Safety
Before using the Safety Interface Device, a risk evalua-
tion must be performed according to valid standards (e.g.
ISO 14121, EN ISO 12100-1, ISO 13849-1, IEC 61508,
EN 62061). The result of the risk assessment determines
the required safety level of the Safety Interface Device
(see table in chapter 2.1.1). For mounting, operating and
testing, document "MSI-s/R Modular Safety Interface
Device" as well as all applicable national and internatio-
nal standards, regulations, rules and directives must be
observed. Relevant and supplied documents must be
observed, printed out and handed to the affected person-
nel.
Before working with the Safety Interface Device, comple-
tely read and understand the documents applicable to
your task.
In particular, the following national and international legal
regulations apply for the start-up, technical inspections
and work with safety sensors:
• Machinery directive 2006/42/EC
• Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC
• Electromagnetic compatibility directive 2004/108/EC
• Use of Work Equipment Directive 89/655/EEC supple-
mented by Directive 95/63 EC
• OSHA 1910 Subpart 0
• Safety regulations
• Accident-prevention regulations and safety rules
• Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health and Labor
Protection Act
• Device Safety Act
For safety-related information you may also contact the
local authorities (e.g., industrial inspectorate, employer's
liability insurance association, labor inspectorate, oc-
