l
Use only isolated tools in the corresponding voltage level.
l
Use only fuses with specified cut-off current and appropriate dielectric strength.
CAUTION
Follow the 5 electrical engineering safety rules when working on electrical equipment:
1. Disconnect completely.
2. Secure against reconnection.
3. Make sure there is no voltage.
4. Perform grounding and short-circuiting.
5. Provide protection against adjacent live parts.
Robot Risks
WARNING
l
All personnel working with and around the robot must be informed of the inherent risks and safety
instructions.
l
To avoid being pinched or crushed when the robot moves toward a stationary object, always keep
a minimum distance of 500 mm.
l
To avoid being pinched or crushed when the robot moves toward the floor, always keep a
minimum distance of 300 mm.
l
To avoid being pinched or crushed between the robot (gripper or linear axis) and walls or
peripherals, always keep a minimum distance of 500 mm.
l
Those values aforementioned are taken from standard EN 13854:2019 (Minimum gaps to avoid
crushing of parts of the human body). The installation must maintain the minimum distances
specified in this standard.
For more information, refer to the robot's instruction manual.
l
Robots move quickly and exert high force. A program interruption or stop can be followed by rapid and dangerous movements.
l
Even a programmed robot can be affected by external signals and make unexpected movements. Therefore, when entering the
work area, all safety instructions must be observed.
l
Robot teaching, robot programming and software modification may only be performed by competent and authorized personnel.
l
Changes to the robot's safety settings may only be made by competent and authorized personnel. The changes must be verified
and documented.
l
Reducing the speed and acceleration of the robot reduces the risks as it:
o
Gives the operator more time to react appropriately.
o
Reduces the robot's braking time.
