On safety
2.6 Applicable directives and standards
T
he most important directives and standards, valid for the use of opto-electronic protective
devices in Europe, are listed below. Further regulations may be of importance to you,
depending on the application. You can obtain further information of machine-specific
s
tandards from national institutions (e.g. DIN, BSI, AFNOR etc.), the authorities or your
trade association.
If you operate the machine or vehicle in a country outside the European Union, please
contact the manufacturer of the system and the local authorities and obtain information
on the regulations and standards applicable there.
Application and installation of protective devices
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, e.g.:
 Safety of machinery — Basic concepts, general principles for design (EN ISO 12100)
 Industrial automation systems — Safety of integrated manufacturing systems — Basic
requirements (ISO 11161)
 Safety of machinery — Electrical equipment of machines — Part 1: General requirements
(EN 60204-1)
 Safety of machinery — safety distances to prevent hazard zones being reached by the
upper and lower limbs (EN ISO 13857)
 Safety requirements for robots (EN ISO 10218<1)
 Safety of industrial trucks. Driverless trucks and their systems (EN 1525)
 Safety of machinery — The positioning of protective equipment in respect of approach
speeds of parts of the human body (EN ISO 13 855)
 Safety of machinery — Principles for risk assessment (EN ISO 14121-1)
 Safety of machinery — Safety-related parts of control systems — Part 1: General
principles for design (EN ISO 13849-1) as well as Part 2: Validation (EN ISO 13849-2)
 Safety of machines — electro-sensitive protective equipment — Part 1: General
requirements (EN 61496-1) as well as Part 3: Special requirements for AOPDDR
(CLC/TS 61496-3)
 Safety of machinery — Application of protective equipment to detect the presence of
persons (IEC/TS 62046)
Foreign standards, for example:
 Performance Criteria for Safeguarding (ANSI B11.19)
 Machine tools for manufacturing systems/cells (ANSI B11.20)
 Safety requirements for Industrial Robots and Robot Systems (ANSI/RIA R15.06)
 Safety Standard for guided industrial vehicles and automated functions of named
industrial vehicles (ANSI B56.5)
To some extent these standards require the protective device to have the safety level
“Control reliable”. The S3000 safety laser scanner meets this requirement.
Please request our competence brochure “Guidelines Safe Machinery” on this subject.
