If the robot is installed non-collaboratively (for example, when using the dangerous tool), the
risk assessment may infer that the integrator needs to connect to an additional safety device (for
example, a safety starting device) when programming, as to ensure personnel and equipment safety.
1.6 Intended Use
The ELITE collaborative robot should be used on general industrial equipment only, for
example, operate or fix the tool or the equipment, process or convey the parts and the products. The
ELITE robot must be used only under the specified condition. For specific information about the
relevant operating environment and operating conditions, please refer to the appendix.
The ELITE collaborative robot has the special safety level characteristics and may implement
the collaborative operation, namely, the ELITE collaborative robot may be used in absence of the
peripheral safety protective device, however, only in the case that no danger occurs in accordance
with the risk assessment. Namely, on the premise that no safety protective device and the on-site
sensor are used, anticipated or accidental contact between the staff and the ELITE collaborative
robot or its end effector or the part would not constitute the unacceptable risk, and the anticipated or
accidental contact with other objects (the tool, the equipment, the surface and so on) in the
workspace would not constitute the unacceptable risk as well.
The robot controller and the robot should be used on the general industrial equipment only and
cannot be applied to the application breaching the intended uses. The prohibited use includes, but are
not limited to, the following situations:
•
Used in flammable and explosive environment, and other dangerous environment.
•
Used on the device of moving or carrying human or other animals.
•
Used on the device, such as the medical device involving human life.
•
Used on the device which greatly influences the sociality and the publicity.
•
Used in the environment subjected to vibration, such as the vehicle and the ship.
•
Used as the climbing tool.
