This chapter provides you with instructions on safety when handling
the product. This product is not capable of stand-alone operation
and is therefore categorized as an incomplete machine. The product
must be installed in a machine or plant by the machine manufac-
turer. Read the documentation prepared by the machine manufac-
turer.
Protective equipment
Do not remove or bypass any protective devices. Check all protec-
tive devices before operation. Make sure that all emergency
switches are present at all times and can be reached by you and
other people. People could be seriously or fatally injured by unpro-
tected machine parts.
Danger from magnetic fields
Magnetic fields on individual components of the AL8000 linear ser-
vomotors pose a risk to:
• persons with cardiac pacemakers or implanted or external defib-
rillators
• persons with magnetically conducting implants
• magnetic data storage devices, chip cards with magnetic strips
and other electronic devices
Maintain a safety distance to all magnetic parts and prevent direct
contact between magnetic parts and parts that are sensitive to inter-
ference.
Observe the requirements of BGV B 11 for electromagnetic fields
(Germany) and applicable national regulations in other countries.
Danger due to magnetic attraction
The magnetic plates contain permanent magnets and attract other
ferromagnetic objects. The high attractive forces cannot be con-
trolled by hand.
Ensure a safety distance of at least 25 cm from the magnetic plate
to other ferromagnetic parts, e.g. iron.
Observe the requirements of BGV B 11 for electromagnetic fields
(Germany) and applicable national regulations in other countries.
