5.2.2 Position of controls
The electrical control actuator for starting, normal stopping, emergency stop and powered table adjustment (if
fitted) shall be located at least 600 mm from the floor and at the infeed side.
An additional emergency stop actuator, if required in accordance to 5.2.5, shall be located at least 600 mm
from the floor and at the outfeed side.
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings, measurement and inspection of the machine.
5.2.3 Starting
Before starting or restarting the machine all the safeguards shall be in place and functional. This is achieved
by the interlocking arrangement described in 5.3.7. Start or restart shall only be possible by actuation of the
start control device provided for that purpose.
For electrically operated machines the requirements of 9.2.5.2 of EN 60204-1:2006 shall apply and in addition:
a) for the purpose of this document "operation" means rotation of the cutterblock and/or the integrated feed
and/or powered adjustment;
b) #start of the feed motor shall be possible only where the cutterblock drive motor is running e.g. by using
a time delay conforming to PL=b in accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1:2008. For a
machine with one motor only the start of the feed shall be possible only if the cutterblock drive is
running;$
c) design of the control #systems$ shall be such as to satisfy the starting sequence requirements. If a
time delay device is used the time delay shall be at least equal to the run-up time. The time delay shall be
fixed or the time delay device adjustment shall be sealed.
#When adjustment of the table is powered, the control shall be via a hold to run control or a preset
electronic control.
For machines with table adjustment via a preset electronic control:
− adjustment for the table shall be initiated by a start command (e.g. push button) the control
system of which conforms to at least PL=c in accordance with the requirements of
EN ISO 13849-1:2008;
− at the end of programmed adjustment the power shall be cut to the actuator in at least PL=b. A
new initiation shall be necessary to perform additional adjustment.
The safety related part of the control systems (also see 5.2.1) for start and restart of the machine and for the
interlocking between the cutterblock drive motor and the feed motor shall be at least PL=c in accordance with
the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1:2008.
The safety related part of the control system (also see 5.2.1) for hold-to-run control shall be PL=c in
accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1:2008.$
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or circuit diagrams, inspection of the machine and relevant
functional testing of the machine.
5.2.4 Normal stopping
The machine shall be fitted with a stop control system, where by the machine can be brought safely to a
complete stop. The stopping action shall include disconnection from energy supply of all machine actuators
and actuate the brake (if fitted see 5.3.4).
#For normal stopping of PDS(SR) (power drive system, safety related) see 4.2.2.2 "safe torque off (STO)”
and 4.2.2.3 “safe stop 1 (SS1)” of EN 61800-5-2:2007.$
The normal stop control system shall be of:
a) category 1 in accordance with the requirements in 9.2.2 of EN 60204-1:2006 where the machine is fitted
with an electric brake, or
b) category 0 in accordance with the requirements in 9.2.2 of EN 60204-1:2006 where the machine is fitted
#with a spring operated mechanical brake$ or the brake is not fitted;
For a category 1 normal stop control system, the stopping sequence shall be:
1) cut at the same time power to integrated feed if driven by a separate motor and to the cutterblock
motor and to the table adjustment if under preset electronic control; and apply the brake;
2) cut power to the brake after the #cutterblock$ has come to rest e.g. by a time delay of fail safe
technique e.g. of capacity type conforming to #at least PL=c in accordance with the requirements
of EN ISO 13849-1:2008$.
The design of the control #systems$ shall be such as to satisfy the normal stopping sequence
requirements. If a time delay device is used the time delay shall be at least equal to the braking time. The time
delay shall be fixed or the time delay adjustment device shall be sealed.
#The safety related part of the control systems (also see 5.2.1) for normal stopping shall be at least PL=c in
accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1:2008.$
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or circuits diagrams, inspection of the machine and
relevant functional testing of the machine.
5.2.5 Emergency stop
An emergency stop device shall be provided and be accessible from the operator's position at the infeed side
of the machine. #As an exception an emergency stop is not required for machines with only one motor and
where the normal stop control is not shrouded and is easily accessible from the operator's positions.$
#For emergency stop of PDS(SR) see 4.2.2.2 "safe torque off (STO)” and 4.2.2.3 “safe stop 1 (SS1)” of
EN 61800-5-2:2007.$
For machines with separate feed motors and/or a working width greater than 500 mm and /or with preset
electronic control for adjusting the height of the thicknessing table, a second emergency stop device
accessible at the outfeed shall be provided.
#If the machine is fitted with a spring operated mechanical brake$ without integrated feed driven by a
separate motor and/or without guard locking the emergency stop function shall conform to category 0 in
accordance with the requirements in 4.1.4 of #EN ISO 13850:2008$ and the emergency stop control
circuit shall conform to category 0 in accordance with the requirements in 9.2.2 of EN 60204-1:2006 and shall
fulfil the requirements of 9.2.5.4.2 of EN 60204-1:2006.
#If the machine is fitted with any other type of brake e.g. an electrical brake$ and/or with integrated feed
driven by a separate motor and/or guard locking the emergency stop function shall conform to category 1 in
accordance with the requirements in 4.1.4 of #EN ISO 13850:2008$ and the emergency stop control
circuit shall conform to category 0 in accordance with the requirements in 9.2.2 of EN 60204-1:2006 and shall
fulfil the requirements of 9.2.5.4.2 of EN 60204-1:2006.
The emergency stop devices shall conform to 10.7 of EN 60204-1:2006 and shall be at any time of self
latching type.
When initiated the emergency stopping sequence shall be the same as for normal stopping (see 5.2.4).
The design of the #control systems$ shall be such as to satisfy the emergency stopping sequence
requirements. If a time delay device is used the time delay shall be at least the maximum run-down time.
Either the time delay shall be fixed or the time delay adjustment device shall be sealed.
#The safety related part of the control systems (also see 5.2.1) for emergency stop shall be at least PL=c in
accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 13849-1:2008.$
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or circuits diagrams, inspection of the machine and
relevant functional testing of the machine.
5.2.6 Failure of the power supply
The restoration of the energy supply after a supply interruption shall not result in a restart of any machine
actuator in accordance with the requirements of #EN 1037:1995+A1:2008$. For electrically driven
machines this is achieved e.g. by providing an #under-voltage protection$ at a predetermined #under-
voltage$ level in accordance with the requirements in 7.5, paragraphs 1 and 3 of EN 60204-1:2006.
In the case of pneumatic and/or hydraulic supply interruption and where a dangerous movement is possible
after the restoration of the supply pressure re-starting of any dangerous movement of the machine shall be
prevented.
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or circuit diagrams, inspection of the machine and relevant
functional testing of the machine.
5.2.7 Failure of the control circuit
The requirements of Clause 6 of #EN 1037:1995+A1:2008$ shall apply and in addition:
The control circuits shall be designed so that a line rupture in any circuit (e.g. broken wire, pipe or hose) will
not result in the loss of a safety function e.g. involuntary start in accordance with EN 60204-1:2006,
#EN ISO 4413:2010$ and #EN ISO 4414:2010$.
For requirements for the control circuits see 5.2.1.
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or circuit diagrams, inspection of the machine and relevant
functional testing of the machine.
5.3 Protection against mechanical hazards
5.3.1 Stability
It shall be possible to fix stationary machines to a suitable stable structure e.g. floor. Facilities for fixing are e.g.
fixing holes or the necessary fixing devices in the machine frame (also see 6.3 f)).
Displaceable machines shall have the facility to make them stable during
