  5. PoLabs devices may be used in equipment that does not impose a threat to human life in case of the malfunctioning, such as: computer interfaces, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment, audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic equipment, and industrial robots.
  6. Measures such as fail-safe function and redundant design should be taken to ensure reliability and safety when PoLabs devices are used for or in connection with equipment that requires higher reliability, for example: traffic control systems, anti-disaster systems, anticrime systems, safety equipment, medical equipment not specifically designed for life support, and other similar applications.
  7. PoLabs devices shall not be used for or in connection with equipment that requires an extremely high level of reliability and safety, as for example: aircraft systems, aerospace equipment, nuclear reactor control systems, medical equipment or systems for life support (e.g. artificial life support devices or systems), and any other applications or purposes that pose a direct threat to human life.
  8. You should use the PoLabs products described in this document within the range specified by PoLabs, especially with respect to the maximum rating, operating supply voltage range and other product characteristics. PoLabs shall have no liability for malfunctions or damages arising out of the use of PoLabs products beyond such specified ranges.
  9. Although PoLabs endeavors to improve the quality and reliability of its products, semiconductor products have specific characteristics such as the occurrence of failure at a certain rate and malfunctions under certain use conditions. Further, PoLabs products are not subject to radiation resistance design. Please be sure to implement safety measures to guard them against the possibility of physical injury, and injury or damage caused by fire in the event of the failure of a PoLabs product, such as safety design for hardware and software including but not limited to redundancy, fire control and malfunction prevention, appropriate treatment for aging degradation or any other appropriate measures.
  10. Usage: the software in this release is for use only with PoLabs products or with data collected using PoLabs products.

Description

Homing sensors are based on non – mechanical working principle, which makes them highly accurate and repeatable by not having any moving parts. The Sensors have very high accuracy and a very low failure rate. PoLabs – PoHome homing sensor will ensure accuracy in tool changes, job fixtures, homing protocols, automation. The homing sensor is very easy to mount and set in the perfect position on a machine or device. The sensor has LED diodes to indicate the state of the sensor.It is a simple device and it is compatible with most CNC software and hardware.
