Safety advice
2.1
Basic safety advice
Please read the safety and operating advice carefully, and observe the advice when
operating the LDM52 OEM laser distance measurement device.
Danger, laser radiation
The LDM52 OEM must not be taken apart unauthorized, otherwise laser radiation
can be emitted that can cause injuries to the eyes. Please observe all information
and guidelines for operating the laser.
Danger, electric shock
The LDM52 OEM may only be opened for repair purposes by the manufacturer. If
the device is opened arbitrarily without authorization, all warranty claims will ex-
pire.
The operating and storage conditions (see chapter 9) have to be observed. The
non-observance of this advice and the adverse use of the device can lead to inju-
ries of the user or to damage of the device.
Connectors may not be plugged or unplugged when voltage is applied. All installa-
tion work may only be carried out when no voltage is applied.
The device may only be operated as intended and in faultless condition.
Safety installations must not be rendered ineffective.
Safety and warning signs must not be removed.
The device is not shatter-proof. Do not let the device fall onto the ground, and
avoid any agitation.
The device may not be used in explosive environments; otherwise there is the dan-
ger of damage to the LDM52 OEM and the surrounding equipment, and of injuries
of the user.
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device.
Electrostatic charges readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment
and can discharge without detection. Although the circuits features proprietary
ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to
high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recom-
mended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
Improper handling leads to the loss of warranty.
