Laser Safety
The scanCONTROL 25xx sensors operate with a semiconductor laser having a wave-
length of 658 nm (visible/red). The laser operation is indicated visually by the LED on
the sensor.
When operating the scanCONTROL 25xx sensors, the relevant regulations according
to IEC 60825, Part 1 of 05/2014 and the applicable accident prevention regulations
must be followed.
Attach the following warning labels to the cover (front side) of the sensor housing. The
laser warning labels for Germany have already been applied. Those for other non Ger-
man-speaking countries an IEC standard label is included in delivery and the versions
applicable to the user’s country must be applied before the equipment is used for the
first time.
i
If the information labels are hidden in the installed state, the user must ensure
that additional labels are fitted at the point of installation.
scanCONTROL 25xx sensors with a maximum laser power up to 8 mW are classified in
Laser Class 2M (IIM). Attach the following warning labels to the cover (front side) of the
sensor housing.

Laser areas must be marked duarably and clearly, if the laser beam runs
through a work or traffic area.
