2.1.2 Scanner Limitations

Environmental limitations — The SX5 Safety Laser Scanner is not suitable for use outdoors or under conditions with
significant temperature fluctuations. Humidity, condensation, and other weather influences can impair the safety function.
• Use the SX5 only in environmentally controlled areas.
• Observe all technical data and ambient conditions.
For industrial use only — The SX5 can cause radio interference and is not suitable for use in residential areas. Only use the
Scanner in industrial environments.
Not for use on vehicles with combustion engines — The SX5 is not suitable for use on vehicles with combustion engines,
because alternators or ignition systems can cause EMC disturbances.
Make no modifications to the Scanner — The SX5 may not be modified, or the Protective function of the Scanner can no
longer be guaranteed. Where changes are made to the Scanner, all guarantee claims against the manufacturer of the
Scanner shall no longer apply.
Service life TM in accordance with DIN ISO 13849 — The SX5's PL and PFHd specifications refer to the TM service life of
20 years. Repairs or replacement of wear and tear parts do not extend the service life.
Protective function limits — The SX5 does not protect against (including, but not limited to):
• Parts that are ejected from a machine
• Splashing/spraying liquids
• Gases and vapors
• Radiation
Vapors, smoke, dust, particles — Vapors, smoke, dust and all particles visible in the air can cause the machine to switch
OFF unintentionally. Do not use the SX5 in environments in which heavy vapors, smoke, dust or other visible particles are
present.
Stray light limitations — Light sources (including infrared, fluorescent, and strobe lights) can impair reliability. Ensure that no
interfering light sources are present within the SX5 detection plane.
• Prevent reflective surfaces at beam level.
• Where applicable, take additional separation (safety) distances into account.
