Abstract

This document specifies the safety and cleaning requirements applicable to slaughtering traps intended for bovine animals and equines. These requirements take into account hazards that may arise from the transport, mounting, adjustment, maintenance and use of these slaughtering traps. NOTE This document takes into account the protection of animals at the time of killing. This document is applicable to machinery or installations intended to facilitate the slaughter of bovine animals or equidae that weigh between 100 kg and 1 200 kg. They are either rotating slaughtering traps or fixed slaughtering traps. This document does not apply to the following machinery and zones: — "restrainers": systems for holding and conveying via conveyor belts; — slaughtering traps with a side door that opens under the weight of the animal alone; — slaughtering traps where the only source of energy is manual effort. This document does not cover the following essential requirements of Machinery Directive: — safety and reliability of control systems; — selection of control or operating modes; — failure of the power supply; — isolation of energy source.
