The following information label should be fitted to the sensor housing (front and back):
IEC label
Only for USA
The laser labels for Germany are already printed on. The labels for the EU area and the
USA are enclosed and must be fitted by the user for the region applicable in each case
before the equipment is put into operation.

Laser Class 3B
Sensors with a maximum laser power up to 50 mW (see Chap. "Technical Data") are
classified in Laser Class 3B (IIIB).
Accordingly, the following applies:
The available laser radiation is hazardous for the eyes and usually for the skin also.
Looking directely into the laser beam is hazardous for the eyes. Also reflections on
shining or mirroring surfaces can be hazardous the eye.
Hazards to the skin through the available laser radiation is given by class 3B (IIIB) laser
equipments if the values of the maximum permissible exposure are exceeded.
The user is responsible that the accident prevention regulations are observed.
Class 3B (IIIB) laser sensors are notifiable and a laser protection officer is required
either. Mark the laser area recognizable and everlasting. During operation the laser area
has to be restricted and marked.
If the sensor is on the laser output can be reduced to 15 mW with the software. Reducing
the laser output to 1 mW is not possible.
Reducing the laser output from 50 mW to 15 mW with a software affects not the
laser class!
