This Standard specifies functional requirements and design principles for the emergency stop function on machinery, independent of the type of energy used to control the function.
This Standard is applicable to all machinery except for:
— Machines in which the provision of emergency stop would not lessen the risk;
— Hand-held portable machines and hand-guided machines.
This Standard does not deal with functions such as reversal or limitation of motion, deflection, shielding, braking or disconnecting, which can be part of the emergency stop function.
2 Normative References
The following Standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this Part are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies.
