WARNING
Loss of MID conformity after replacing a component
The 2D LiDAR sensors are part of the legal for trade system.
When a component is replaced, the VMS5300 loses its legal-for-trade approval.
▸
After replacing a component, contact the manufacturer.
▸
The manufacturer will arrange for the system to be reverified after the replacement
of a component.
WARNING!
HAZARDOUS LASER RADIATION
The 2D LiDAR sensors of the VMS4300/5300 use a class 2 laser.
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.
▸
Never look directly into the laser beam.
▸
Never point the laser beam at people’s eyes.
▸
During commissioning or maintenance work, suitable eye protection must be worn.
▸
Avoid laser beam reflections caused by reflective surfaces. In particular during
mounting and alignment work.
▸
Do not open the housing.
▸
Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be observed.
