Danger notes and operational safety
Laser irradiation
The following notes must be observed and complied with for your own
safety:
CAUTION!
Optical radiation: Laser class 2
The human eye is not at risk when briefly exposed to the
radiation for up to 0.25 seconds. Exposure to the laser
beam for longer periods of time may cause damage to
the retina. The laser radiation is harmless to human skin.
• Do not look into the laser beam intentionally.
• Never point the laser beam at people’s eyes.
• If it is not possible to avoid looking directly into
the laser beam, e.g., during commissioning and
maintenance work, suitable eye protection must be
worn.
•
Avoid laser beam reflections caused by reflective
surfaces. Be particularly careful during mounting and
alignment work.
• Do not open the housing. Opening the housing will not
switch off the laser. Opening the housing may increase
the level of risk.
• Current national regulations regarding laser protection
must be observed.
