BS EN 12312-6:2017 specifies the technical requirements to minimize the hazards listed in Clause 4
which can arise during the commissioning, the operation and the maintenance of deicers and
equipment designed exclusively for de-icing and washing of aircraft with de-icing/anti-icing/washing
liquids when used as intended, including misuse reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, when
carried out in accordance with the specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorized
representative. It also takes into account some requirements recognized as essential by authorities,
aircraft and ground support equipment (GSE) manufacturers as well as airlines and handling agencies.NOTE 1 Safety of aircraft in connection with de-icing/anti-icing operations is not dealt with in this European
Standard. Any, even minor, aircraft de-icing or anti-icing operation directly affects flight safety on take-off.
Prevention of aeronautical accidents resulting from in-flight icing principally concerns the fluids and methods
used, but it may in certain cases also concern de-icing or anti-icing equipment design or operation. These
aeronautical aspects are controlled by the applicable Civil Aviation regulations ICAO 9640-AN/940,Manual of
aircraft ground de-icing/anti-icing operationsand EASA EU-OPS Subpart D 1.345 and its Acceptable Means of
Compliance (AMC) and covered in ISO 11076:2012 (AEA Recommendations). They are not covered in this
European Standard.Cross References:EN 795:2012EN 1915-1:2013EN 1915-2:2001+A1:2009EN 1915-3EN 1915-4EN ISO 12100:2010ISO 12100:2010EN ISO 13732-1ISO 13732-1EN ISO 13849-1:2015ISO 13849-1:2015EN ISO 13850:2015ISO 13850:2015ISO 4305ISO 11076:2012DIN 51130:20142006/42/ECEN 143:2000EN 149:2001+A1:2009EN 280:2013+A1:2013EN 779:2012EN 1777EN 1822-1:2009EN 13034:2005+A1:2009EN 14387:2004+A1:2008EN ISO 13688:2013ISO 13688:2013EN ISO 13732-1ISO 13732-1EN ISO 17491-3:2008ISO 17491-3:2008ISO 6966-2:2014ISO 11075:2007ISO 11077:2014ISO 11078:2007AHM 975AHM 977IC AO 9640-AN/940SAE/ARP 1971CSAE/ARP 5058SAE AMS 1424SAE AMS 1428All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
