Machine Guarding Protection

IMPROPER MACHINE GUARDING PROTECTION
• Refer to and comply with pr EN 999 and ANSI standards when calculating safety distances.
• Design a large enough sensing zone of safety mat(s) to ensure an operator cannot reach a
dangerous machine operation before it can be stopped.
• Ensure operator detection is effective for the entire sensing zone.
• When using FF-SM Series safety mats for point-of-operation guarding, DO NOT allow an
operator to stand undetected between the safety mat and dangerous machine operation.
• If safety mat location allows possible access to dangerous machine operation, install
additional protective safety equipment.
• To prevent safety mat removal and possible operator injury, secure the safety mat to the
ground using edge trim.
• Clearing the sensing zone must not start dangerous machine operation. When restarting
machine operation, a normal machine control start sequence must be used.
• Ensure the location of the manual restart function is outside of the danger zone and
provides the operator with a clear view of the zone.
• Ensure each safety mat activation immediately stops machine operation within the response
time of the components.
• Ensure the control unit status indicators operate properly and are visible from the dangerous
area.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
FF-SM Series safety mats are contact machine guarding devices designed to increase the
protection of operators of power driven machinery. The safety mat is designed for zone and
point-of-operation machine guarding protection of dangerous machine areas.
The FF-SM Series safety mat will generate a stop signal if the mat is actuated. Further
operation is prevented until the mat is clear. The FF-SM Series safety mat monitors itself
continuously for component failures.
FF-SM Series safety mat is designed so that a malfunction or an actuation of the mat will
cause the control unit to generate a stop signal. This stop signal is generated automatically if
a malfunction occurs in the mat or control unit. All other machine control components that
affect safety shall be designed to the same high level of safe operation.
