Separation (safety) distance
- That distance, along the direction of approach, between the outermost position at which the appropriate test
piece is just detected and the nearest dangerous machine part(s). Also called
Separation Distance
.
Start/restart (interlock)
– When applied to the function of a safety or safeguarding device, this term refers to the ability of the device to prevent
or allow the machine operating cycle to begin or resume by normal actuating means after the cause of a stop has been removed.
NOTE: This function is also called “reset”.
NOTE: The reset (clearing of the Start/Restart interlock) of the device must not cause hazardous motion or a hazardous situation, but only
enable the normal start command.
Protective Field
- The Scanner effective Separation (safety) distance/Separation Distance that is required to stop the machine before a person
who enters the Protective Field reaches the machine and is specified in ISO 13855 and associated standards.
Response Time
- The time between the interruption by the System OSSDs and the instant when the dangerous parts of the machine reach a
safe state by being brought to rest.
Qualified Person
