2.4.5 Protection against dangerous movements
Dangerous movements can be caused by faulty control of connected motors, for different reasons:
Improper or faulty wiring or cabling
Error in handling of components
Error in sensor or transducer
Defective or non-EMC-compliant components
Software error in superordinated control system
These errors can occur directly after switching on the device or after an indeterminate time of
operation.
The monitors in the drive components for the most part rule out malfunctions in the connected drives.
In view of personal protection, particularly the danger of personal injury and/or property damage, this
may not be relied on exclusively.
Until the built-in monitors come into effect, faulty drive movements must be taken into account; their
magnitude depends on the type of control and on the operating state.
DANGER!
Dangerous movements!
Danger to life, risk of injury, serious personal injuries or property damage!
For the reasons mentioned above, personal protection must be ensured by means of monitoring or
superordinated measures on the device. These are installed in accordance with the specific data of
the system and a danger and error analysis by the manufacturer. The safety regulations applying to
the system are also taken into consideration. Random movements or other malfunctions may be
caused by switching the safety installations off, by bypassing them or by not activating them.
