Laser Safety
2.1
General
The optoNCDT 1900 operates with a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 658 nm (visible/red) or 670 nm (visible/red).
When operating the optoNCDT 1900 sensors, the relevant regulations according to IEC 60825, Part 1 of 05/2014 and the applicable
accident prevention regulations must be followed.
i
If both warning labels are covered over when the unit is installed, the user must ensure that supplementary labels are applied.
Operation of the laser is indicated visually by the LED on the sensor, see Chap.
.
The housing of the optical sensors may only be opened by the manufacturer, see Chap.
.
For repair and service purposes, the sensors must always be sent to the manufacturer.
2.2
Laser Class 2
The sensors fall within laser class 2. The laser is operated on a pulsed mode, the maximum optical power is ≤ 1 mW. The pulse
frequency depends on the adjusted measuring rate (0.25 ... 10 kHz). The pulse duration of the peaks is regulated depending on the
measuring rate and reflectivity of the target and can be 4 up to 3995 µs.
Laser radiation. Close your eyes or immediately turn away if the laser beam hits the eye. Irritation or injury of the
eyes possible.
i
Observe the laser protection regulations.
Although the laser output is low, directly looking into the laser beam must be avoided. Close your eyes or immediately turn away if the
laser beam hits the eye. Lasers of Class 2 are not subject to notification and a laser protection officer is not required.
The following warning labels are attached to the sensor cable:
