presence of a person constitutes a risk to the health and safety of
that person.
EXPOSED PERSON
Any person that finds themselves fully or partially in a danger zone.
OPERATOR
The person(s) tasked with installing, operating, setting, cleaning,
repairing, moving or doing maintenance work on the machine.
RISK
A combination of the probability and gravity of an injury or damage
to one's health that may result in a dangerous situation.
GUARD
A part of the machine used specifically to ensure protection by
means of a material barrier.
PROTECTIVE DEVICE
A device (other than a guard) that reduces a risk on its own or in
association with a guard.
INTENDED USE
Use of the machine within the limits laid down by the Manufacturer,
for which the machine is designed and built, in conformity to the
information provided in the instructions for use.
REASONABLY FORESEEABLE
INCORRECT USE
Use of the machine in a way that differs from that indicated in the
instructions for use, but that may result from human behaviour that
can easily be foreseen.
OTHER DEFINITIONS
MAN-MACHINE INTERACTION: Any situation in which an operator interacts with the machine, in any
operating phase, and at any time in the life of the machine.
OPERATOR'S QUALIFICATION The minimum skill level the operator must have to carry out the
operation described.
NUMBER OF OPERATORS Number of operators able to carry out the operation described in the
best possible way, and resulting from careful analysis by the
manufacturer. Therefore, use by a number of different members of staff
could prevent the expected result being achieved or put the personnel
involved in danger.
MACHINE STATUS The machine's status includes its operating mode, such as automatic
operation, jog mode control, stopping, etc., the condition of the safety
devices in the machine, such as guards included, guards excluded,
emergency button pushed, type of isolation from energy sources, etc.
RESIDUAL RISK Risks that remain, despite integrated protective measures being
adopted that are integrated in the design of the machine, and despite
the additional protective devices and measures adopted.
SAFETY COMPONENT Component:
- Intended to provide a safety function.
- A component that, if damaged and/or tampered with, puts the safety
of the people involved in jeopardy (e.g. lifting equipment; fixed, mo-
bile or adjustable guard, etc.; electrical, electronic, optical, pneumatic
or hydraulic device that serves as, or interlocks a guard, etc.).
