The following table shows the safety-related characteristic parameters of the SOLID-2
Safety Light Curtain.
Table 2.1-1: Safety-related characteristic parameters of the SOLID-2 Safety Light
Curtain
• The safety sensor protects persons at access points or at points of operation of
machines and plants.
• The safety sensor with vertical mounting detects the penetration by fingers and hands
at points of operation or by the body at access points.
• The safety sensor only detects persons upon entry to the danger zone; it does not
detect persons who are located within the danger zone. For this reason, a start/restart
interlock is mandatory.
• The safety sensor with horizontal mounting detects persons who are located within the
danger zone (presence detection).
• The construction of the safety sensor must not be altered. When manipulating the safety
sensor, the protective function is no longer guaranteed. Manipulating the safety sensor
also voids all warranty claims against the manufacturer of the safety sensor.
• The safety sensor must be tested regularly by competent personnel.
• The safety sensor must be exchanged after a maximum of 20 years. Repairs or the
exchange of parts subject to wear and tear do not extend the service life.
2.1.2 Foreseeable misuse
In principle, the safety sensor is not suitable as a protective device in case of:
• danger of objects being expelled or hot or dangerous liquids spurting from the danger
zone
• applications in explosive or easily flammable atmospheres
