If the working process is interrupted, extra care must be taken due to risks other
than those associated with regular operation. Such an interruption may have to be
rectified manually.
Spare parts and special equipment
ABB does not supply spare parts and special equipment which have not been
tested and approved by ABB. The installation and/or use of such products could
negatively affect the structural properties of the robot and as a result of that affect
the active or passive safety operation. ABB is not liable for damages caused by
the use of non-original spare parts and special equipment. ABB is not liable for
damages or injuries caused by unauthorized modifications to the robot.
Connection of external safety devices
Apart from the built-in safety functions, the robot is also supplied with an interface
for the connection of external safety devices. An external safety function can
interact with other machines and peripheral equipment via this interface. This
means that control signals can act on safety signals received from the peripheral
equipment as well as from the robot.
Personal protective equipment
Always use suitable personal protective equipment, based on the risk assessment
for the robot installation.
