SECTION 1
Important Safety Warnings
!WARNING
Read and understand this section prior to installing an MS2800 system.
An MS2800 system is a general purpose sensing device designed to guard
personnel working around moving machinery.
Whether a specific machine application and MS2800 system installation com-
plies with safety regulations depends on the proper application, installation,
maintenance and operation of the MS2800 system. These items are the
responsibility of the purchaser, installer and employer.
The employer is responsible for the selection and training of personnel to
properly install, operate and maintain the machine and its safeguarding sys-
tems. An MS2800 system should only be installed verified and maintained by
a qualified person. A qualified person is defined as "an individual who under-
stands, is trained on, and demonstrates competence with the construction,
operation or maintenance of the machinery and the hazards involved."
To use the MS2800 system the following requirements must be met:
• The national/international rules and regulations apply to the installation,
use and periodic technical inspections of the safety light curtain, in partic-
ular:
• Machine Directive (98/37/EC)
• Equipment Usage Directive (89/655/EC)
• The work safety regulations/safety rules
• Other relevant health and safety regulations
• Observe the instructions in this manual regarding test regulations (e.g. on
use, mounting, installation or integration into the existing machine control
system) carefully.
• The tests must be carried out by specialist personnel or specially qualified
and authorized personnel and must be recorded and documented to
ensure that the tests can be reconstructed and retraced at any time.
• Check the effectiveness of the protective device after every change
because a change may degrade the safety function.
• The operating instructions must be made available to the operator of the
machine where the MS2800 system is installed.
• The machine operator is to be instructed in the use of the device by spe-
cialist personnel and must be instructed to read the operating instructions.
• The guarded machine must not present a hazard from flying parts.
• The guarded machine must have a consistent stopping time and ade-
quate control mechanisms.
• Additional guarding may be required for access to dangerous areas not
covered by the MS2800 system.
