Safety Precautions
•
Use supply voltage and interfaces indicated in the sensor specifications
•
In connection/disconnection of cables, the sensor power must be switched
off
•
Do not use sensors in locations close to powerful light sources
•
To obtain stable results, wait about 20 minutes after sensor activation to
achieve uniform sensor warm-up
CE compliance
The sensors have been developed for use in industry and meet the requirements
of the following Directives:
•
EU directive 2014/30/EU. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
•
EU directive 2011/65/EU, “RoHS“category 9.
Laser safety
The sensors make use of a c.w. 660 nm (or 405 nm, 450 nm) wavelength
semiconductor laser. The maximum output power is 0.95 mW. The sensors
belong to the 2 laser safety class. The following warning label is placed on the
sensor body:
The following safety measures should be taken while operating the sensor:
•
Do not target the laser beam to humans;
•
Do not disassemble the sensor;
•
Avoid staring into the laser beam.
General information
The sensors are intended for non-contact measuring and checking of position,
displacement, dimensions, surface profile, deformation, vibrations, sorting and
sensing of technological objects as well as for measuring levels of liquid and bulk
materials.
