Omron DeviceNet Safety NE1A-HDY01 Operation Manual page 16

General Precautions
• Typical related international standards: ISO 12100, Safety of Machin-
ery -- Basic Concepts and General Principles for Design
IEC 61508, Safety Standard for Safety Instrumented Systems (Func-
tional Safety of Electrical/Electronic/Programmable Electronic Safety-
related Systems)
• Role of Safety Device
The safety devices are provided with safety functions and mechanisms as
stipulated in relevant standards, but suitable designs must be used to allow
these functions and mechanisms to operate properly inside system con-
structions containing safety-related components. Build systems that en-
able these functions and mechanisms to perform properly, based on a full
understanding of their operation.
• Typical related international standards: ISO 14119, Safety of Machin-
ery -- Interlocking Devices Associated with Guards -- Principles of De-
sign and Selection
• Installation of Safety Device
The construction and installation of systems with safety-related compo-
nents for equipment or facilities must be performed by technicians who
have received suitable training.
• Typical related international standards: ISO 12100, Safety of Machin-
ery -- Basic Concepts and General Principles for Design
• Complying with Laws and Regulations
The safety devices conform to the relevant regulations and standards, but
make sure that they are used in compliance with local regulations and
standards for the equipment or facilities in which they are applied.
• Typical related international standards: IEC 60204, Safety of Machin-
ery -- Electrical Equipment of Machines
• Observing Precautions for Use
When putting the selected safety devices to actual use, heed the specifi-
cations and precautions in this Manual and those in the Operation Manuals
that comes with the products. Using the products in a manner that deviates
from these specifications and precautions will lead to unexpected failures
in equipment or devices, and to damages that result from such failures,
due to insufficient operating functions in safety-related components.
• Moving or Transferring Devices or Equipment
When moving or transferring devices or equipment, be sure to include this
Manual to ensure that the person to whom the device or equipment is be-
ing moved or transferred will be able to operate the system properly.
