Safety Manual

4
It is never acceptable to use Eva when:
1. There is a risk of explosion.
2. The work being done is medical, life critical or life threatening.
3. The robot will be part of a system that elevates or transports
people.
4. A full risk assessment has not been completed.
5. The performance ratings required are higher than those
in the robot’s documentation (see Technical Reference
Manual).
6. The hazards require faster safety function reaction times than
the robot is capable of (see Section C - Protective Features
in this manual).
Whilst every effort has been made to highlight the hazards
associated with the robot, there may be additional risks arising
from the application, how the robot has been installed, and how
it is used. It is essential that a full risk assessment is conducted
to identify these risks before putting the robot to work. The
information in this manual must not be construed as a warranty
from Automata.
For more information on the EU Directives Eva conforms to and
the standards that have been applied refer to the CE Declaration of
Incorporation (DOI) supplied with the robot. A separate DOI has also
been provided for UKCA. If you require a new copy of either DOI
please contact Automata.
