Intended use
The SLG-2 is a switching automation light grid.
It is solely intended for the optical and non-contact detection of objects, animals, and
persons.
A switching automation light grid is designed for mounting and may only be operated
according to its intended function. For this reason, it is not equipped with direct safety
devices. The system designer must provide measures to ensure the safety of persons
and systems in accordance with the legal guidelines. In the event of any other usage
or modification to the SLG-2 (e.g., due to opening the housing during mounting and
electrical installation) or in the event of changes made to the SICK software, any claims
against SICK AG under the warranty will be rendered void.
