l
Provide a proper control system, program logic and error checking to ensure the safety
of all personnel and equipment (for example, to prevent a run-away condition). The con-
trol system must be designed so that it does not automatically restart the machine/sys-
tem after a power failure.
l
Prevent unauthorized access or changes to the control system or software.
Documentation and Training
It is the responsibility of the machine/system designer to provide documentation on safety,
operation, maintenance and programming, along with training for all machine operators, main-
tenance technicians, programmers, and other personnel who may have access to the
machine. This documentation must include proper lockout/tagout procedures for maintenance
and programming operations.
It is the responsibility of the operating company to ensure that:
l
All operators, maintenance technicians, programmers and other personnel are tested
and qualified before acquiring access to the machine or system.
l
The above personnel perform their assigned functions in a responsible and safe manner
to comply with the procedures in the supplied documentation and the company safety
practices.
l
The equipment is maintained as described in the documentation and training supplied by
the machine/system designer.
Additional Equipment and Considerations
The Risk Assessment and the operating company's standard safety policies will dictate the
need for additional equipment. In general, it is the responsibility of the operating company to
ensure that:
l
Unauthorized access to the machine is prevented at all times.
l
The personnel are supplied with the proper equipment for the environment and their job
functions, which may include: safety glasses, hearing protection, safety footwear,
smocks or aprons, gloves, hard hats and other protective gear.
l
The work area is equipped with proper safety equipment such as first aid equipment,
fire suppression equipment, emergency eye wash and full-body wash stations, etc.
l
There are no modifications made to the machine or system without proper engineering
evaluation for design, safety, reliability, etc., and a Risk Assessment.
