G5562A, G5563A Bravo Platform Safety and Installation Guide
The light curtain and shields may be installed only on a Bravo Platform and only by
Agilent service personnel who have been trained in the procedure.
If a Bravo Platform needs to be moved after the light curtain and shields are installed,
contact Agilent Technical Support to schedule the Bravo safety equipment
uninstallation and reinstallation.
Safety warnings and caution
To prevent potential injury, shut down the Bravo Platform and unplug the power cord
before installing the Light Curtain.
Do not replace the pendant with the Standard Light Curtain. The Standard Light
Curtain is an additional safety feature to be used with the emergency-stop pendant.
The light beams of the Standard Light Curtain extend across the front of the Bravo
Platform only. Access to moving parts from the sides or back of the device may be
possible and cannot be detected by the Standard Light Curtain. If access from the
sides or rear is possible, install the side and rear shields, as applicable.
Potential injury and equipment damage can result if you attempt to lift the Bravo
device while the light curtain and shields are attached. The light curtain posts attach
to the Bravo base handles, rendering the handles inaccessible as lift points. Do not
lift the Bravo device while the light curtain and shields are installed.
Handle the lightposts with care to prevent any damage to the glass panels. Avoid
touching the glass panels with your fingers. Fingerprints or dirt on the glass can
interfere with the Standard Light Curtain operation.
