1.6 Warning about misuse
In case of improper use or manipulation of the safety switch-
gear, personal hazards or damages to machinery or plant
components cannot be excluded when safety switchgear is
used. The relevant requirements of the standard ISO 14119
must be observed.
1.7 Exclusion of liability
We shall accept no liability for damages and malfunctions resulting from
defective mounting or failure to comply with this operating instructions
manual. The manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages
resulting from the use of unauthorised spare parts or accessories.
For safety reasons, invasive work on the device as well as arbitrary
repairs, conversions and modifications to the device are strictly
forbidden; the manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages
resulting from such invasive work, arbitrary repairs, conversions and/or
modifications to the device.

2.4 Destination and use
This non-contact, electronic safety sensor is designed for application in
safety circuits and is used for monitoring the position of movable safety
guards. In this application, the safety sensor monitors the position of
hinged, sliding or removable safety guards by means of the coded
electronic actuator.
The safety switchgears are classified according to
ISO 14119 as type 4 interlocking devices.
The safety sensor CSS 300 is suitable for concealed
installation behind stainless steel.
The diagnostic output of the safety sensor alternatively can be used
as a conventional output or as a “serial output“ with input and output
channel. The serial connections of the individual sensors are wired
in series together with other devices and connected to a Field Bus
Gateway.
Mode of operation of the safety outputs
The opening of a safety guard, i.e. the actuator is removed out of the
active zone of the sensor, will immediately disable the safety outputs of
the sensor (also refer to Switching distance of the safety sensor).
Any error that does not immediately affect the functioning of the safety
sensor (e.g. too high the ambient temperature, interference potential at
a safety output, cross-wire short) will lead to a delayed shut-down. The
safety outputs are disabled after 30 minutes if the error is not rectified.
This signal combination, diagnostic output disabled and safety channels
still enabled, can be used to stop the production process in a controlled
manner. After fault rectification, the error message is reset by opening
and re-closing the corresponding safety guard. The safety outputs
enable and allow a restart.
Series-wiring
Max. 31 sensors can be wired in series. A 200 m long sensor chain can
be set up. Wiring examples for series-wiring, refer to appendix
The user must evaluate and design the safety chain in
accordance with the relevant standards and the required
safety level.
If multiple safety sensors are involved in the same safety
function, the PFH values of the individual components must
be added.
The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety
component is integrated, must be validated to the relevant
standards.
