2.2.3 USER ROLES
To guarantee safety, we place requirements on the users of the equipment that must be
met without fail. Only persons meeting the requirements are authorised to work with the
equipment.
We describe all those who work with the equipment as users. Since the requirements of
these users are very much dependent on their activity, we distinguish the following user
roles.
Contract partner:
The manufacturer can impose legal obligations on the contract partner when the
equipment is purchased. The contract partner is obliged to ensure that the equipment is
properly used.
Operating company:
The operating company ensures that the equipment is properly used and authorises
persons who are entitled to work with the equipment in any one of the defined user roles.
They are under the obligation to instruct the users.
Note:
Contract partner and operating company can be the same person.
Service technician:
The service technician is an employee of the operating company and looks after the
equipment in special operating mode(s). He is a specialist with mechanical, electrical and
electronic professional training. The service technician undertakes commissioning,
decommissioning service and repair of the equipment. He must be appropriately trained to
be able to carry out the service work required.
Operator:
The operator turns the equipment on and off. In the event of an alarm signal he informs the
service technician.
