15) The automated system is supplied with an intrinsic anti-crushing safety

device consisting of a torque control. Nevertheless, its tripping threshold
must be checked as specified in the Standards indicated at point 10.

16) The safety devices (EN 12978 standard)  protect any danger areas

against 

mechanical movement Risks

, such as crushing, dragging,

and shearing.

17) Use of at least one indicator-light (e.g. FAACLIGHT 12VDC) is

recommended for every system, as well as a warning sign adequately
secured to the frame structure, in addition to the devices mentioned
at point “16”.

18) FAAC declines all liability as concerns safety and efficient operation

of the automated system, if system components not produced by
