Residual risks of power drive systems
When carrying out a risk assessment of the machine/plant in accordance with the EU
Machinery Directive, the machine manufacturer/plant operator must consider the following
residual risks associated with the control and drive components of a power drive system
(PDS).
1. Unintentional movements of driven machine components during commissioning,
operation, maintenance, and repairs caused by, for example:
– Hardware defects and/or software errors in the sensors, controllers, actuators, and
connection technology
– Response times of the controller and drive
– Operating and/or ambient conditions not within the scope of the specification
– Parameterization, programming, cabling, and installation errors
– Use of radio devices / cellular phones in the immediate vicinity of the controller
– External influences / damage
2. Exceptional temperatures as well as emissions of light, noise, particles, or gas caused by,
for example:
– Component malfunctions
– Software errors
– Operating and/or ambient conditions not within the scope of the specification
– External influences / damage
3. Hazardous shock voltages caused by, for example:
– Component malfunctions
– Influence of electrostatic charging
– Induction of voltages in moving motors
– Operating and/or ambient conditions not within the scope of the specification
– Condensation / conductive contamination
– External influences / damage
4. Electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated in operation that can pose a
risk to people with a pacemaker, implants or metal replacement joints, etc. if they are too
close.
5. Release of environmental pollutants or emissions as a result of improper operation of the
system and/or failure to dispose of components safely and correctly.

WARNING
Electromagnetic fields "electro smog"
Electromagnetic fields are generated by the operation of electrical power engineering
installations such as transformers, converters or motors.
Electromagnetic fields can interfere with electronic devices, which could cause them to
malfunction. For example, the operation of heart pacemakers can be impaired, potentially
leading to damage to a person's health or even death. It is therefore forbidden for persons
with heart pacemakers to enter these areas.
The plant operator is responsible for taking appropriate measures (labels and hazard
warnings) to adequately protect operating personnel and others against any possible risk.
•Observe the relevant nationally applicable health and safety regulations. In Germany,
"electromagnetic fields" are subject to regulations BGV B11 and BGR B11 stipulated by
the German statutory industrial accident insurance institution.
•Display adequate hazard warning notices.
•Place barriers around hazardous areas.
•Take measures, e.g. using shields, to reduce electromagnetic fields at their source.
•Make sure that personnel are wearing the appropriate protective gear.
