OVERVIEW

 

 This product is a compact laser displacement sensor incorporating a digital dis-

play and controller functions.

 

 The standard type has three outputs plus analog outputs (current and voltage out-

puts), thus supporting multi input signals.

 

 The high-function type incorporates serial communications functions in addition to 

the specifications of the standard type, and can be easily controlled by host devices.

 

●  One out of three measurement distances can be selected for each type that sup

-

port both NPN and PNP outputs.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING LASER LIGHT

 

 In order to prevent the accidents by laser product and protect the users, IEC, JIS, 

GB and FDA establish the following standards respectively.

IEC  :  IEC 60825-1

-2007

 (EN 60825-1

-2007

)

JIS  :  JIS C 6802

-2005

GB  :  GB 7247.1

-2012

FDA :  PART 1040(PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR LIGHT-EMITTING 

PRODUCTS)

These standards classifies laser products according to the level of hazard and 

provide the safety measures for respective classes.

Safe under reasonably foreseeable conditions.

 

 WARNING  label

<Label position>

 

 Install the product so the laser beam comes higher or lower than eye level in or-

der not to watch the beam directly during operation.

 

 Please contact Panasonic Industrial Devices SUNX if the system breaks down. It 

is not equipped with a function that stops laser radiation automatically during dis-

assembling the sensor head. The users therefore may be exposed to laser beam 

in disassembling the sensor head.

 

 

Do not use the system in the manner other than specified in this Instruction Manual.
