Funconal safety
General informaon and basics
The funconal safety describes the necessary measures that need to be taken by means of
electrical or electronic equipment to prevent or eliminate dangers due to funconal errors.
Protecve devices prevent any human access to dangerous areas during normal operaon.
However, persons may have to be in the danger areas in certain operang modes. The
machine operator is protected by internal drive and control measures in these operang
modes
Integrated safety
The integrated safety technology fulls the control and drive condions for implemenng the
protecve funcons. The expenses for planning and installaon decrease. The machine func-
onality and availability increases thanks to the use of integrated safety technology. The inte-
grated safety technology is applicable for protecng personnel working with machines in
accordance with the Machinery Direcve.
The moon funcons connue to be executed by the inverter. The integrated safety system
monitors the safe compliance with the limit values and provides the safe inputs. If monitored
limit values are exceeded, the integrated safety system iniates control funcons in the inver-
ter to counteract possible errors according to EN 61800−5−2.
