WARNING This photoelectric presence sensor does NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can result in either an energized or a de-energized sensor output condition. Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. Its use as a safety device may create an unsafe condition which could lead to seri- ous injury or death. Only MACHINE-GUARD and PERIMETER-GUARD Systems, and other systems so designated, are designed to meet OSHA and ANSI machine safety standards for point-of-operation guarding devices. No other Banner sensors or controls are designed to meet these standards, and they must NOT be used as sensing devices for personnel protection.
