Safety of machinery - Electro-sensitive protective equipment - Part 1: General requirements and tests (IEC 61496-1:2020)

This part of IEC 61496 specifies general requirements for the design, construction and testing
of non-contact electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) designed specifically to detect
persons or part of a person as part of a safety-related system. Special attention is directed to
functional and design requirements that ensure an appropriate safety-related performance is
achieved. An ESPE can include optional safety-related functions, the requirements for which
are given in Annex A.
NOTE "Non-contact" means that physical contact is not required for sensing.
This document is intended to be used with a subsequent part of IEC 61496 that provides
particular requirements based on the sensing technology.
EXAMPLE This document and IEC 61496-2 are used for AOPDs; this document and IEC 61496-3 are used for
AOPDDRs.
Where a part covering the sensing technology does not exist, IEC TS 62998-1 is used.
Where the IEC 61496 series does not contain all necessary provisions, IEC TS 62998-1 is
used.
It is an additional possibility to combine those aspects covered by the IEC 61496 series in
addition to IEC TS 62998-1.
This document does not specify the dimensions or configuration of the detection zone and its
disposition in relation to hazards in any particular application, nor what constitutes a
hazardous state of any machine. It is restricted to the functioning of the ESPE and how it
interfaces with the machine.
While a data interface can be used to control optional safety-related ESPE functions
(Annex A), this document does not provide specific requirements. Requirements for these
safety-related functions can be determined by consulting other standards (for example,
IEC 61508 (all parts), IEC 62046, IEC 62061, and ISO 13849-1).
This document can be relevant to applications other than those for the protection of persons,
for example for the protection of machinery or products from mechanical damage. In those
applications, different requirements can be appropriate, for example when the materials that
have to be recognized by the sensing function have different properties from those of
persons.
This document does not deal with requirements for ESPE functions not related to the
protection of persons (e.g. using sensing unit data for navigation).
This document does not deal with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission
requirements.

Sicherheit von Maschinen - Berührungslos wirkende Schutzeinrichtungen - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen und Prüfungen (IEC 61496-1:2020)

Sécurité des machines - Equipements de protection électro-sensibles - Partie 1: Exigences générales et essais (IEC 61496-1:2020)

L'IEC 61496-1:2020 définit les exigences générales de conception, de construction et d'essai des équipements de protection électrosensibles (ESPE) sans contact spécifiquement conçus pour détecter des personnes au sein d’un système relatif à la sécurité. Une attention particulière est accordée aux exigences de fonctionnement et de conception assurant la satisfaction aux performances relatives à la sécurité appropriées. Un ESPE peut proposer des fonctions facultatives liées à la sécurité: les exigences relatives à celles-ci sont données à l’Annexe A.
L'IEC 61496-1:2020 est destiné à être utilisé avec une partie ultérieure de l’IEC 61496 qui définit des exigences particulières en fonction de la technologie de détection.
En l’absence d’une partie couvrant la technologie de détection, l’IEC TS 62998-1 est utilisée.
Dans le cas où la série IEC 61496 ne contient pas toutes les dispositions nécessaires, l’IEC TS 62998-1 est utilisée.
Il est en outre possible de combiner ces aspects couverts par la série IEC 61496 à l’IEC TS 62998-1.
Le présent document ne spécifie ni les dimensions ou la configuration de la zone de détection, ni sa disposition par rapport aux dangers dans toute application particulière, ni ce qui constitue un état dangereux pour toute machine donnée. Il se limite au fonctionnement de l’ESPE et à son interface avec la machine.
Bien qu’une interface de données puisse être utilisée pour commander des fonctions de l'ESPE relatives à la sécurité facultatives (Annexe A), le présent document ne fournit pas d’exigences particulières. Les exigences liées à ces fonctions relatives à la sécurité peuvent être déterminées en consultant d'autres normes (par exemple, l'IEC 61508 (toutes les parties), l’IEC 62046, l’IEC 62061, et l'ISO 13849-1).
Le présent document peut être pertinent pour des applications autres que la protection des personnes, par exemple la protection des machines ou des produits contre des dommages mécaniques. Dans ces applications, des exigences différentes peuvent être nécessaires, par exemple lorsque les matériaux qui doivent être reconnus par le dispositif de détection ont des caractéristiques différentes de celles des personnes.
Le présent document ne traite pas des exigences relatives aux fonctions de l’ESPE non liées à la protection des personnes (en utilisant, par exemple, les données de l’élément de détection en matière de navigation).
Le présent document ne traite pas des exigences d’émission relatives à la compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM).
L'IEC 61496-1:2020 annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 2012. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
a) Il a été défini que certaines exigences relatives aux ESPE dépendant de la technologie de détection n’étaient pas incluses dans l’IEC 61496-1. Ces exigences sont fournies dans une partie ultérieure de l’IEC 61496.
b) Les exigences de protection contre les influences environnementales issues des parties ultérieures de l’IEC 61496 et qui sont communes à tous les ESPE ont été consolidées dans l’IEC 61496-1.
c) Certaines procédures d’essai de l’IEC 61496-1 étaient incomplètes. Elles ont été enrichies par des procédures plus détaillées et étape par étape.
d) Certaines exigences et procédures de l’IEC 61496-1 sont désormais couvertes par de nouvelles normes génériques relatives à la sécurité des machines. Les exigences de l’IEC 61496-1 ont été harmonisées avec des références à ces nouvelles norme

