MM-TA-12B Muting Module
Instruction Manual
6.4 Semi-Annual Checkout
Perform this checkout procedure every six months following System installation.
A Qualified Person (as defined in Section 1.18) must perform the procedure;
checkout results should be recorded and kept on or near the guarded machine,
per OSHA 1910.217(e)(1).
1)
Perform the commissioning checkout procedure (Section 6.2) If any
decrease in machine braking ability has occurred, make the necessary
clutch/brake repairs, readjust safeguard separation distance (Ds) appropri-
ately, record the new Ds calculation, and re-perform the Daily Checkout pro-
cedure.
2)
Examine and test the machine primary control elements (MPCEs) and any
intermediary controls (such as interface modules) to verify that they are
functioning correctly and are not in need of maintenance or replacement.
3)
Inspect the guarded machine to verify that no other mechanical or structural
problems could prevent the machine from stopping or assuming an other-
wise safe condition when signalled to do so by the MM-TA-12B system.
4)
Examine and inspect the machine controls and connections to the MM-TA-
12B system to verify that no modifications have been made which adversely
affect the System.
If any of these checks fail, do not attempt to use the system until the reason
for the failure(s) is identified and corrected.
