1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose and use of this manual
Before starting the operation of Temposonics
®
position
sensors, read this documentation thoroughly and follow the
safety information. Keep this manual for future reference!
The content of this technical documentation is intended to
provide information on mounting, installation and commissioning by qualified automation personnel
1
or instructed
service technicians who are familiar with the project planning
and dealing with Temposonics
®
position sensors.
1.2 Used symbols and warnings
Warnings are intended for your personal safety and for avoidance of damage to the described product or connected devices. In this documentation, safety information and warnings to
avoid danger that might affect the life and health of operating
or service personnel or cause material damage are highlighted by the pictogram, defined below.
Symbol Meaning
NOTICE
This symbol is used to point to situations
that may lead to material damage, but not
to personal injury.
1/ The term “qualified technical personnel” characterizes
persons who
• are familiar with the safety concepts of automation
technology applicable
to the particular project and
• are competent in the field of electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) or
• have received adequate training for commissioning and
service operations or
• and are familiar with the operation of the device and know the
information required for correct operation provided in the
product documentation

2.1 Intended use
This product may be used only for the applications defined
under item 1 and only in conjunction with the third-party
devices and components recommended or approved by MTS
Sensors. As a prerequisite of proper and safe operation, the
product requires correct transport, storage, mounting and
commissioning and must be operated with utmost care.
1. The sensor systems of all Temposonics
®
series are
intended exclu sively for measurement tasks encountered
in industrial, commercial and laboratory applications. The
sensors are considered as system accessories and must
be connected to suitable evaluation electron ics, e.g. a
PLC, IPC, indicator or other electronic control unit.
2.2 Foreseeable misuse

2.3 Installation, commissioning and operation
The position sensors must be used only in technically safe
conditions. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe
operation, installation, connection and service, work may be
performed only by qualified technical personnel.
If danger of injury to persons or of damage to operating
equipment is caused by sensor failure or malfunction,
additional safety measures such as plausibility checks, limit
switches, EMERGENCY STOP systems, protective devices
etc. are required. In the event of trouble, shut down the
sensor and protect it against accidental operation.
Safety instructions for commissioning
To maintain the sensor operability, it is mandatory to follow
the instructions given below.
1. Protect the sensor against mechanical damage during
installation and operation.
2. Do not open or dismantle the sensor.
3. Connect the sensor very carefully and pay attention to
the polarity of connections and power supply.
4. Use only approved power supplies.
5. Ensure the sensor is operating within the defined limits
for supply voltage, environmental conditions, etc.
6. Check the function of the sensor regularly and provide
documentation of the checks.
7. Before system switch-on, ensure that nobody’s safety
is jeopardized by starting machines.
2.4 Safety instructions for use in explosion-hazardous
areas
The sensors are not suitable for operation in explosionhazardous areas.
