WARNING
In the application of UTICOR Technology, LP programmable control devices, you should consider
them components. Therefore, provisions other than the programmable control device must be taken
to protect personnel in the event of a programmable control device malfunction. Programmable
control devices should not be used as stand-alone protection in any application. Unless proper
safeguards are used, unwanted start-ups could result in equipment damage or personal injury. If
programmable controllers are used with operator interface and like devices, this hazard should be of
primary importance. The operator should be made aware of this hazard and appropriate precautions
should be taken.
In addition, consideration should be given to the use of an emergency stop function that is independent
of the programmable controller.
