1.2 General Safety Guidelines
The Collision Sensor is not designed for, nor should it be used in, situations involving the safety of humans
or animals. The Collision Sensor is designed as a safety device to protect industrial components and
machinery from damage resulting from collisions and impacts. In all situations the user is responsible for
insuring that applicable safety practices are followed as outlined by the manufacturer of the equipment on
which the Collision Sensor is used.
The routing of electrical and pneumatic lines must minimize the possibility of stress, pullout, kinking,
rupture, etc. Failure of critical electrical and/or pneumatic lines to function properly may result in injury to
personnel and damage to equipment.
CAUTION:
The customer should lock out and discharge all energy to the work cell prior
to working on any Collision Sensor system. Failure to do so may result in damage to
equipment or injury to personnel.