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC
Publication(s)"). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.

The reasons and objectives for amending IEC 61496

The main purpose for these amendments to IEC 61496-1 and -2 is as follows:
1) To clarify that Part one of this standard defines only general requirements for non-contact electro sensitive
protective equipment. Part one is intended to be used with a subsequent Part that defines particular
requirements based on the sensing technology used for detection.
2) It was discovered that some additional requirements for environmental influences were repeated in parts 2,
3, 4-2 and 4-3. It was decided that these requirements were common to all ESPEs and would be appropriate
to include in Part one.
3) Since this standard was written, several new generic standards have been developed that focus on specific
environmental influences that can affect functional safety (e.g. EMC, temperature, vibration). Part one has
been updated to harmonize with the requirements of the new generic standards, including adjusting
terminology and format of tables to match the new standards. It is not intended to change the actual
requirements.
4) In the original standard, some of the test procedures for environmental influences were unclear or
incomplete. These procedures have been expanded to provide detailed step by step procedures. Where
appropriate, references to procedures described in the generic test standards are provided.
5) There are Type 3 AOPDs on the market today. The requirements for Type 3 AOPDs are now included in Part
two.
6) Some of functional safety fault protection requirements were un-realistic and were generally not possible to
comply with. These requirements have been adjusted slightly.
7) Some small corrections and improvements were included throughout the document.
8) It is not intended that these amendments result in significant changes to the requirements. It is believed that
most ESPEs that comply with the existing standards will still be compliant with these reorganized
documents.

21 Introduction
22 Delete the last paragraph.
23 Due to the complexity of the technology used to implement ESPEs, there are many issues that
24 are highly dependent on analysis and expertise in specific test and measurement techniques.
25 In order to provide a high level of confidence, independent review by relevant experts is
26 recommended.
27
28 1 Scope
29 Add, after the first paragraph:
30 This Part 1 is intended to be used with a subsequent part that provides particular
31 requirements based on the sensing technology. Where a part covering the sensing technology
32 does not exist, this Part 1 can be used for guidance.
33 Example: Part 1 and Part 2 are used for AOPDs, Part 1 and Part 3 are used for AOPDDRs.
34 Add, before the last paragraph:
35 This standard does not deal with requirements for ESPE functions not related to the
36 protection of persons (e.g. using sensing unit data for navigation).
37

