Safety instructions
SCOUT55 can be operated either at 230 VAC or 110 VAC, 48...60 Hz mains
voltage.
For adapting the device to the mains voltage, please see chapter 2.3.1 in the
operating manual.
Before connecting the device, make sure that the mains voltage and current
type specified on the name plate correspond to the mains voltage and current
type at the site of installation and that the current circuit used is sufficiently
safe.
An earthed socket must be used for the mains plug (protection class I and II).
Do in no case use the device when the mains line has suffered damage.
Do in any case switch off the device before opening it; disconnect the mains
plug.
The device complies with the safety requirements of DIN EN 61010-part1
(VDE 0411-part1); protection class I. The device has a mains switch. Ensure
that it is easily accessible at any time.
The supply connection, as well as the signal and sense leads, must be
installed in such a way that electromagnetic interference does not adversely
affect device functionality (HBM recommendation: ”Greenline shielding
design”, downloadable from the Internet at http://www.hbm.com/Greenline).
Automation equipment and devices must be covered over in such a way that
adequate protection or locking against unintentional actuation is provided
(such as access checks, password protection, etc.).
When devices are working in a network, these networks must be designed in
such a way that malfunctions in individual nodes can be detected and shut
down.
Safety precautions must be taken both in terms of hardware and software, so
that a line break or other interruptions to signal transmission, such as via the
bus interfaces, do not cause undefined states or loss of data in the
automation device.
Appropriate use
The SCOUT55 with the connected transducers may be used for measurement
and directly related control and regulation tasks, only. Any other use is not
appropriate. To ensure safe operation, the transducer may only be used
according to the specifications given in this manual. It is also essential to
comply with the legal and safety requirements for the application concerned
during use. The same applies to the use of accessories.

Each time, before starting up the equipment, you must first run a project
planning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of
automation technology. This particularly concerns personal and machine
protection.
Additional safety precautions must be taken in plants where malfunctions
could cause major damage, loss of data or even personal injury. In the event
of a fault, these precautions establish safe operating conditions.
This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling,
limit value switches, etc.
Conditions on site
Protect desktop devices from moisture or atmospheric influences such as
rain, snow, etc.
Protect the device from direct sunlight. Ensure sufficient ventilation.
General dangers in the case of non-observance of the safety
instructions
The SCOUT55 complies with the state of the art and is operationally reliable.
If the device is used and operated inappropriately by untrained personnel,
residual dangers might develop.
Any person charged with device installation, operation, maintenance or repair
must in any case have read and understood the operating manual and the
safety instructions, in particular.
Residual dangers
The SCOUT55’s scope of performance and supply covers part of the
measuring-technology, only. The plant designer/constructor/operator must in
addition design, realise and take responsibility for the measuring-system’s
safety such that potential residual dangers are minimized. The respective
regulations must in any case be observed. Residual dangers regarding the
measuringsystem must be specified explicitly.
After making settings and carrying out activities that are password-protected,
you must make sure that any controls that may be connected remain in safe
condition until the switching performance of the amplifier system has been
tested.

In this manual, the following symbols are used to point out residual dangers:
Symbol: DANGER
Meaning: Maximum danger level
Warns of an imminently dangerous situation in which failure to comply with
safety requirements will result in death or serious bodily injury.
Symbol: WARNING
Meaning: Dangerous situation
Warns of a potentially dangerous situation in which failure to comply with
safety requirements can result in death or serious bodily injury.
Symbol: CAUTION
Meaning: Potentially dangerous situation
Warns of a potentially dangerous situation in which failure to comply with
safety requirements could result in damage to property or some form of
bodily injury.

Symbols pointing out notes on use and waste disposal as well as useful
information:
Symbol: NOTE
Points out that important information about the product or its handling is being
given.
Symbol:
Meaning: CE mark
The CE mark enables the manufacturer to guarantee that the product com-
plies with the requirements of the relevant EC directives (the declaration of
conformity is available at http://www.hbm.com/HBMdoc).
Symbol:
Meaning: Statutory marking requirements for waste disposal
National and local regulations regarding the protection of the environment and
recycling of raw materials require old equipment to be separated from regular
domestic waste for disposal.
For more detailed information on disposal, please contact the local authorities
or the dealer from whom you purchased the product.
Safe operation
Do only quit error messages if the reason for the error has been eliminated
and there is no more danger.
Reconstruction and modifications
HBM’s express consent is required for modifications regarding the
SCOUT55’s construction and safety. HBM does not take responsibility for
damage resulting from unauthorized modifications.
In particular, repair and soldering works on the boards are prohibited. If
complete componentry is replaced use original HBM components, only.
The product is delivered from the factory with a fixed hardware and software
configuration. Changes can only be made within the possibilities documented
in the manuals.

Qualified personnel
The device may be used by qualified personnel, only; the technical data and
the special safety regulations must in any case be observed. When using the
device, the legal and safety regulations for the respective application must
also be observed. The same applies if accessories are used.
Qualified personnel means: personnel familiar with the installation, mounting,
start-up and operation of the product, and trained according to their job.
This includes people who meet at least one of the three following
requirements:
−Knowledge of the safety concepts of automation technology is a
requirement and as project personnel, you must be familiar with these
concepts.
−As automation plant operating personnel, you have been instructed how to
handle the machinery and are familiar with the operation of the equipment
and technologies described in this documentation.
−As commissioning engineers or service engineers, you have successfully
completed the training to qualify you to repair the automation systems.
You are also authorized to activate, to ground and label circuits and
equipment in accordance with safety engineering standards.
Maintenance and cleaning
SCOUT55 devices are maintenance-free. Please note the following points
when cleaning the housing:
−Withdraw the mains plug from the socket before carrying out any cleaning.
−Clean the housing with a soft, slightly damp (not wet!) cloth. You should on
no account use solvent, since it may damage the labelling on the front
panel and the indicator box.
−When cleaning, ensure that no liquid gets into the device or connections.
