2.7 Operational safety and particular hazards

Please observe the safety notes and the warnings listed here and in other chap‐

ters of this product documentation to reduce the possibility of risks to health and

avoid dangerous situations.

CAUTION

Optical radiation: Laser class 1

The accessible radiation does not pose a danger when viewed directly for up

to 100 seconds. It may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in the event of

incorrect use.

Do not open the housing. Opening the housing may increase the level of

risk.

Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be

observed.

Caution – Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other

than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

WARNING

Electrical voltage!

Electrical voltage can cause severe injury or death.

Work on electrical systems must only be performed by qualified electri‐

cians.

The power supply must be disconnected when attaching and detaching

electrical connections.

The product must only be connected to a voltage supply as set out in the

requirements in the operating instructions.

National and regional regulations must be complied with.

Safety requirements relating to work on electrical systems must be com‐

plied with.

WARNING

Risk of injury and damage caused by potential equalization currents!

Improper grounding can lead to dangerous equipotential bonding currents,

which may in turn lead to dangerous voltages on metallic surfaces, such as

the housing. Electrical voltage can cause severe injury or death.

Work on electrical systems must only be performed by qualified electri‐

cians.

Follow the notes in the operating instructions.
