11.1 Introduction to the Safety Functions
11.1.1 Safety Functions
Safety functions are built into the SERVOPACK to reduce the risks associated with using the
machine by protecting workers from the hazards of moving machine parts and otherwise
increasing the safety of machine operation.
Especially when working in hazardous areas inside guards, such as for machine maintenance,
the safety function can be used to avoid hazardous moving machine parts.
Refer to the following section for information on the safety function and safety parameters.
Compliance with UL Standards, EU Directives, and Other Safety Standards on page xxvi
11.1.2 Precautions for Safety Functions
Products that display the TÜV mark on the nameplate have met the safety standards.
Important
WARNING
 To confirm that the HWBB function satisfies the safety requirements of the system, you
must conduct a risk assessment of the system.
Incorrect use of the safety function may cause injury.
 The Servomotor will move if there is an external force (e.g., gravity on a vertical axis) even
when the HWBB function is operating. Use a separate means, such as a mechanical brake,
that satisfies the safety requirements.
Incorrect use of the safety function may cause injury.
 While the HWBB function is operating, the Servomotor may move within an electric angle of
180° or less as a result of a SERVOPACK failure. Use the HWBB function for an application
only after confirming that movement of the Servomotor will not result in a hazardous condi-
tion.
Incorrect use of the safety function may cause injury.
 The dynamic brake and the brake signal are not safety-related elements. You must design
the system so that SERVOPACK failures will not cause a hazardous condition while the
HWBB function is operating.
Incorrect use of the safety function may cause injury.
 Connect devices that satisfy the safety standards for the signals for safety functions.
Incorrect use of the safety function may cause injury.
 The HWBB function does not shut OFF the power to the SERVOPACK or electrically isolate
it. Implement measures to shut OFF the power supply to the SERVOPACK before you per-
form maintenance on it.
There is a risk of electric shock.
