Safety information
Shock hazard!
Depending on the type of device, the AM
S
60 Connection Module (accessory) for the CLV
is connected to a mains voltage of 230 V AC 50 Hz or 115 V AC 50/60 Hz.
¾
When working with electrical equipment, always follow the relevant safety specifications.
Laser beam can cause blindness!
The CLV uses a class 2 red-light laser. Looking directly at the laser beam can seriously
damage your eyesight.
¾
Never look directly into the path of the beam (similar to sunlight).
¾
Do not direct the laser beam at other persons.
¾
When mounting and aligning the CLV, avoid reflections caused by reflective surfaces.
¾
Do not open the housing.
(Opening the housing does not deactivate the laser diode.)
¾
Observe the most recent laser specifications (DIN EN 60825-1, latest version).
Laser power
The laser operates at a wave length of
λ
= 650 nm (visible red light). The power output at
the reading window is max. 2.8 mW.
The emitted radiation is not dangerous to human skin.
Laser warnings
The laser warning symbols applicable for Europe (
) can be found on the CLV at the
following locations:
•
The laser warning symbol on line scanners is positioned beside the reading window on
the front side of the device. The GB/US laser warning is located on the side containing
the electrical connections (see
.)
•
The laser warning symbol on line scanners with oscillating mirror is located above the
reading window, on the cover of the mirror. The GB/US laser warning is located on the
side containing the electrical connections.
