GENERAL SAFETY
EN 61010-1
LMS-Q280i
meets or exceeds the requirements of the following European
Standard:
EN 61010-1
(April 1993)
Safety requirements for electrical
equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use
Part 1:
General
Requirements
Temperature:
Note the following explanations and important instructions:
See chapter 5 Specifications for temperature limits for storage
and operation.
Storage and operation at temperatures outside the specified
temperature ranges may cause wrong measurement results or
even damage of the instrument.
Sunlight:
The
LMS-Q280i
makes use of the optical time-of-flight
technique to determine the distance to the object. For this
purpose it comprises sensitive optical, electrical and
mechanical components. Thus the
LMS-Q280i
requires
appropriate handling:
Unnecessary exposure of the internal optical and electronic
parts to direct sunlight via the front window should be
avoided.
Altitude:
The unit is specified for an altitude up to 2000m (operation or
storage).
Relative
Humidity:
The unit is specified for a relative humidity of 80% at or below
+31°C; linearly decreasing to 50% at +40°C.
Enclosure:
The instrument
LMS-Q280i
is water resistant on the outside
but must not however be subjected to rain or dripping water or
submerged under water.
The optical glass panes should be treated with the care
customarily due to optical instruments and, only when
absolutely necessary, should they be gently cleaned using a
suitable lens cleaning fluid (e.g. pure ethylene alcohol).
Never apply mechanical force or shock to the glass panes
or to the housing itself!
As with other optical instruments, the
LMS-Q280i
should be
protected from being shaken or knocked.