55
monitored. In the event of a fault, the OSSD(s) shall be signalled to go to the OFF-state. If
56 one or more OSSDs does not go to the OFF-state, a lock-out condition shall be initiated.
57 4.2.2.4 Particular requirements for a type 3 ESPE
58 Replace entire clause with the following text:
59 A single fault in the sensing device resulting in a complete loss of the stated ESPE detection
60 capability shall cause the ESPE to go to a lock-out condition within the specified response
61 time.
62 A single fault resulting in a deterioration of the stated ESPE detection capability shall cause
63 the ESPE to go to a lock-out condition within a time period of 5 s following the occurrence of
64 that fault.
65 A single fault resulting in an increase in response time beyond the specified value or
66 preventing at least one OSSD going to the OFF-state shall cause the ESPE to go to a lock-out
67 condition immediately, i.e. within the response time, or immediately upon any of the following
68 demand events where fault detection requires a change in state:
69 - on actuation of the sensing function;
70 - on switch off/on;
71 - on reset of the start interlock or the restart interlock, if available (see A.5 and A.6);
72 - on the application of an external test signal, if available.
73 In cases where a single fault which in itself does not cause a failure to danger is not detected,
74 the occurrence of one additional fault shall not cause a failure to danger. For verification of
75 this requirement, see 5.3.4.
76 4.2.3.2 Protection against electric shock
77 Replace the paragraph with the following text:
78 Protection against electric shock shall be provided in accordance with 6 of IEC 60204-1:2016.

220 Clause 4.3.5 is moved here from IEC 61496-2. Insert, after clause 4.3.4, the new clause 4.3.5
221 as follows:
222 4.3.5 Light interference
223 When an ESPE uses technology that can be influenced by ambient light conditions, that ESPE
224 shall meet the requirements of this clause.
225 Where other parts of the IEC 61496 series refer to “Light interference”, then the requirements
226 and tests of that part will apply.
227 The ESPE shall continue in normal operation when subjected to
228 − incandescent light;
229 − fluorescent light operated with high-frequency electronic power supply.
230 The ESPE shall not fail to danger when subjected to
231 − incandescent light (simulated daylight using a quartz lamp);
232 − flashing beacons;
233 − fluorescent light operated with high-frequency electronic power supply;
234 − for a type 3 and type 4 ESPE, radiation from an emitting assembly (or element) of
235 identical design. Combinations of technical measures and configuration procedures in
236 accordance with the information for use provided by the supplier shall be tested
237 Note 1 Radiation from an emitting assembly of identical design is considered to be a worse case example of
238 interference from a LED lamp.
239 Note 2 For type 2 ESPEs the risk of failure to danger from an emitting element of identical design can be reduced
240 by installation measures provided by the supplier.
241 These requirements shall be met when the ESPE conforms to the tests in 5.4.6.
242 No requirements are given for immunity to other extraneous light sources which may cause
243 abnormal operation or failure to danger. A requirement for the supplier to inform the user of
244 potential problems is given in 7 (ff).

247 Add, at the end of clause 5.1.1.2, the following text:
248 As a result of the analysis of the design and the integrity of the detection capability of the
249 ESPE a test plan shall be established considering the test conditions and parameters outlined
250 in this document. In the following tests, it shall be verified that when the OSSDs go to the
251 OFF-state, they remain in the OFF-state while the test piece is present in the detection zone.
252 The minimum test conditions shall be as specified in this standard or by the supplier,
253 whichever is more stringent.
254 Tests can be omitted if an analysis can demonstrate that
255 − limited intended use in application justifies omission of test (e.g. only for top mounting, for
256 use only in non-condensing environment), or
257 − a less stringent test is replaced by a more stringent test (e.g. test of equal detection
258 capability at minimum working range versus maximum working range), or
259 − detection capability is not affected by the environmental condition (e.g. condensation).
260 The analysis shall be documented in the test plan.
261 5.1.2.2 Measurement accuracy
262 Add, at the end of the bullet list, the following two new items (these two items are moved here

