2.9 Safety information's
Eye injury from laser radiation!
-
The measuring system functions with a red light laser Class 2. In the
case of Class 2 laser devices, the eye is not endangered if the exposure
to the laser radiation is very brief (up to 0.25 s) and accidental. For this
reason, devices of this class can be used without additional protective
measures, provided the application does not require one to look into the
laser beam deliberately for longer periods, i.e. 0.25 s, or to look
repeatedly into the laser beam or the reflected laser beam.
The existence of the blinking reflex for the protection of the eyes may
not be assumed. Therefore eyes should be closed consciously, or
the head should be turned away immediately!
-
The measuring system must be installed in such a way that the
exposure of persons to the laser beam can only occur accidentally.
-
The laser beam must only extend as far as is necessary for the range
measurement. The beam must be limited at the end of the useful range
by a target area in such a way as to minimize the danger from direct or
diffuse reflection.
-
The area outside the operating range where the unshielded laser beam
falls should be limited as far as possible and should remain out of
bounds, particularly in the area above and below eye level.
-
Heed the laser safety regulations according to DIN EN 60825-1 in their
most current version.
-
Observe the legal and local regulations applicable to the operation of
laser units.
