General safety notes and protective means

Read the general safety notes carefully and strictly observe them in when working at or
with the LD-MRS. Also observe the warning notes printed before the instructions in the
individual chapters of this document.

WARNING

Safety notes
Observe the following points in order to ensure safe use as intended of the LD-MRS:

The user must ensure that every person working on or with the LD-MRS has read and
understood these operating instructions.

Official and legal requirements must be adhered to when operating the LD-MRS.

For installation and usage of the LD-MRS

 

as well as for commissioning and regular tech-

nical inspection, national/international legal requirements apply, in particular
– the accident prevention regulations/safety rules
– other pertinent safety rules

Adhere to the following safety notes in order to prevent dangers for persons and/or
property:

The operator must ensure by suitable instructions and inspections that the window 
of the LD-MRS is always clean.

– Additionally, the local safety and accident prevention regulations apply for operating 

the LD-MRS.

– A defect of the control functions can cause danger for human life or property dam-

age at the LD-MRS.

Data integrity
In its products, SICK AG uses information technology, such as IO-Link or standard IP
technology. The focus is on the availability of the products and their features. It is the
consistent assumption of SICK AG that the user will maintain the integrity and confiden-
tiality of data and rights that are affected by the use of the products.
The user must observe appropriate safety measures such as network separation, fire-
walls, viral protection and patch management according to the situation.

2.4.1

Range of application

WARNING

Not permitted for personal protection!
The LD-MRS is NOT a device for ensuring personal protection as defined by applicable safe-
ty standards for machines!
