10.7.10 Machinery Directive
Overvie
w
The basic safety and health requirements specied in Annex I of the Directive must be fullled
for the safety of machines.
Description of function
The protective goals must be implemented responsibly to ensure compliance with the Directive.
Manufacturers of a machine must verify that their machine complies with the basic
requirements. This verication is facilitated by means of harmonized standards.
IEC61800‑5‑2 Adjustable-speed electrical power drive systems Part 5-2 is relevant for the
Machinery Directive: Safety requirements - Functional safety
Within the context of IEC61508, IEC61800‑5‑2 considers adjustable speed electric power
drive systems (PDS), which are suitable for use in safety-related applications (PDS(SR)).
IEC61800‑5‑2 places requirements on PDS(SR) as subsystems of a safety-related system. This
therefore permits the implementation of the electrical/electronic/programmable electronic
elements of a PDS(SR) taking into account the safety-relevant performance of the safety
function(s) of a PDS.
Manufacturers and suppliers of PDS(SR) can prove to users (e.g. integrators of control
systems, developers of machines and plants etc.) the safety-relevant performance of their
equipment by implementing the specications stipulated in standard IEC61800‑5‑2.
