CAUTION
Observing the safety laser scanner through optical instruments (such as magnifying
glasses, lenses, telescopes) may be hazardous for the eyes.
b
Do not look directly at the laser beam source using optical instruments.
Mounting and electrical installation
DANGER
Death or severe injury due to electrical voltage and/or an unexpected startup of the
machine
b
Make sure that the machine is (and remains) disconnected from the voltage
supply during mounting and electrical installation.
b
Make sure that the dangerous state of the machine is and remains switched off.
Repairs and modifications
DANGER
Improper work on the product
A modified product may not offer the expected protection if it is integrated incorrectly.
b
Apart from the procedures described in this document, do not repair, open, manip‐
ulate or otherwise modify the product.
2.2
Intended use
The safety laser scanner is an electro-sensitive protective device (ESPE) and is suitable
for the following applications:
•
Hazardous area protection
•
Mobile hazardous area protection (e.g. protection from automated guided vehicles)
The product must not be used in safety functions.
The safety laser scanner is suitable for use in indoor and outdoor industrial environ‐
ments. The industrial area of application is an area that is inaccessible to the public
and that can only be entered by briefed adult personnel.
The safety laser scanner must only be used within the limits of the prescribed and
specified technical data and operating conditions at all times.
When operating outside the specified technical data, which also include ambient condi‐
tion, the detection capability of the device is not guaranteed.
If the device is to be used outside the application specified in this chapter, the machine
manufacturer must conduct an appropriate risk assessment. In this assessment, the
manufacturer must conduct a proper check of the extended application framework and
confirm the safety function with suitable tests.
When checking the extended application framework, the machine manufacturer must
ensure they conduct the following steps in particular:
•
Take into consideration the difference between the application stated explicitly in
this document and the actual operational purpose
•
Take into consideration application-specific standards, e.g. ISO 25119.
•
Conduct systematic analyses and consult appropriate standards, e.g. IEC 62998.
•
Conduct a systematic validation of the safety function.
