Operating instructions

Safety light curtain

The safety switchgear must be exclusively used in accordance with the 

versions listed below or for the applications authorised by the manufac-

turer Detailed information regarding the range of applications can be 

found in the chapter "Product description"

1.5  General safety instructions

The user must observe the safety instructions in this operating instruc-

tions manual, the country-specific installation standards as well as all 

prevailing safety regulations and accident prevention rules

Further technical information can be found in the Schmersal 

catalogues or in the online catalogue on the Internet:  

wwwschmersalnet

The information contained in this operating instructions manual is pro-

vided without liability and is subject to technical modifications

If multiple safety components are wired in series, the Per-

formance Level to EN ISO 13849-1 will be reduced due to the 

restricted error detection under certain circumstances The 

entire concept of the control system, in which the safety com-

ponent is integrated, must be validated to EN ISO 13849-2

There are no residual risks, provided that the safety instructions as well 

as the instructions regarding mounting, commissioning, operation and 

maintenance are observed

Additional measures could be required to ensure that the electro-sensi-

tive device does not present a dangerous breakdown, when other forms 

of light beams are available in a special application (eg use of wireless 

control devices on cranes, radiation of welding sparks or effects of 

stroboscopic lights)

1.6  Warning about misuse

In case of inadequate or improper use or manipulations of the 

safety switchgear, personal hazards or damages to machin-

ery or plant components cannot be excluded The relevant 

requirements of the standards EN ISO 13855 (successor of 

EN 999) and EN ISO 13857 must be observed

1.7  Exclusion of liability

We shall accept no liability for damages and malfunctions resulting from 

defective mounting or failure to comply with this operating instructions 

manual The manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages result-

ing from the use of unauthorised spare parts or accessories

For safety reasons, invasive work on the device as well as arbitrary re-

pairs, conversions and modifications to the device are strictly forbidden; 

the manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages resulting from 

such invasive work, arbitrary repairs, conversions and/or modifications 

to the device
