Additional safety information and residual risks not specified in this section are included in the
relevant sections of this Function Manual.
Risk minimization through Safety Integrated
Safety Integrated can be used to minimize the level of risk associated with machines and
plants.
However, safe operation of a system or machine based on Safety Integrated is only possible
if the following preconditions are fully satisfied:
● The machine builder (OEM) precisely knows and observes this technical user
● The machine builder (OEM) carefully and professionally designs, constructs and
● The machine builder (OEM) implements and validates all the measures required in
The use of Safety Integrated does not replace the machine/plant risk assessment carried out
by the machine manufacturer as required by the EC machinery directive.
In addition to using Safety Integrated functions, further risk reduction measures must be
implemented.
Danger to life as a result of inactive Safety Integrated functions while powering up
The Safety Integrated functions are only activated after the system has completely powered
up. System startup is a critical operating state with increased risk. When accidents occur, this
can result in death or severe injury.
● Stay completely away from any hazardous areas while the system powers up.
● For vertical axes, check that the drives are in a no-torque state.
Regulations from EN 60204-1
The Emergency Stop function must bring the machine to a standstill according to stop
category 0 or 1 (STO or SS1).
The machine must not restart automatically after EMERGENCY STOP.
When individual safety functions (Extended Functions) are deactivated, an automatic restart
is permitted under certain circumstances depending on the risk analysis (except when
Emergency Stop is reset). An automatic start is permitted when a protective door is closed,
for example.
