Laser protection
WARNING
Damage to the eye by laser beams
The 2D LiDAR sensors used in the profiling system conform to Class 1 laser (eye-safe)
criteria according to IEC 60825-1 (latest version); see laser warning plate on the device
for publication date. This ensures compliance with 21 CFR 1040.10 except for the
tolerances according to Laser Notice No. 50 of July 26, 2001.
The laser be
am operates at a wavelength of γ = 905
nm (invisible infrared light). The laser
beam is not visible to the human eye.
The radiation emitted in normal operation is harmless to human skin and eyes.
Improper use (e.g., opening the housing and stopping the motor) can result in dangerous
exposure to radiation.
▸
Never open the 2D LiDAR sensor housing. Opening the housing does not interrupt the
operation of the laser beam.
▸
Observe the laser safety regulations as per IEC 60 825Q1 (latest version).
•
No maintenance is required to ensure compliance with laser class 1.
•
The laser output aperture is the inspection window on the 2D LiDAR sensor.
•
The laser warning is located on the right-hand side of the 2D LiDAR sensor.
