Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 13856 establishes general principles and
specifies requirements for the design and testing of
pressure-sensitive edges and pressure-sensitive bars used as
safeguards and not as actuating devices for normal operation.
This part of ISO 13856 is applicable to pressure-sensitive edges
and pressure-sensitive bars, with or without an external reset
facility, used to detect persons or body parts that can be exposed
to hazards such as those caused by the moving parts of
machines.
It is not applicable to
-determining the suitability of a pressure-sensitive edge
or pressure-sensitive bar for a particular safeguarding
application,
-selection of an appropriate performance level for
safety-related parts of control systems (SRP/CSs) other than to
give minimum values,
-dimensioning or configuring of the effective sensing area
of pressure-sensitive edges or pressure- sensitive bars in relation
to any particular application,
-stopping devices according to IEC 60204-1 used only for
normal operation, including emergency stopping of machinery.
Requirements for the information to be provided by the
manufacturer are given to assist in the selection of a suitable
pressure-sensitive edge or pressure-sensitive bar and its
application.
Additional requirements can be necessary where
pressure-sensitive edges or pressure-sensitive bars are used in
locations accessible to elderly or disabled people or children.
