6 Notes on Safety
The product has been manufactured according to the
accepted rules of current technology. Even so, there is a risk
of injury or damage if the following safety instructions and the
warnings given in this instruction manual are not observed.
6.1 Intended use
The type DM2D/DM2F electropneumatic double valves
(DM valves) are safety components in accordance with
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and bear the CE marking.
Their intended use is to control ventilation and exhaust
in compressed air systems or similar applications, such
as the control of pneumatically actuated clutch/brake
combinations of mechanical presses, as well as to avoid
unexpected switch-on and release of energy in pneumatic
tubing systems and end devices in the industry.
f See section „Technical Data" for the standards and test
values complied with and adhered to by the product. See
the declaration of conformity for product-relevant EC
directives.
6.1.1 Safety function according to
ISO 13849 and ISO 16092-2:2019
DM valves are self-testing, redundant systems in
accordance with the requirements listed in ISO 13849-1
and -2. Their pneumatic "fail-safe exhaust" safety function
is ensured even in case of a valve failure (e.g. caused by
wear, contamination, or similar).For the safety function, DM
valves feature control technology properties to category 4/
Performance Level e in accordance with ISO 13849-1 and
-2, if integrated correctly into the control system.
All DM valves are equipped with a "Dynamic Monitoring"
function (self-contained), a Memory function (fault
memory) and a Reset function.
The product has been engineered and manufactured
according to the fundamental and proven safety principles
of ISO 13849-1 and -2 and ISO 16092-2:2019.
6.1.2 Common Cause Failure – CCF
Common cause failures result in a loss of the safety func-
tion as both channels fail simultaneously in this case.
Apply the following measures to prevent common cause
failures:
• Observe the permissible values for vibration and impact
loading
• Observe the temperature range
