2.3 Installation, commissioning and operation
The position sensors must be used only in technically safe
condition. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe op-
eration, installation, connection and service, work may be
performed only by qualified technical personnel. If danger
of injury to persons or of damage to operating equipment
is caused by sensor failure or malfunction, additional safety
measures such as plausibility checks, limit switches, EMER-
GENCY STOP systems, protective devices etc. are required.
In the event of trouble, shut down the sensor and protect it
against accidental operation.

the instructions given below.
1. Protect the sensor against mechanical damage during
