Safety of machinery - Interlocking devices associated with guards - Principles for design and selection

This standard specifies principles for the design and selection - independent of the nature of the energy source - of interlocking devices associated with guards (as defined in 3.23.1 'interlocking device [interlock]', 3.22.4 'interlocking guard' and 3.22.5 'interlocking guard with guard locking' of EN 292-1).   It also provides requirements specifically intended for electrical interlocking devices (see clause 6).  This standard covers the parts of guards which actuate interlocking devices. Requirements for guards are given in prEN 953. The processing of the signal from the interlocking device to stop and immobilize the machine is dealt with in prEN 954-1.

Changed text — DRAFT AMENDMENT TO EN 1088:1995
Delete 5.7 "Design to minimize defeat possibilities" and substitute as follows:
5.7 Design to minimize defeat possibilities
5.7.1 General
Interlocking devices shall be designed and instructions for their installation and maintenance shall be given so
that they cannot be defeated in a simple manner.
NOTE "Defeat in a simple manner" means "intended operation achieved manually or with a readily available object".
Readily available objects may be :
 screws, needles, sheet-metal pieces;
 objects in daily use such as keys and coins;
 spare actuators or spare keys for the trapped-key interlocking devices;
 tools required by the intended use of the machine or readily available tools (e.g. screwdrivers, wrenches, hexagonal
keys and pliers.
“Defeat in a simple manner” includes the release of switches or actuators with the help of the above-mentioned tools, with
the intention to disable an interlocking device.
Provisions by which defeat may be made more difficult shall include at least one of the following measures:
a) provisions expressed in 5.2.2;
b) the use of interlocking devices or systems which are coded, e.g. mechanically, electrically, magnetically or
optically;
c) physical obstruction or shielding preventing access to the interlocking device while the guard is open (see
examples in Figures 5 and

EN 1088:1995/A1:2007 (E)
Introduction
The aim of this document is the specification of more precise requirements in order to improve the provisions
for minimizing the possibilities for defeat by machine operators. Research in some fields has shown that
operators often try to defeat a guard interlocking safety function by attempting to defeat the interlocking device,
the possibility of defeat being primarily attributable to shortcomings in the design of the machine.
1 Modification to 5.7
Delete 5.7 "Design to minimize defeat possibilities" and replace with the following:
“5.7 Design to minimize defeat possibilities
5.7.1 General
The requirements contained in this amendment for minimizing the possibilities for defeat of an interlocking
device need not apply if the safety interlocking function has other effective measures to minimize the
possibility of its defeat. These other measures include:
 specification of the safety interlocking function is such that measures for minimizing the possibilities for
defeat are implemented at the system level and therefore do not rely on the interlocking device itself (e.g.
cyclical testing, status indication, time limitation), see NOTE 1;
 specification of the safety interlocking function is such that measures for minimizing the possibilities for
defeat is achieved by removing the foreseeable reason for attempting to defeat the interlocking device.
This can include the provision of specific operating modes to facilitate the safe and efficient
accomplishment of all foreseeable tasks during the full lifecycle of the machine, see NOTES 1 and 2.
NOTE 1 The specification of safety functions and the design of safety related control systems that implement them are
outside the scope of this European Standard. For information on this subject see EN ISO 12100, EN 62061, EN ISO
13849-1 and EN ISO 13849-2.
NOTE 2 This approach can be effective at preventing any defeat of the safety function.
If the specification of the safety interlocking function is such that it is possible to defeat the safety function
solely by a reasonably foreseeable action at the interlocking device itself and if the device itself is to be relied
on to prevent defeat, it should provide measures to minimize the possibility of defeat. The extent to which
these measures are applied should depend on the likelihood of occurrence of attempts to defeat the device
and also on the risk exposed by the defeat of the safety function. This information shall be produced by risk
assessment (see EN 1050).
Interlocking devices shall be designed and instructions for their installation and maintenance shall be given, to
prevent the possibility of their defeat in a reasonably foreseeable manner.
NOTE 3 The implementation of alternative modes of operation can avoid the temptation and/or motivation of defeat.
NOTE 4 “Defeat in a reasonably foreseeable ma
