IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
Sensors described in this catalog do NOT include
the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to
allow their use in personnel safety applications. A
sensor failure or malfunction can result in either
an energized or a de-energized output condition.
Never use these products as sensing devices for
personnel protection. Their use as safety devices
may create an unsafe condition which could lead
to serious bodily injury or death.
