2.3
Owner's responsibility
If there is a reason to suspect, that hazard-free operation and thus adequate machine
protection is no longer possible, the device must be taken out of operation and safeguarded
from unintentional operation. This is the case
•
if the device shows visible damages
•
if the device no longer works
•
after any kind of overload (e.g. storage, transport) that has exceeded the
permissible limits.
DANGER
If tests with the
sensor
has to be carried out during operation or if the sensor has to be
replaced or decommissioned, it has to be taken into account, that this will impair the
machine protection and may cause the shut down of the machine due to opening electrical
circuits.
For this reason, the machine protection has to be deactivated by the responsible staff,
before starting such work.
Having finished the work, the machine protection has to be activated again immediately by
the responsible staff.
2.4
Instructions on ESD safety
DANGER
Internal components can be damaged or destroyed due to electrostatic discharges when
handling the sensor.
Consequently, prior to handling the sensor, suitable measures must be taken to prevent
electrostatic discharges via the sensor electronics (e.g. ESD bracelet).Transport and storage
of electronic components may only be made in ESD-safe packaging.
At dry meteorological conditions with relative humidity below 30 %, electrostatic
discharges can appear more frequently. In this case the sensor must be handled with
particular care when maintenance and repair works have to be made.
