  2. extraction equipment (e.g. extraction hoods, ducts) within a woodworking machine including the outlet to which the extraction system is connected;

  3. chip and dust extraction systems designed for K ST values above 200 bar ms− 1;

  4. mechanical conveying systems between filter and storage facility;

  5. extraction systems and conveying systems with underpressure below 0,3 bar or overpressure above 0,3 bar;

  6. storage devices for pressed wood products (e.g. pellets) and humid shavings.

Requirements for containers are not dealt with in this standard.
