7.2 Commissioning Checkout
WARNING: Do Not Use Machine
Until
System Is Working Properly
If all of these checks cannot be
verified,
do not
attempt
to use the safety system that includes the Banner device
and the guarded machine
until
the defect or problem has been corrected.
Attempts
to use the guarded machine
under such
conditions
may result in serious bodily injury or death.
Perform this checkout procedure as part of the System
installation
after
the System has been interfaced to the guarded machine, or
whenever changes are made to the System (either a new
configuration
of the EZ-SCREEN Type 2 or changes to the machine). A
Qualified
Person must perform the procedure. Checkout results should be recorded and kept on or near the guarded machine as required by
applicable standards.
To prepare the System for this checkout:
1. Examine the guarded machine to verify that it is of a type and design
compatible
with the EZ-SCREEN Type 2 System. See
on page 8 for a list of
misapplications.
2. Verify that the EZ-SCREEN Type 2 is
configured
for the intended
application.
3. Verify that the safety distance (minimum distance) from the closest danger point of the guarded machine to the
defined
area is
not less than the calculated distance, per
the Safety Distance (Minimum Distance)
4. Verify that:
• Access to any dangerous parts of the guarded machine is not possible from any
direction
not protected by the EZ-
SCREEN Type 2 System, hard
(fixed)
guarding, or supplemental safeguarding, and
• It is not possible for a person to stand between the
defined
area and the dangerous parts of the machine, or
• Supplemental safeguarding and hard
(fixed)
guarding, as described by the appropriate safety standards, are in place
and
functioning
properly in any space (between the
defined
area and any hazard) which is large enough to allow a
person to stand undetected by the EZ-SCREEN Type 2.
5. If used, verify that all reset switches are mounted outside and in full view of the guarded area, out of reach of anyone inside the
guarded area, and that means of
preventing
inadvertent use is in place.
6. Examine the electrical wiring
connections
between the EZ-SCREEN Type 2 OSSD outputs and the guarded machine’s control
elements to verify that the wiring meets the requirements stated in
on page 29.
