NOTE 1 Hazards related to internal combustion engines of robotic feed systems (e.g. exhaust emissions in buildings) will be considered in separate standards
NOTE 2 The main electric power supply is subject to national regulations or codes
NOTE 3 Sudden loud noises may cause farm animals to become startled. It is advised to consider this with the design of the RFS.
Environmental aspects (except noise) have not been considered in this document.
