2.6 Risk assessment
You must make a risk assessment to achieve a safe installation. The risk assessment is the
responsibility of the commissioner who must ensure that MiR500 is commissioned safely in
the environment it will be used in.
The risk assessment must cover not only MiR500 itself, but also take into account potential
load transfer stations, work cells, and the work environment. MiR does not take any
responsibility for the creation of the risk assessment, but we provide information and
guidelines that may be used in the MiR 500 and MiR1000 Risk Analysis Guide found on the
Distributor Site under Manuals.
It is recommended that the commissioner follows the guidelines in ISO 12100, EN 1525, ANSI
B56.5, or other relevant standards to conduct the risk assessment.
In EN 1525, clause 4, there is a list of significant hazards, hazardous situations, and events
that can be used for inspiration.
2.7 Residual risks
Mobile Industrial Robots has identified the following potential hazards that commissioners
must inform personnel about and take all precautions to avoid:
• You risk being run over, drawn in, trapped, or impacted if you stand in the path of MiR500

when parking or picking up a cart or undocking from a marker such as MiR Charge48V.
• You risk being run over, drawn in, trapped, or impacted if you stand in the path of MiR500
or walk towards MiR500 while it is in motion.
