8.3
Device replacement
Faulty or damaged devices must be dismantled and replaced with new or repaired
devices of the
same type
.
As all external cable connections terminate in the system plug or the round connectors,
there is no need to repeat the electrical installation when the device is replaced. The
replacement device can simply be connected.
NOTE
Disconnect the power to the system!
While the device is connected, the system may start unintentionally.
Make sure that the entire system is disconnected from the voltage supply during all
exchange processes.

Seals
NOTE
When the
QC passed
seal is broken, the device loses its warranty.
If your device is still within the warranty period, weigh up if you should replace the
system plug yourself or send the device to SICK for repair. After the warranty period has
expired, the seal can be broken without a second thought.
