2. Unusually high temperatures, including open flames, as well as emissions of light, noise, particles, gases, etc., can occur
inside and outside the components under fault conditions caused by, for example:
– Component failure
– Software errors
– Operation and/or environmental conditions outside the specification
– External influences/damage
3. Hazardous shock voltages caused by, for example:
– Component failure
– Influence during electrostatic charging
– Induction of voltages in moving motors
– Operation and/or environmental conditions outside the specification
– Condensation/conductive contamination
– External influences/damage
4. Electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated in operation that can pose a risk to people with a pacemaker,
implants or metal replacement joints, etc., if they are too close
5. Release of environmental pollutants or emissions as a result of improper operation of the system and/or failure to
dispose of components safely and correctly
6. Influence of network-connected communication systems, e.g. ripple-control transmitters or data communication via the
network
For more information about the residual risks of the drive system components, see the relevant sections in the technical user
documentation.
Anywhere in the automation equipment where faults might cause physical injury or major material damage, in other words,
where faults could be dangerous, additional external precautions must be taken, or facilities must be provided, that
guarantee or enforce a safe operational state, even when there is a fault (e.g. using an independent limit value switch,
mechanical locking mechanisms, EMERGENCY STOP/EMERGENCY OFF devices).
