If not in use, the sensor must always be stored with the protection tube put on it.

Risk through exposure to magnetic fields

Within a distance of 15 cm, the sensor creates static magnetic fields of

up to 1 mTesla.

Pacemakers

Patients with heart pacemakers should consult their doctor to clarify

whether using the magnetic sensor may imply any health risk for them.

Magnetic data carriers

The magnetic field created y the sensor may impair the operability of

magnetic data carriers, electronic devices and all kinds of encoded
