03-01).  This Standard establishes values for safety distances in both industrial and non-industrial environments to prevent machinery hazard zones being reached. The safety distances are appropriate for protective structures. It also gives about distances to impede free access by the lower limbs.  This Standard covers people of 14 years and older (the 5th percentile stature of 14 year olds is approximately 1 400 mm). In addition, for upper limbs only, it provides information for children older than 3 years (5th percentile stature of 3 year olds is approximately 900 mm) where reaching through openings needs to be addressed.
