Phoenix is an accepted course provider of the TÜV Rheinland Functional Safety Training Program.

Within the European Economic Area, only machines complying with the safety requirements of the Machinery Directive and marked with a CE mark may be placed on the market. For this purpose, it is necessary that legal requirements are integrated into the company processes.

Within this training the context of requirements will be explained. In small groups participants will learn how to design the conformity process on a real example machine in a very practice-oriented way.

Knowledge regarding the implementation of the activities required for the Functional Safety of machines will be passed on as well as information about further required steps before the CE mark can be affixed.

The process of technical measures for Functional Safety is divided into eight phases (phase 0 to phase 7). This allows the implementation of all safety-related requirements in a consistent, plannable and thus comprehensible manner. The procedure for each phase is illustrated using the example of a safety function.

Target group

Mechanical/electrical designers, software/hardware developers, project managers, quality managers, FS engineers, technicians, skilled workers, foremen