278 If the ESPE cannot resume normal operation due to a permanent component failure, it is
279 acceptable if it is verified that the OSSD(s) remain in the OFF-state.
280 5.3.3 Type 2 ESPE
281 Delete the last paragraph of clause 5.3.3, as follows:
282 Where automatic initiation of the periodic test is provided, it shall be verified that faults that lead to the
283 loss of the monitoring function are detected and cause at least one OSSD to go to the OFF-state. If
284 one or more OSSDs does not go to the OFF-state, a lock-out condition shall be initiated.
285 5.3.5 Type 4 ESPE
286 Replace the third and fourth paragraphs with the following new paragraph:
287 Testing for the accumulation of more than two faults need not be carried out.
288 5.4.2 Ambient temperature variation and humidity
289 Insert, before the first paragraph, the following new heading:
290 5.4.2.1 General
291 Insert, before the second paragraph, the following new heading:
292 5.4.2.2 Temperature variation and humidity test sequence
293 Add, after the new clause 5.4.2.2, a new clause 5.4.2.3 with the following heading and text:
294 5.4.2.3 Condensing test procedure
295 The ESPE shall be subjected to the following condensing test:
296 a) the ESPE shall be supplied with its rated voltage and stored in a test chamber at an
297 ambient temperature of 5 °C for 1 h;
298 b) the ambient temperature and the humidity shall be changed within a time period of up to
299 2 min to a temperature of (25 ± 5) °C and a relative humidity of (70 ± 5) %;
300 c) a C-test shall be performed with a duration of 10 min using a test piece;
301 d) if a restart interlock is available it shall not be operational during the C-test;
302
303 5.4.3.2 Supply voltage interruptions
304 Replace entire clauses 5.4.3.2 through 5.4.3.7 with the following:
305
306 5.4.3.2 Supply voltage dips and interruptions
307 Each applicable test specified in 4.3.2.2 shall be performed at least 10 times in the ON state
308 of the ESPE and 10 times in the OFF state. The OFF state shall be achieved by inserting a
309 test piece into the detection zone.

310 During tests 1 and 2, the ESPE shall remain in normal operation.
311 During test 3, it is permissible that the OSSDs go to the OFF state when applying the
312 interruption. If a lock-out condition occurs, the ESPE shall be recovered from the lock-out
313 condition before continuing the test.
314 Where the same lock-out condition occurs for 3 times, the test is deemed as passed and no
315 further interruptions are required in this state.
316 5.4.3.3 Burst
317 5.4.3.3.1 General requirements
318 For coupling of d.c. or less than 50 V a.c. power ports and signal ports, a capacitive coupling clamp
319 according IEC 61000-4-4:2012 shall be used. For other a.c. power ports, a coupling device network
320 (CDN) according IEC 61000-4-4:2012 shall be used.
321 The ESPE shall be subjected to bursts as specified in 4.3.2.3.1. A B-Test shall be performed in
322 accordance to following test sequence:
323 1. The OSSD(s) shall be in the ON-state in absence of a Test piece in the detection zone.
324 2. The test piece shall be placed in the detection zone. The OSSD(s) shall respond by going
325 from the ON-state to the OFF-state.
326 3. The disturbances in accordance to clause 4.3.2.3.1 shall be applied with a duration of at least
327 1 min per exposure. During the application, it shall be observed that the OSSD(s) remain(s) in
328 the OFF-state with the test piece being present in the detection zone.
329 4. The test piece shall be removed from the detection zone. The OSSD(s) shall respond by going
330 from the OFF-state to the ON-state.
331 5. The disturbance according clause 4.3.2.3.1 shall be applied again with a duration of at least 1
332 minute per exposure. During the exposure, it shall be observed that the OSSD(s) remain(s) in
333 the ON-state.
334 6. The test piece shall be placed in the detection zone. The OSSD(s) shall respond by going
335 from the ON-state to the OFF-state.
336 The test specified in 4.3.2.3.1 consists of several exposures (different coupling methods,
337 voltages, polarities). It is acceptable to run through the specified test sequence only once with
338 all exposures applied sequentially in step 3 and again in step 5, or the test sequence may be
339 run through several times with only one or a selection of exposures applied in each run.
340 5.4.3.3.2 Additional tests
341 A type 3 or a type 4 ESPE shall also be subjected to burst as specified in 4.3.2.3.2. A C-Test
342 shall be performed as follows:
343 1. The OSSD(s) shall be in the ON-state in absence of a Test piece in the detection zone.
344 2. The test piece shall be placed in the detection zone. The OSSD(s) shall respond by going
345 from the ON-state to the OF
