Safety information
Danger of injury through electrical current!
The AM
S
40 connection module (accessory) for the CLV is connected to 230 V 50 Hz or
115 V AC 50/60 Hz supply voltage, depending on the type.
¾
Observe the common safety regulations when working on electrical installations.
Laser radiation may cause damage to your eyes!
The CLV operates with a Class 2 red-light laser. The retina can be damaged if you look
too long into the laser beam.
¾
Never look directly into the laser beam (comparable with sunlight).
¾
Do not point the laser beam at persons.
¾
When mounting and aligning the CLV take the reflection of the laser beam against re-
flecting surfaces into account.
¾
Do not open the housing.
(Opening does not interrupt activation of the laser diode by the reading pulsing.)
¾
Observe the laser protection specifications in accordance with DIN EN 60825-1 (latest
version).
Laser performance
The laser operates with a wavelength of
λ
= 650 nm (visible red light). The power output of
the laser beam amounts to a max. of 3.5 mW at the reading window.
The emitted radiation is not dangerous to the human skin.
Laser warning labels
The laser warning labels relevant for Europe (
) are located at the following points at
the CLV:
•
At the line scanner the British/US version of the laser warning symbol and the laser
warning are located next to the front-end reading window on the side surface (refer to
).
•
At the line scanner with oscillating mirror the British/US version of the laser warning sym-
bol and the laser warning are located on the side surface opposite the reading window
(refer to
Note
The scope of delivery includes a set of laser warnings in German/US English and French/US
English. These can be stuck over the British/US warning.
If the CLV is installed in a machine/casing in such a manner that the laser warning
labels of the device is concealed, further warning labels (not included in the scope of
delivery) must be attached on the machine next to the aperture of the laser beam!
