Piranha Ironworker P65 11
Standards Compliance
Electrical System Design/Manufacture:
The machines manufactured in Rockford, Illinois, USA are furnished with electrical /
electronic products that are UL (Underwriter's Laboratory) approved. These components
have the UL numbers printed or stamped on them and can be easily traced to the point
of manufacture. In addition, all of the machines meet the current "Ontario Hydro" electrical
code for proper manufacture of the electrical circuits.
Hydraulic System Design/Manufacture:
Hydraulic components used in Piranha machines are approved by NFPA (National Fluid
Power Association), and those approval numbers can be traced through the
manufacturer's part numbers.
ANSI/OSHA Compliance:
Piranha meets the current ANSI construction standards for manufacturing of ironworkers,
press brakes, and shears:
ANSI Bll.5 - Ironworkers, Construction, Care, and Use
ANSI Bll.3 - Power press brakes, Construction, Care, and Use
ANSI Bll.4 - Shears, Construction, Care, and Use
The ANSI B11 standards were developed to establish levels of responsibility for
manufacturing safe products, and for installing, training, and using these products. The
levels of responsibility are fairly evenly distributed between the manufacturer, the
owner/end-user of the equipment, and the operator. Specific guarding requirements are,
in general, assigned to the owner/end-user of the equipment.
With specific reference to Ironworkers, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health
Administration) made a ruling on March 4, 1991 - under their standard number 1910.212,
specific to the OSHA Machine Guarding Standard 29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1). This ruling is
stated verbatim below:
"If an employer provides an iron worker machine (at his or her workplace),
which is manufactured in compliance with the safety requirements specified
in ANSI B 11.5-1988, and the guarding is maintained as required; then that
employer meets OSHA's machine guarding requirements for that machine."
Please understand that this ruling places the primary burden of responsibility for
maintenance of guarding on the owner/end-user of the equipment. Inherent in this
requirement is the responsibility of the owners/end-users of the equipment to develop and
maintain guarding specific to their application for the equipment. These ANSI safety
requirements may be acquired from:
