Introduction
The requirement for safe operation is that the safety sub-functions of the device are properly integrated into an application-specific, higher-level safety sub-function. A system/machine-specific risk assessment must be carried out without fail by the system/machine manufacturer and taken into account for the use of the drive system with the device.
The system/machine manufacturer and the user are responsible for the compliance of the system/machine with the applicable safety regulations.
The following requirements are mandatory when installing and operating the device in safety-related applications:
- Use of the approved devices
- Installation requirements
- Requirements for external safety controllers and safety relays
- Startup requirements
- Requirements for operation
