Protection against dangerous movements
Unexpected movements
Residual energy in the system may cause serious injuries while
working with the product.
• Switch off the energy supply, ensure that no residual energy
remains and secure against inadvertent reactivation.
• Never rely solely on the response of the monitoring function to
avert danger. Until the installed monitors become effective, it
must be assumed that the drive movement is faulty, with its ac-
tion being dependent on the control unit and the current oper-
ating condition of the drive. Perform maintenance work, modi-
fications, and attachments outside the danger zone defined by
the movement range.
• To avoid accidents and/or material damage, human access
to the movement range of the machine must be restricted.
Restrict unintentional access by persons to this range e.g. via a
protective cover, protective fence or photoelectric barrier. The
protective cover and protective fence must be rigid enough to
withstand the maximum possible movement energy. EMER-
GENCY STOP switches must be easily and quickly accessible.
Check the function of the EMREGENCY STOP before starting up
the machine or system. If this protective equipment is not
working properly, prevent the operation of the machine.
