What is BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 - Safety of machinery about?
This is Part 1 of an international standard on the functional safety of machinery. Specifically , BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 provides guidance on the design and assessment of safety control systems.
Who is BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 - Safety of machinery for?
Relevant in all machinery related sectors, it will be used by:
Machine manufacturers, designers and integrators
Health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance)
Machine users, both employers and employees
Service providers e.g. for maintenance
Consumers (in the case of machinery intended for use by consumers)
What does BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 - Safety of machinery cover?
BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 specifies a methodology and provides related guidance for the design and integration of the safety-related parts of control systems (SRP/CS) that perform safety functions in machinery, including the design of software.
BS EN ISO 13849-1:2023 applies to SRP/CS for high demand and continuous mode including their subsystems, regardless of the type of technology and energy (e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical).
