About This Item
TS EN 12408 is a safety standard focused on quality assurance for cableway installations designed to carry persons. Its technical emphasis is not the core mechanical design of the installation itself, but the quality assurance arrangements that support the supply of the installation and its safety components. In this way, it helps structure the processes that underpin safe operation.
Quality assurance for suppliers and safety components
The document sets out quality assurance procedures that supplement the other standards cited in its foreword and it applies across different cableway systems. It applies to suppliers of cableway installations or safety components whether or not they have a quality management system conforming to EN ISO 9001. Where quality management systems are used, reference is to be made to EN ISO 9001. For suppliers without such a system, the provisions of this document are to be regarded as minimum requirements.
Traceability and the limits of the standard
The standard also includes requirements for the traceability of safety components, which is intended to support investigation or recall when a component may endanger safety. In general technical terms, traceability means being able to follow a component’s identity and history through production, delivery and the supply chain. TS EN 12408 supplements, rather than replaces, the technical requirements in standards such as EN 1709, EN 1908, EN 12927 series, EN 12929 series, EN 12930, EN 12397, EN 13107, EN 13223, EN 13243 and prEN 13796 series. It does not apply to cableways for goods transport or to inclined lifts.
