\u201cOne always keeps learning, but if you don\u2019t work with the safety com\u00adpo\u00adnents that are avail\u00adable on the market on a day-to-day basis while also keeping an eye on the var\u00adious devel\u00adop\u00adments and laws, it is hard to stay up to date. That\u2019s why we trust Pilz\u2019s know-how and expe\u00adri\u00adence in this respect. The experts have detailed knowl\u00adedge and think on
our behalf, just as we would expect from a reli\u00adable and trust\u00adworthy partner.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Practicable too!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to safety aspects, the goal is often mas\u00adtering the bal\u00adancing act between a safe and a prac\u00adti\u00adcable solu\u00adtion. This was also the case here. \u201cThe safest option would nat\u00adu\u00adrally be to enclose every\u00adthing and lock it up, but that just doesn\u2019t work in prac\u00adtice,\u201d states Andreas Schmutz, addressing the neces\u00adsity of inter\u00adven\u00adtion options for main\u00adte\u00adnance and repair pur\u00adposes. On the barrel cleaning and filling plant, for example, it is impor\u00adtant that part of the pro\u00adtec\u00adtive wall can be removed without much effort so that once a year an employee can advance with a fork\u00adlift to the fluid dis\u00adtrib\u00adutor in the centre for ser\u00advice oper\u00ada\u00adtions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In order to meet this require\u00adment, the deci\u00adsion was made to use mobile rail\u00adings. The solu\u00adtion also includes a new access man\u00adage\u00adment system. This makes sure that only the autho\u00adrised oper\u00adator actu\u00adally has the oppor\u00adtu\u00adnity to acknowl\u00adedge a fault that has been rec\u00adti\u00adfied on the plant or to return the system to oper\u00ada\u00adtion \u2013 manip\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtion or incor\u00adrect oper\u00ada\u00adtion are hereby ruled out. Adding to this, the orig\u00adinal light cur\u00adtains were replaced by rail\u00adings. The pri\u00adority here was prefer\u00adably using safety devices that were already in stock for other machines to avoid an unnec\u00ades\u00adsarily com\u00adpli\u00adcated spare part man\u00adage\u00adment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pilz\u2019s con\u00adsulting port\u00adfolio, from an analysis of poten\u00adtial hazard points, including defined coun\u00adter\u00admea\u00adsures, through to imple\u00admen\u00adta\u00adtion and safety-\u00adre\u00adlated val\u00adi\u00adda\u00adtion in accor\u00addance with inter\u00adna\u00adtional safety direc\u00adtives and stan\u00addards such as ISO 13849, IEC 62061 and IEC 61508, was prac\u00adti\u00adcally fully utilised. Today, the plant meets all the cur\u00adrent reg\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtions with regard to Safety and thus ensures a \u201cfluid\u201d filling process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
