Original instructions

As a rule these are specialist personnel from the ESPE manufacturer or also
those persons who have been appropriately trained at the ESPE
manufacturer, are primarily involved in checking ESPE and are allocated
the task by the organization operating the ESPE.

2.2 Device applications

The SafeZone safety laser scanner is used to protect persons and
equipment. It is intended to be used to monitor hazardous areas indoors.

The SafeZone safety laser scanner is not intended for outdoor use.

The SafeZone safety laser scanner cannot provide protection from flying
parts or from emitted radiation.

The SafeZone safety laser scanner complies with the requirements in the
standard on the radiated emissions as defined for class A (industrial
application). It may cause radio interference in residential areas.

The safety level of the SafeZone safety laser scanner corresponds to
Category 3 in compliance with EN 954-1 and ISO EN 13849-1, SIL CL
2.

The SafeZone safety laser scanner is suitable for:
• Hazardous area protection

• Hazardous point protection

• Access protection

• Vehicle protection

2.3 Correct use

The SafeZone safety laser scanner must only be used as defined in
Section 2.2 “Device Applications” above. It must only be used by
qualified personnel on the machine where it has been installed and
initialized by specialist personnel in accordance with these operating
instructions. It is only permitted to be used on machines on which the
dangerous state can be stopped immediately by the SafeZone safety laser
scanner and/or it is possible to prevent the machine being placed in
operation.

Note: If the device is used for any other purposes or modified in any
way—also during mounting and installation—any warranty claim
against Rockwell Automation shall become void.

2.4 General safety notes and protective
measures

• This device meets the norms of OSHA 21 CFR 1040.10 as well as IEC

60825:2001. “Caution: use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.”

• During the mounting, installation and usage of the SafeZone safety

laser scanner, observe the standards and directives applicable in your
country. There is an overview of important regulations in Section 2.6
“Applicable directives and standards” on page 6.

• National/international rules and regulations apply to the installation,

commissioning, use and periodic technical inspections of the SafeZone
safety laser scanner, in particular - Machine Directive 98/37/EC

- Work Equipment Directive 89/655/EEC

- The work safety regulations/safety rules

- Other relevant health and safety regulations

• Manufacturers and users of the machine on which the SafeZone

safety laser scanner is used are responsible for obtaining and observing
all applicable safety regulations and rules.

• The test notes (see Section 8 “Commissioning” on page 36) in these

operating instructions (e.g. on use, mounting, installation or
integration into the machine controller) must be observed. Changes
to the configuration of the devices can degrade the protective
function. After every change to the configuration you must check the
effectiveness of the protective device. The person who makes the
change is also responsible for the correct protective function of the
device. When making configuration changes, always use the password
hierarchy provided by Rockwell Automation to ensure that only
authorized persons make changes to the configuration.

• 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.

• Operating instructions must be made available to the operator of the

machine where the SafeZone safety laser scanner is used. The machine
operator is to be instructed in the use of the device by specialist
personnel and must be instructed to read the operating instructions.

IMPORTANT

Depending on the application, other
protective devices and measures may
be required in addition to the safety
laser scanner.
