      • Preface/Scope

      CSA Preface


      This is the first edition of CAN/CSA-E61496-1, Safety of machinery - Electro-sensitive protective equipment - Part 1: General requirements and tests, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled CEI/IEC (Commission Électrotechnique Internationale/International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 61496-1 (first edition, 1997-08).


      Scope


      This part of IEC 61496 specifies general requirements for the design, construction and testing of electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) for the safeguarding of machinery. Special attention is directed to functional and design requirements that ensure an appropriate safetyrelated performance is achieved. An ESPE may include optional safety-related functions, the requirements for which are given in annex A.


      The particular requirements for specific types of sensing function are given in other parts of this standard.


      This standard does not specify the dimensions or configuration of the detection zone and its disposition in relation to hazards in any particular application, nor what constitutes a hazardous state of any machine. It is restricted to the functioning of the ESPE and how it interfaces with the machine.


      This standard may be relevant to applications other than those for the protection of persons, for example for the protection of machinery or products from mechanical damage. In those applications additional requirements may be necessary, for example when the materials that have to be recognized by the sensing function have different properties from those of persons.


      This standard does not deal with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission requirements.


      This part of IEC 61496 provides general requirements for ESPEs of various types employing different methods of sensing. The particular requirements for specific types of sensing function will be covered in subsequent parts of this standard. The requirements for ESPEs using active opto-electric protective devices, e.g. light curtains, are contained in part 2.


      This part refers to the technical suitability of the electro-sensitive protective equipment. Its application may require the use of substances and/or test procedures that could be injurious to health unless adequate precautions were taken. Conformance with this standard in no way absolves either the supplier or the user from statutory obligations relating to the safety and health of persons during the use of the equipment covered by this standard.

      Préface CSA


      Ce document constitue la première édition de la CAN/CSA-E61496-1, Sécurité des machines - Équipements de protection électro-sensibles - Partie 1 : Prescriptions générales et essais. Il s'agit de l'adoption, avec exigences propres au Canada, de la norme CEI/IEC (Commission Électrotechnique Internationale/International Electrotechnical Commission) 61496-1 (première édition, 1997-08), qui porte le même titre.


      Domaine d'application


      La présente partie de la CEI 61496 définit les prescriptions générales de conception, de construction et d'essai des équipements de protection électro-sensibles (ESPE) pour la sécurité des machines. Une attention particulière est portée sur les prescriptions de fonctionnement et de conception assurant que le niveau de sécurité approprié est atteint. Un ESPE peut proposer des fonctions optionnelles, liées à la sécurité: les prescriptions pour celles-ci sont énumérées en annexe A.


      Les prescriptions particulières pour des types spécifiques de fonctions de détection sont fournies dans d'autres parties de cette norme.


      La présente norme ne prescrit ni les dimensions ou la configuration de la zone de détection, ni sa disposition par rapport aux risques (phénomènes dangereux) dans une application particulière, ni ce qui constitue un état dangereux pour une machine donnée. Elle se limite au fonctionnement de l.ESPE et à son interface avec la machine.


      Il est possible que la présente norme soit utilisable pour des applications autres que la protection des personnes, par exemple la protection des machines ou des produits contre des dommages mécaniques. Dans ces applications, des prescriptions supplémentaires peuvent être nécessaires, par exemple lorsque les matériaux qui doivent être reconnus par le dispositif de détection ont des caractéristiques différentes de celles des personnes.


      Cette norme n'englobe pas les prescriptions relatives à l'émission concernant la compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM). La présente partie de la CEI 61496 fournit des prescriptions générales pour les ESPE de divers types utilisant diverses méthodes de détection. Les prescriptions particulières pour des types spécifiques de détection seront traitées dans des parties ultérieures de la présente norme. Les prescriptions applicables aux ESPE utilisant des systèmes de protection photoélectriques actifs, comme les barrières immatérielles par exemple, sont traitées dans la partie 2.


      La présente partie fait référence à l'aptitude technique des équipements de systèmes de protection électro-sensibles. Il est admis que leur application nécessite l'utilisation de substances et/ou de procédures d'essai qui peuvent nuire à la santé si des précautions appropriées ne sont pas prises. La conformité à la présente norme ne dispense en aucune manière le fournisseur ou l'utilisateur de leurs obligations légales en matière de sécurité et d'hygiène des personnes dans le cadre de l'utilisation des équipements concernés par la présente norme.
