On safety
 Manufacturers and operators of the machine on which the S3000 is used are
r
esponsible for obtaining and observing all applicable safety regulations and rules.

The notes, in particular the test notes (see chapter 9 “Commissioning” on page 120) in
these operating instructions (e.g. on use, mounting, installation or integration into the
machine control) must be observed.
 Changes to the configuration of the devices can degrade the protective function. After
every change to the configuration you must therefore 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, please always
use the password hierarchy provided by SICK to ensure that only authorized persons
make changes to the configuration. The SICK service team is available to provide
assistance if required.
 The tests must be carried out by qualified safety 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.
 The operating instructions must be made available to the operator of the machine where
the S3000 is used. The machine operator is to be instructed in the use of the device by
qualified safety personnel and must be instructed to read the operating instructions.
 To meet the requirements of the relevant product standards (e.g. EN 61496-1), the
external voltage supply for the devices must be able to bridge a brief mains failure of 20
ms. Power supplies according to EN 602041<1 satisfy this requirement. Suitable power
supplies are available as accessories from SICK (see section 13.3 “Accessories/spare
parts” on page 163).
 Enclosed with these operating instructions is a checklist for checking by the
manufacturer and OEM (see section 14.2 “Checklist for the manufacturer” on
page 169). Use this checklist when checking the system that is protected with the
S3000.
