Israel and PSNet,
Since you've asked about pneumatic controls, you are apparently
dealing with a machine - which would invoke the Machinery Directive.
The risk assessment which you will do (from EN 292) would flag your
assessment of the risks associated with the pneumatic system. Cl 1.5.3 of
the MD Annex I specifically enquires about Energy Supply other than
Electricity, which would also flag the issues here. A review of the CEN
catalog (using the handy, dandy KWIC index) would point you to a standard
such as EN 983, Pneumatics which you would use to evaluate compliance with
the requirements therein.
I hope that this helps.
