WARNING

Risk of potential equalization currents 

The TiM is designed to be operated in a system with pro-

fessional grounding of all connected devices and mounting 

surfaces to the same ground potential. If this condition is not 
met, potential equalization currents may through along the 
cable shields, causing the following hazards:

• 

Dangerous contact voltage on the metal housing

•  Malfunction or destruction of the TiM 
•  Heating of the cables with possible spontaneous combus-

tion.

Electrical Installation

" chapter in the 

&

 

Technical 

Information 

(Nr. 8015883)

 

on the product website (

www.

mysick.com/en/tim5xx

) for measures for eliminating 

hazards.

Scope of delivery

•  TiM including mounting kit 1 (two straight plates, 2  

M3 x 4 mm screws)

• 

Printed operating instructions in German and English, in 

other languages, as necessary.

• 

Other optional accessories (if these have been ordered)

Maintenance and care

The TiM does not contain any components that require main-
tenance. Maintenance is not necessary to ensure compliance 
with laser class 1.

 

>

If it is dirty, clean the infrared light permeable, black 
optical hood for optimal measurement/detection perfor-

mance. Do this carefully using a damp cloth (with a mild 

cleaning agent).
