Safety instructions
This inductive sensor is not permitted for use in
applications where personal safety depends on
proper function of the device (not a safety
component according to the EU Machine
Directive). Read this manual carefully before
commissioning.
Sensors may only be connected when the
power is off.
The complete equipment shall be provided with
a suitable earth connection at the time of
installation.
No changes or modifications may be made to
devices which are intended for use in explosion
hazard areas. Both for proper operation as well
as for error states, certain residual risks remain
despite correct explosion protection; these risks
can cause danger to people and the system.
If safe operation can no longer be guaranteed,
the device must be disconnected from its power
source and secured against further use.
Use in explosion hazard areas
The sensor fulfills the requirements for device of device
group II, category 2 and is marked according to directive
2014/34/EU and additions with
and the following
marking.
For the American and Canadian scope of application
-Approval:
– II 2 G Ex ia IIC T4 Gb / Ta: −25 °C to 70 °C
For IECEx and PTB approval:
– II 2 G Ex ia IIC T6 Gb / Ta: −25 °C to 70 °C
Intended use
The use of the device beyond the technical
specifications is not allowed and is considered
improper use.
The specified protection type is only given in connection
with plug connectors that cannot be loosened
unintentionally.
The device must be protected from strong electromagnetic
fields and mechanical damage.
The device is, except on the active surface, designed for
use under normal atmospheric pressure conditions.
The valid country-specific standards and safety regulations
for installation and operation of devices in the specified
zone must be complied with. The documentation included
with the product represents the version valid at the date of

Installation and commissioning
We would like to expressly point out that any liability
resulting from operation of the device without the
appropriate user manual in the language of the relevant EU
country of use is excluded.
The prevailing standards and regulations for the installation
of devices in the named zones must be adhered to.
In the connector area, the penetration of moisture and dirt
during installation and maintenance must be avoided.
The connection may only be made with a M12 plug
connector allowed for this protection type.
In case a plug connector is opened temporarily or for a
longer time, the insertion of a blind plug is recommended
as a seal.
Only fit the plug connection while the power is off.
Commissioning may only be done after installation.
During installation, affix the included warning note and the
type plate permanently to a suitable, smooth and
greasefree steel or aluminum surface near the sensor.
