2.7 Integrator responsibilities
The system integrator must comply with the following requirements:
Integrate the product according to the information in these
installation instructions and further relevant documentation
(see Further documentation on page 6).
Make sure that the national standards and regulations are complied with during
the installation of the product.
Perform a risk assessment according to EN ISO 12100 as amended for each
application in which the product is used. The product itself is a partly completed
machine, since the safety of the installation depends on the way the product is
integrated.
Design the application according to DIN EN 60204-1 and test the design.
Use safety functions and protective equipment.
If additional components (e.g. cables) not included in the scope of delivery of the
APAS assistant are integrated into it, they must not impair or disable any existing
safety functions.
Integrate the APAS assistant into the safety system of the overall system.
If the Ethernet safety interface is used, make sure that the overall system does
not pose any danger in an emergency. Shutting down the robot controller via the
Ethernet safety interface does not trigger an EMERGENCY STOP on the overall
system.
Prepare an EC declaration of conformity according to the Machinery Directive
for the overall system. The EC declaration of conformity is the basis for the
CE marking of the system.
Compile the technical documentation (operating and maintenance instructions,
vendor documentation, etc.) for the owner and their personnel.
Inform the owner about tasks they must perform according to these
installation instructions (e.g. definition of any maintenance cycles not yet defined).
Attach the CE mark in a visible location on the system.
Instruct the personnel on any existing residual risks.
2.8 Owner responsibilities
The owner must comply with and implement the following regulations:
• Ensuring proper use of the APAS assistant.
• Preparation of a hazard assessment for the workstation.
• Inspection of the protective equipment before starting work. The APAS
assistant must not be operated with deactivated or removed safety functions or
safety equipment.
•
If the APAS assistant and the overall system share an EMERGENCY STOP circuit
and operating the overall system is possible even when the robot controller is
switched off, the smartPAD must either be covered or removed from the overall
system. This serves to prevent hazards resulting from a confusion of effective and
ineffective EMERGENCY STOP devices. Disconnected smartPADs must be removed
from the area around the overall system immediately.
• Enabling switches must not be permanently actuated with adhesive tape or other
tools or manipulated in any way.
• Instruction of the personnel at regular intervals.
•
Monitoring duty and ensuring that there is sufficient space for the personnel to
move.
• Contacting the manufacturer in case of product safety defects.
• Checking that the personnel wears the personal protective equipment according to
the information in the installation and application instructions.
• Ensuring that any pinching and shear points which are not addressed in the
application-specific risk assessment are prevented.
