9.5.1
Equipment regulations
In addition to the requirements of the guidelines and standards, company-specific
requirements must be taken into account. Large corporations in particular (e.g. automobile
manufacturers) make stringent demands regarding automation components, which are often
listed in their own equipment specifications.
Safety-related issues (e.g. operating modes, operator actions with access to hazardous areas,
EMERGENCY STOP concepts, etc.) should be clarified with customers early on so that they
can be integrated in the risk assessment/risk reduction process.
