Electromagnetic Compatibility

(EMC)

The term "electromagnetic compatibility" is taken to

mean the capability of the product to function

smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic

radiation and electrostatic discharges are present,

and without causing electromagnetic interference to

other equipment.

In using the instrument for distance measure-

ments or for positioning moving objects (e.g. cranes,

building equipment, platforms, etc.) unforeseen

events may cause erroneous measurements.

Precautions:

Only use this product as a measuring sensor, not as

a control device. Your system must be configured and

operated in such a way, that in case of an erroneous

measurement, malfunction of the device or power
