Warning!
Danger to life due to interference from multiple photoelectric protective devices
If you use several pieces of photoelectric protective equipment in your plant, these
may interfere with each other if positioned too close together. The resulting
malfunction may result in a failure to detect persons or objects, or in OSSDs
switching off unintentionally.
■
When using multiple items of photoelectric protective equipment, ensure
during the planning stage and before commissioning that cross-talk is
prevented.
■
Optically shield the protective equipment devices from each other, if
necessary using structural methods.
■
Prevent optically active objects such as lenses or filters from entering the
beam path.
■
Ensure that structural methods cannot subsequently become ineffective.
