Safety pictograms

You will find safety symbols on Beckhoff products and packaging. The symbols may be glued, printed, or lasered on and may vary depending on the product. They serve to protect people and to prevent damage to the products. Safety symbols may not be removed and must be legible for the user.

Warning: magnetic field

Magnetic plates contain permanent magnets which constantly generate a strong magnetic field and attract other ferromagnetic objects, even in deenergized state. The high force of magnetic attraction cannot be controlled manually. Prevent direct contact between the magnetic plates and ferromagnetic objects such as assembly trolleys, tools, or machine beds.

Danger due to magnetic fields
Magnetic fields on the magnetic plate can be dangerous for people with cardiac pacemakers or magnetically conductive implants and defibrillators, for example.

Warning: hand injuries
The strong magnetic field of the magnetic plates can cause injuries and crushing of the hands when the magnetic plate is handled or transported. Always use the supplied protective cover outside the machine or system.
