following conditions are met:
The control of the machine must be electrical.
The dangerous state of the machine must be transferable at any time into a safe state.
Sender and receiver unit must be mounted so that objects penetrating the hazardous
area are safely identified by the C4000 Select.

area such that it cannot be operated by a person working inside the hazardous area.
When operating the reset button, the operator must have full visual command of the
hazardous area.
