Safety Relay

2. General safety regulations and protective measures

• Manufacturers and users of the plant / machinery, for which the protective device is used, are them-
selves responsible for coordinating and observing all the relevant safety instructions and regulations.
• The protective device ensures operational safety in combination with the overriding controls, but not
the safety of the entire plant / machinery. Before using the device a safety assessment of the entire
plant / machinery in terms of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC or of the relevant product standard
is required.
• The operating instructions must always be available at the location where the protective device is used.
They must be read and applied thoroughly by everyone tasked with the operation, servicing and main-
tenance of the protective device.
• Installation and commissioning of the protective device may only be carried out by qualified staff, who
are acquainted with these operating instructions and the relevant instructions on occupational safety
and accident prevention. The directions contained in these operating instructions must be observed
and adhered to without fail.
• The electrical engineering and professional society safety rules are to be observed .
• When working on the relay, it must be disconnected from the power supply, tested for zero potential
and secured against reconnection.
• If the zero potential contacts of the safety relay contacts are supplied by an external hazardous voltage,
this must also be switched off during work to the relay.
• The relay contains no components for servicing by the user. Unauthorised modifications and/or repairs
to the relay will result in the cancellation of all guarantee or liability on the part of the manufacturer.
• The protective system must be tested at appropriate intervals by experts and must be documented in a
comprehensible way at all times.
Safety instructions
• The relay allows operation from 24 V AC/DC. Connecting the operating voltage to the wrong terminals
may damage the relay .
• The relay must be installed in a control box.
• Do not install in the immediate vicinity of an intense heat source .
• An adequate protective circuit must be provided with capacitive and inductive users.
For the standardised design of the safety system, the equipment must be tested for correct
operation by experts at appropriate intervals. The testing must be comprehensibly documented
at all times.
In the event of non-compliance or deliberate misuse, the manufacturer's liability lapses.
