The position of the safety mats depends on the use case. You can use safety mats as: • Combined trip and presence sensing devices. • Presence sensing systems within a perimeter guarded area. Rockwell Automation Publication 440F-UM003A-EN-P - January 2024...
IMPORTANT If the machine is designed in conformity with an existing harmonized European C type standard for that machine (which gives specific formulas or minimum distances), then these standards must be used in preference to the standards given in ISO 13855. Rockwell Automation Publication 440F-UM003A-EN-P - January 2024...
(63 in./s) as the approach speed. T is the overall stopping time in seconds. The added 1200 mm (47.24 in.) is parameter C given in ISO 13855 and accounts for stride length and arm reach. Rockwell Automation Publication 440F-UM003A-EN-P - January 2024...
Prevent access to the hazardous zone from positions that do not involve standing on the MatGuard safety mats. This restricted access requires additional angle plates and the careful position of pipework and trunking. Best practice is illustrated in Figure 15 on page Rockwell Automation Publication 440F-UM003A-EN-P - January 2024...
The vinyl outer surface of the safety mat is sealed to resist the ingress of liquids and rated to IP67. Safety mats resist bleaches, acids, salt, and most industrial chemicals. See Table 1 on page Rockwell Automation Publication 440F-UM003A-EN-P - January 2024...
If access to the MatGuard control unit is required for manual reset or routine indicator observation, it must be mounted at an accessible position outside the protection zone that provides a good view of the hazard and protection zone.
