Qualified Personnel; Residual Dangers - HBM ClipX Bedienungsanleitung

Safety instructions
uct is delivered from the factory with a fixed hardware and software configura-
tion. Changes can only be made within the possibilities documented in the oper-
ating manual.

Qualified personnel

This device is only to be installed and used by qualified personnel (electricians
or persons trained in electrical engineering), strictly in accordance with the
safety regulations listed here. This includes personnel who meet at least one of
the three following requirements, depending on their assigned tasks:
• Knowledge of the safety concepts of measurement and automation technol-
ogy is a requirement and as project personnel, they must be familiar with
these concepts.
• As measurement or automation system operating personnel, they have
been instructed how to use the equipment. They are familiar with the opera-
tion of the equipment and technologies described in this document.
• As commissioning engineers or service engineers, you have successfully
completed the training to repair the automation systems. You are also
authorized to operate, ground and label circuits and equipment in accor-
dance with safety engineering standards.

Residual dangers

The ClipX system is a state-of-the art unit and as such is reliable. The scope of
supply and performance of the ClipX system covers only a small area of mea-
surement technology however. In addition, equipment planners, installers and
operators should plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering consid-
erations of measurement technology in such a way as to minimize residual dan-
gers. For example, automation equipment and devices must be designed in
such a way that adequate protection or locking against unintentional actuation is
provided (e.g. access controls, password protection, etc.). When devices are
working in a network, these networks must be designed in such a way that mal-
functions in individual nodes can be detected and shut down. Safety precau-
tions must be taken both in terms of hardware and software, so that a line break
or other interruptions to signal transmission do not cause undefined states or
loss of data in the automation device.
