2.1

Intended use

A position measuring system is composed of a slide
combined with a sensor head (e.g. BML-S2B-...) and a
slide rail with magnetic tape. The system is installed on a
flat surface in a machine or installation and connected to
the moving machine part by a guide arm. Flawless function
in accordance with the specifications in the technical data
is ensured only when using original BALLUFF accessories.
Use of any other components will void the warranty.
The information in these instructions must be observed,
particularly information related to installation. Improper use
will result in the loss of warranty and liability claims against
the manufacturer.
2.2 General safety notes for the position
measuring system
Installation and startup may only be performed by
trained specialists.
Qualified personnel are those who can recognize possi-
ble hazards and institute the appropriate safety measures
due to their professional training, knowledge, and expe-
rience as well as their understanding of the relevant regula-
tions pertaining to the work to be done.
The operator is responsible for ensuring that local safety
regulations are observed.
In particular, the operator must take steps to ensure that a
defect in the position measuring system will not result in
hazards to persons or equipment.
If defects and unresolvable faults occur in the magnetic
tape, the position measuring system should be taken out
of service and secured against unauthorized use.
