Introduction
The structure of safety standards in the field of machinery is as follows:
a) type-A standards (basic safety standards) giving basic concepts, principles for design, and general
aspects that can be applied to all machinery;
b) type-B standards (generic safety standards) dealing with one safety aspect or one or more type(s)
of safeguard that can be used across a wide range of machinery:
— type-B1 standards on particular safety aspects (e.g. safety distances, surface temperature, noise);
— type-B2 standards on safeguards (e.g. two-hand controls, interlocking devices, pressure
sensitive devices, guards);
c) type-C standards (machine safety standards) dealing with detailed safety requirements for a
particular machine or group of machines.
This document is a type-B standard as stated in ISO 12100.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.)
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
In addition, this document is intended for standardization bodies elaborating type-C standards.
The requirements of this document can be supplemented or modified by a type-C standard.
For machines which are covered by the scope of a type-C standard and which have been designed and
built according to the requirements of that standard, the requirements of that type-C standard take
precedence.
Keeping a machine in a stopped condition while persons are present in danger zones is one of the most
important conditions of the safe use of machinery and hence, one of the major aims of the machine
designer and machine user.
In the past, the concepts of “operating machine” and “stopped machine” were generally unambiguous; a
machine was
— operating when its movable elements or some of them were moving;
— stopped when its movable elements were at rest.
Machine automation has made the relationship between “operating” and “moving” on one hand and
“stopped” and “at rest” on the other hand, more difficult to define. Automation has also increased the

potential for unexpected start-up and a significant number of hazardous events have occurred where
machines, stopped for diagnostic work or corrective actions, started up unexpectedly.
Hazards other than mechanical hazards generated by movable elements (e.g. from a laser beam) also
need to be taken into account.
The risk assessment relating to the presence of persons in a danger zone of a stopped machine needs to
take into account the probability of an unexpected start-up of the hazard-generating elements.
This document provides machine designers and machinery safety standard technical committees with
samples of built-in measures which can be used to prevent unexpected start-up.

SIST EN ISO 14118:2018
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 14118:2017(E)
Safety of machinery — Prevention of unexpected start-up
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements for designed-in means aimed at preventing unexpected machine
start-up (see 3.2) to allow safe human interventions in danger zones (see Annex A).
This document applies to unexpected start-up from all types of energy source, i.e.:
— power supply, e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic;
— stored energy due to, e.g. gravity, compressed springs;
— external influences, e.g. from wind.
This document does not specify performance levels or safety integrity levels for safety-related parts of
control systems. While available means to prevent unexpected start-up are identified, this document
does not specify the means for the prevention of unexpected machine start-up for specific machines.
NOTE A type-C standard can define the required means for the prevention of harm arising from unexpected
start-up. Otherwise, the requirements for a specific machine need to be determined by risk assessment outside
the scope of this document.

3.2
unexpected start-up
unintended start-up
start-up (3.1) which, because of its unexpected nature, generates a risk to persons
Note 1 to entry: This can be caused by, for example:
— a start command which is the result of a failure in or an external influence on the control system;
— a start command generated by inopportune action on a start control or other parts of the machine such as a
sensor or a power control element;
— restoration of the power supply after an interruption;
— external/internal influences (gravity, wind, self-ignition in internal combustion engines, etc.) on parts of the
machine.
Note 2 to entry: Machine start-up during the normal sequence of an automatic cycle is not unintended, but can
be considered as being unexpected from the point of view of the operator. Prevention of hazardous events in this
case involves the use of safeguarding measures (see 6.3).
3.3
isolation and energy dissipation
procedure which consists of all of the four following actions:
a) isolating (disconnecting, separating) the machine (or defined parts of the machine) from all power
supplies;
b) locking (or otherwise securing), if necessary (for instance, when the operator is not able, from
every location he may be at, to check that the power supply remains interrupted), all the isolating
units in the “isolated” position;
c) dissipating or restraining (containing) any stored energy which may give rise to a hazard.
Note 1 to entry Energy considered in c) may be stored in e.g. mechanical parts continuing to move
through inertia, e.g. backdriving of a ventilation fan, mechanical parts liable to move by gravity, capacitors
and accumulators, pressurized fluids and springs.
d) verifying by using a safe working procedure (e.g. by measuring) that the actions taken according to
a), b) and c) have produced the desired effect.
4 General measures to prevent unexpected start-up
4.1 General
A risk assessment in accordance with ISO 12100 shall be performed to identify the required measures
to prevent unexpected start-up.
NOTE Measures to prevent unexpected start-up of specific machinery can be specified in a type-C standard.
The machine manufacturer is responsible for the suitability of measures identified by risk assessment.
The necessary procedures to prevent unexpected start-up including energy dissipation or restraint
(containment) and verification method if necessary, shall be described in the instruction handbook
of the machine and/or in warnings on the machine itself. The instructions should be provided with
respect to each;
— source of energy;
— means;
— task (see Annex A);

— level (see Figure 1).
4.2 Manual measures for isolation and energy dissipation
Machines shall be provided with manually operated devices for isolation of energy supplies and
energy dissipation (see Clause 5), considering the required task to be performed with the machine, e.g.
maintenance, work on power circuits and decommissioning.
4.3 Other means to prevent unexpected (unintended) start-up
If the use of manual isolation and energy dissipation is not appropriate for frequent short interventions,
the designer shall provide additional automatic controlled functions (see Clause 6) to prevent
unexpected start-up.
NOTE 1 Examples of tasks which can require the presence of persons in danger zones are given in Annex A.
The designer should determine as completely as possible the different machine operating and stopping
modes and the need for the presence of persons in danger zones. Appropriate safety measures can then
be provided. These measures are intended to prevent operators from being induced to use hazardous
operating modes and hazardous intervention techniques caused by technical difficulties in the use of
the machine.
4.4 Signalling and warning (delayed start)
When required by the risk assessment, an audible and/or visible warning signal and delayed start shall
be provided as a means to prevent injury from the unexpected start-up of machinery.
The warning signal shall be audible and/or visual to alert exposed person(s) of the impending start-up.
The duration of the warning signal and the period of time corresponding to the delayed start-up shall
last long enough to enable the persons either to leave the danger zone before the machine starts or to
prevent the machine starting, e.g. by actuating an emergency stop device.
A warning signal and delayed start-up shall be provided when all danger zones cannot be seen from
the operator control station or when the presence of persons in danger zones cannot be detected or
excluded.
Where applicable, machinery should provide an indication of different states related to start-up, e.g.
“waiting for a start command”, “waiting for material”, “power on”, etc.
5 Isolation and energy dissipation
5.1 Prevention of unexpected start-up upon restoration of any power supplies
Risks need to be considered where it is expected that the restoration or start-up after the energy
dissipation or interruption could lead to unexpected movements.
Where necessary, (an) appropriate measure(s) to prevent it shall be taken.
5.2 Devices for isolation from power supplies
5.2.1 Isolation devices shall:
— ensure a reliable disconnection or separation from the energy source;
— have a reliable mechanical link between the manual control and the isolating element(s);
— be equipped with clear and unambiguous identification of the state of the isolation device which
corresponds to each position of its manual control (actuator).
