  • Page 30: Rapid Crosshead Motion

    Chapter: Risk reduction and safe use Rapid crosshead motion Warning Crush hazard to fingers or hands. This hazard relates to grips and fixtures coming together as a result of rapid crosshead motion, crushing hands or fingers. For example, an operator inadvertently commands the system to jog or return while their hands are in test area.
  • Page 31 Use a specimen insertion tool to keep fingers out of the space between the fixtures. • Use an interlocked shield to limit or disallow motion when the shield door is open. When the space is less than 25mm, the crush hazard is very significant, so this is the best option. Product Support: www.instron.com...
  • Page 32: Pinching Fingers Between Grip Jaw Faces

Recommendations For 2712 Series pneumatic grips: • In the documentation supplied with the grips, read and follow the safety recommendations for installing a specimen.
  • Page 33: Impact Of Debris From Breaking Specimens

    This hazard relates to brittle or composite specimens that can explode when they break. Recommendations For less dangerous debris (specimen dust or fibers, for example): • Use personal protection equipment (for example safety glasses). For more dangerous projectile debris (brittle composite specimens, for example): • Use an interlocked shield. Product Support: www.instron.com...

    An interlock is an optional accessory that changes the behavior of the system depending on whether the interlock circuit is open or closed. For example, the door on a protective shield may include an interlock. When the interlock circuit is open (e.g. the Product Support: www.instron.com...
  • Page 82: Testing With No Interlock

    Chapter: Testing specimens shield door is open), the circuit is interrupted and the system is either disabled or restricted as defined by the Operator Protection settings. Testing with no interlock This test scenario assumes the system has no accessories with an interlock and that the start test method in Operator Protection settings is set to Frame control (the default).
  • Page 83 11. Use the jog controls to move the crosshead to its starting position and set zero displacement. Refer to “Set the zero displacement point” on page 93. 12.

  • Page 85: Testing With An Interlock

    The high energies involved in testing can cause broken parts of a specimen to be projected forcefully some distance from the test area. Wear eye protection and use protective shields or screens whenever a risk of injury to operators and observers exists from the failure of a test specimen. Product Support: www.instron.com...
  • Page 86 Chapter: Testing specimens Select the correct test area for the test. An incorrectly set test area can cause unanticipated crosshead behavior. Press the Emergency Stop button if the frame moves in an unexpected direction. An incorrectly set test area can cause unanticipated crosshead behavior and create a safety hazard that may damage the specimen or load cell.
  • Page 87 21. After the test is complete, the system transitions to CAUTION mode. If the specimen did not break, use the jog controls to relieve the applied force from the specimen before opening the interlock to remove the specimen. Product Support: www.instron.com...
