2 On safety
This chapter deals with your own safety and the safety of the equipment operators.
• Please read this chapter carefully before beginning with the installation.
2.1 Qualified safety personnel
The Motion controller may only be installed by qualified safety personnel.
Qualified safety personnel are defined as persons who …
• have undergone the appropriate technical training and
• have been instructed by the responsible machine operator in the operation of the machine
and the current valid safety guidelines and
• have access to the Motion controller manuals and have read and familiarized themselves
with them and
• have access to the manuals for the protective devices (e.g. light curtains) connected to the
Motion controller and have read and familiarized themselves with them.
2.2 Applications of the device
The Motion controller is a configurable controller for safety applications. It can be used
(Declaration of conformity No. BCN-B61008-076)
• in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1 : 2008 Category 3 PL d
• in accordance with EN 62061 SIL CL 2
The degree of safety actually attained depends on the external circuit, the realization of the
wiring, the parameter configuration, the choice of the pick-ups and their location at the
machine.
Opto-electronic and tactile safety sensors (e.g. light curtains, laser scanners, safety switches,
sensors, emergency-stop buttons) are connected to the Motion controller and are linked
logically. The corresponding actuators of the machines or systems can be switched off safely
via the switching outputs of the Motion controller.
2.3 Correct use
!
CAUTION
The Motion controller fulfills the requirements of industrial
applications in accordance with the "Interference emission" basic
specifications!
The Motion controller is therefore only suitable for use in an industrial
environment and not for private use.
The Motion controller may only be used within specific operating limits (voltage, temperature,
etc., refer to the technical data and to the section "Applications areas of the device"). It may
only be used by specialist personnel and only at the machine at which it was mounted and
initially commissioned by qualified personnel in accordance with the "Motion controller
Programming Manual (Safety Observation)" and " Motion controller User's Manual".
The modules of the Motion controller conform to Class A, Group 1, in accordance with
EN 61000-6-4. Group 1 encompasses all the ISM devices in which intentionally generated
and/or used conductor-bound RF energy that is required for the inner function of the device
itself occurs.
