ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Terminology Derived from Standards
The technical terms, terminology, symbols and the corresponding descriptions in this manual,
or that appear in or on the products themselves, are generally derived from the terms or
definitions of international standards.
In the area of functional safety systems, drives and general automation, this may include, but
is not limited to, terms such as safety, safety function, safe state, fault, fault reset, malfunction,
failure, error, error message, dangerous, etc.
Among others, these standards include:
IEC/EN 61131-2:2007 Programmable controllers, Part 2: Equipment requirements and tests.
ISO 13849-1:2015 Safety of machinery: Safety-related parts of control systems. General principles for
design.
EN 61496-1:2013 Safety of machinery: Electro-sensitive protective equipment. Part 1: General requirements
and tests.
ISO 12100:2010 Safety of machinery: General principles for design - Risk assessment and risk reduction.
IEC/EN 60204-1:2006 Safety of machinery: Electrical equipment of machines - Part 1: General requirements.
ISO 14119:2013 Safety of machinery: Interlocking devices associated with guards - Principles for design
and selection.
ISO 13850:2015 Safety of machinery: Emergency stop - Principles for design.
IEC/EN 62061:2015 Safety of machinery: Functional safety of safety-related electrical, electronic, and
electronic programmable control systems.
IEC 61508-1:2010 Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems:
General requirements.
IEC 61508-2:2010 Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems:
Requirements for electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems.
IEC 61508-3:2010 Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems:
Software requirements.
IEC 61784-3:2016 Digital data communication for measurement and control: Functional safety field buses.
2006/42/EC Machinery Directive
2014/30/EU Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
2014/35/EU Low Voltage Directive
In addition, terms used in the present document may tangentially be used as they are derived
from other standards such as:
IEC 60034 series Rotating electrical machines
IEC 61800 series Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems
IEC 61158 series Digital data communications for measurement and control – Fieldbus for use in industrial
control systems
Finally, the term, “zone of operation” may be used in conjunction with the description of specific
hazards, and is defined as it is for a hazard zone or danger zone in the Machinery Directive
(2006/42/EC) and ISO 12100:2010.
NOTE: The aforementioned standards may or may not apply to the specific products cited
in the present documentation. For more information concerning the individual standards
applicable to the products described herein, see the characteristics tables for those product
references.
