WARNING
Hazards at an unprotected machine or plant
According to the results of a risk analysis, hazards can occur at an unprotected machine.
The hazards may lead to personal injury.
According to the risk analysis, the risk of injury to persons can be countered with the
following measures:
• Additional protective equipment at the machine or plant. In this case, the programming,
parameter assignment and wiring of the I/O used, in particular, must be performed in
accordance with the safety criteria (SIL, PL or Cat.) ascertained by means of an
appropriate risk analysis.
• Use of the device for its intended purpose, which can be established by performing a
functional test on the plant. This allows errors in programming, parameter assignment
and wiring to be detected.
• Documentation of the test results which can be entered, if required, into the relevant
safety certificates.
