ISO 17096:2015 pdf download.Cranes — Safety — Load lifting attachments
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies safety requirements for the following non-fixed load lifting attachments for cranes, hoists, and manually controlled load manipulating devices as defined in Clause 3:
— plate clamps;
— vacuum lifters;
— self priming,
— non-self-priming (pump, venturi, turbine);
— electric lifting magnets (battery-fed and main-fed);
— permanent lifting magnets;
— electro-permanent lifting magnets;
— lifting beams/spreader beams;
— C-hooks;
— lifting forks;
— clamps.
This International Standard does not specify the additional requirements for the following:
a) load lifting attachments in direct contact with foodstuffs or pharmaceuticals requiring a high level of cleanliness for hygiene reasons;
b) hazards resulting from handling hazardous materials (e.g. explosives, hot molten masses,radiating materials);
c) hazards caused by operation in an explosive atmosphere;
d) hazards caused by noise;
e) electrical hazards;
f) hazards due to hydraulic and pneumatic components.
This International Standard does not cover attachments intended to lift people.
This International Standard does not cover slings, ladles, expanding mandrels, buckets, grabs or grab buckets, and container spreaders.

4.2.2.5 Means shall be provided to prevent the risks due to vacuum losses. This shall be as follows.
a) In the case of vacuum lifters with a vacuum pump: A reserve vacuum with a non-return valve between the reserve vacuum and the pump located as close as possible to the reserve vacuum.
b) In the case of vacuum lifters with venturi-system: A pressure-reserve-tank or vacuum-reserve-tank with a non-return valve between the reserve vacuum and the venturi system located as close as possible to the reserve vacuum.
c) In the case of turbine vacuum lifters: A supporting battery or an additional flywheel-mass.
d) In the case of self-priming vacuum lifters: A reserve-stroke at least equal to 5 % of the total stroke of the piston.
NOTE Vacuum losses can occur, for example, due to leaks or in the case of non-self-priming vacuum lifters,due to a power failure.
4.2.2.6 There shall be a device to warn automatically that the fall range is reached when vacuum losses cannot be compensated. The warning signal shall be optical or acoustic depending upon the circumstances of use for the vacuum lifter and in accordance with ISO 11428, ISO 11429, and ISO 7731. The warning device shall work even when there is a power failure of the vacuum lifter. NOTE The warning device is not the pressure measuring device of 4.2.2.2 or the indicator of 4.2.2.3.
