1.2 General safety information

1.2.1 Safety in the robot system
Validity and responsibility
The information does not cover how to design, install and operate a complete
system, nor does it cover all peripheral equipment, which can influence the safety
of the total system. To protect personnel, the complete system must be designed
and installed in accordance with the safety requirements set forth in the standards
and regulations of the country where the robot is installed.
The users of ABB industrial robots are responsible for ensuring that the applicable
safety laws and regulations in the country concerned are observed and that the
safety devices necessary to protect people working with the robot system are
designed and installed correctly. Personnel working with robots must be familiar
with the operation and handling of the industrial robot, described in the applicable
documents, e.g. User's Guide and Product Manual.
Connection of external safety devices
Apart from the built-in safety functions, the robot is also supplied with an interface
for the connection of external safety devices. Via this interface, an external safety
function can interact with other machines and peripheral equipment. This means
that control signals can act on safety signals received from the peripheral equipment
as well as from the robot.
Limitation of liability
Any information given in this manual regarding safety, must not be construed as
a warranty by ABB that the industrial robot will not cause injury or damage even
if all safety instructions are complied with.
