2.6 Safety concept
The safety concept is based on the prevention of sparks and excessive temperatures by
means of various accessories.
The monitoring devices must be integrated into the system control such that operation
of the machine will be inhibited if the safety limit values are exceeded.
The limit values of each accessory are defined in the wiring diagram chapters, see
trical Connection of the Monitoring Devices [
.
To have more details about the monitoring procedure, see
