Safety instructions

Use in accordance with the regulations
Displacement transducers of the WI series are intended for displacement
measurements such as in test rigs, for installation in measurement stands and
all types of measuring apparatus for testing and checking workpieces and for
checking processes in manufacturing or the construction industry.
Use for any additional purpose shall be deemed to be not in accordance with
the regulations.
In the interests of safety, the transducer should only be operated as described
in the Mounting Instructions. It is also essential to observe the appropriate
legal and safety regulations for the application concerned during use. The
same applies to the use of accessories.
The transducer is not a safety element within the meaning of its use as
intended. Proper and safe operation of this transducer requires proper
transportation, correct storage, assembly and mounting and careful operation
and maintenance.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The WI displacement transducer corresponds to the state of the art and is
fail safe.
The transducers can give rise to residual dangers if they are inappropriately
installed and operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning, maintenance or repair
of a displacement transducer must have read and understood the mounting
instructions and in particular the technical safety instructions.
Remaining dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small
area of displacement measurement technique. In addition, equipment
planners, installers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the
safety engineering considerations of displacement measurement technique in
such a way as to minimize remaining dangers. Prevailing regulations must be
complied with at all times. There must be reference to the remaining dangers
connected with displacement measurement technique.
