SIMODRIVE 611 Configuration Manual (PJU) – 02/2012 Edition
When carrying out a risk assessment of the machine in accordance with the EU
Machinery Directive, the machine manufacturer must consider the following
residual risks associated with the control and drive components of a power drive
system (PDS).
1. Unintentional movements of driven machine components during commis-
sioning, operation, maintenance, and repairs caused by, for example:
–
Hardware defects and/or software errors in the sensors, controllers,
actuators, and connection technology
–
Response times of the controller and drive
–
Operation outside the specification
–
Errors when parameterizing, programming and wiring
–
Use of radio devices/cellular phones in the immediate vicinity of the
controller
–
External effects
2. Exceptional temperatures as well as emissions of light, noise, particles, or
gas caused by, for example:
–
Component malfunctions
–
Software errors
–
Operation outside the specification
–
External effects
3. Hazardous shock voltages caused by, for example:
–
Component malfunctions
–
Static charges
–
Operation outside the specification
–
Condensation/conductive contamination
–
External effects
4. Electrical, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields that can pose a risk to
people with a pacemaker and/or implants if they are too close.
5. Emission of pollutants if components or packaging are not disposed of
properly.
An assessment of the residual risks (see points 1 to 5 above) established that
these risks do not exceed the specified limit values (risk priority number in
accordance with EN 60812 RPZ = 100).
For additional information, refer to the relevant sections of the Configuration
Manual.
At the present time, other known residual risks are:
S
Acceleration of the spindle or axes due to:
–
Encoder errors, e.g. errors in the absolute measuring system (CD track),
loose contacts in encoder cables or unsuitable encoders.
–
Cyclically interchanged phases of the motor connections
(V–W–U instead of U–V–W).
–
Interchanged control sense.
–
Electric faults (defective components, etc.).
–
Operation of a demagnetized synchronous motor with saturation–based
pole position identification.
–
Transfer of an incorrect, but plausible actual value in absolute measuring
systems (encoder does not signal an error).
