Safety information
2.2
Intended use
The CLV65x bar code scanner is an intelligent sensor for the automatic recognition and de-
coding of bar codes on objects e.g. in a conveyor system.
The intended use of the bar code system results from the following description of the func-
tion:
•
In a reading station, the bar code scanner is installed in a holder, either on the side of
a conveyor system (side reading) or above it (reading from above).
•
The bar code scanner transfers the reading data via the host interface to a superordi-
nate host computer for further processing.
•
The bar code scanner is configured/operated using the SOPAS-ET configuration soft-
ware that runs on a standard client PC provided by the customer. Communication takes
place using RS-232 or Ethernet.
Important
Any warranty claims against SICK AG shall be deemed invalid in case of changes to the bar
code scanner, such as opening the housing, this includes modifications during installation
and electrical installation or changes to the SICK software.
The bar code scanner is only to be operated in ambient air temperature limit.
2.3
General safety precautions and protection measures
Read the general safety precautions thoroughly and observe them during all bar code
scanner activities. Also observe the warning notices above the operational instructions
of each chapter.
2.3.1
Electrical installation work
Important
Electrical installation must be performed by qualified staff.
Connect or release current linkages only under de-energised conditions.
Wire cross sections and their correct shields have to be selected and implemented accor-
ding to valid engineering standards.
UL certification
The CLV65x bar code scanner is certified according to UL60950-1 with the following requirements:
•
Power supply by LPS or Class-2 power supply unit
•
Use SICK connection cables (category AVL V2 according to UL 758) with a length of up
to 3 m (9.84 ft)
The certification applies for devices with appropriate marking on the type plate. The enclos-
ure rating (IP) is not UL certified.
Risk of injuries due to electrical current!
The optional power supply module CMP400/CMP490 is connected to the power supply
(100 ... 250 V AC/50 ... 60 Hz).
Observe current safety regulations when working with electrical equipment.
