2.3 Intended use
The safety measuring system can be used for the detection of angular movement
and processing of measured data for a downstream safety computer system in
systems in which the
protection goals
of
"Protection of speed"
and
"Protection
of direction of movement"
must be safely achieved. The complete processing
chain of the safety function must then satisfy the requirements of the applied safety
standard.
The safety measuring system may only be used in safety applications in conjunction
with a control certified according to the applied safety standard.
The system manufacturer must check that the characteristics of the measuring system
satisfy his application-specific safety requirements. The responsibility or decision
regarding the use of the measuring system lies with the system manufacturer.
Intended use also includes:
● observing all instructions in this User Manual,
● observing the nameplate and any prohibition or instruction symbols on the
measuring system,
● observing the enclosed documentation, e.g. product insert, pin assignment etc.
● observing the operating instructions from the machine/system manufacturer,
● operating the measuring system within the limit values specified in the technical
data,
● ensuring that the fail-safe processing unit fulfills all required safety functions,
● observing and using the checklist in the appendix,
● safe mounting (form closure) of the measuring system to the driving axis, also see
chapter "Mounting" from page 23
