Machine Safety
3rd Party Validation
When designing and installing a safety system, conducting both a safety system verification and a safety system validation are critical steps in the machine safety process to ensure that the safety design devices work as intended. Safety systems can function in unexpected ways after installation and should be validated before production begins, skipping these steps could leave fault conditions unprotected, leading to possible harm for operator and/or machine failure in the workplace.
Pieper Automation’s Machine Safety team have the expertise and resources to perform a thorough on site safety validation checkout and verification. Our Safety team will perform a detailed, structured test by checking for possible fault conditions of the safety system after it is installed to make sure it functions to the safety level required by the risk assessment. This process may involve lifting wires, shorting contacts, removing power, or faulting devices which to simulate the possible fault conditions.
