2.5 SAFETY MEASURES
(1) When installing the robot, provide sufficient space to carry out the work safely.
(2) Clarify the hazard zone, and provide a safety fence so that other persons cannot enter the
zone easily. The hazard zone is the zone near the robot's working space where a
hazardous state could occur if a person enters.
(3) Provide a limit switch, photo switch or foot switch, etc., at the entrance of the safety fence
to provide an emergency stop function that will stop the robot if a person enters the hazard
zone. The emergency stop function should be an electrically independent b contact
(closed in normal operation) with compulsive opening function and must not be
automatically recovered.
(4) The controller must be installed at a place outside the hazard zone where the operator can
view the robot movement.
