This Standard applies to the design, construction,
installation, maintenance, inspection, and operation of
conveyors and conveying systems in relation to hazards.
The conveyors may be of the bulk material, package, or
unit-handling types, where the installation is designed
for permanent, temporary, or portable operation.
This Standard shall apply, with the exceptions noted
below, to all conveyor installations.
This Standard specifically excludes any conveyor
designed, installed, or used primarily for the movement
of people. This Standard does, however, apply to certain
conveying devices that incorporate within their supporting
structure workstations or operator's stations specifically
designed for authorized operating personnel.
This Standard does not apply to conveyors such as
underground mine conveyors for which specific standards
are already in effect, or to equipment such as
industrial trucks, tractors, trailers, automatic guided
vehicles, tiering machines (except pallet load tierers),
cranes, hoists, power shovels, power scoops, bucket drag
lines, trenchers, platform elevators designed to carry
passengers or an operator, manlifts, movingwalks, moving
stairways (escalators), highway or railroad vehicles,
cableways, tramways, dumbwaiters, material lifts,
industrial scissors lifts, pneumatic conveyors, robots, or
integral machine transfer devices. Some of the foregoing
have specific standards.
The provisions of this Standard shall apply to equipment
installed 1 yr after the date of issuance.
