EN ISO 13849

EN ISO 13849 is an international safety standard that guides the design and implementation of safety-related control systems for machinery. It helps ensure that machines operate safely by evaluating how reliable and robust their safety functions are, considering factors like potential hazards and system complexity. The standard assigns safety categories and performance levels, enabling manufacturers to assess and improve their safety measures. In essence, it provides a structured approach to minimize risks, ensuring machinery can operate safely while meeting regulatory requirements.
