A Introduction
Application guide
Safety of machinery and technical equipment is being stressed more and more. Terms like
“CE“-symbol, standards and machine guide lines are being used frequently and people need to be
updated due to ongoing extension of the safety regulations. This especially applies for the harmonization
of the standards within the EU-market.
With this application guide the user will get an overview of most important general standards, terms and
individual “B2“standards. The theoretical know-how on application of the safety relays will be backed up
by approximately 181 samples.
