1. Safety precautions

• Use supply voltage and interfaces indicated in the sensor specifications.

• In connection/disconnection of cables, the sensor power must be switched off.

• Do not use sensors in locations close to powerful light sources.

• To obtain stable results, wait about 20 minutes after sensor activation to

achieve uniform sensor warm-up.

2. Electromagnetic compatibility

The sensors have been developed for use in industry and meet the requirements

of the following standards:

• EN 55022:2006 Information Technology Equipment. Radio disturbance cha-

racteristics. Limits and methods of measurement.

• EN 61000-6-2:2005 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Generic standards.

Immunity for industrial environments.

• EN 61326-1:2006 Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control, and Labor-

atory Use. EMC Requirements. General requirements.

3. Laser safety

The sensors correspond to the following laser safety classes according to IEC

60825-1:2007

3.1. Class 3B sensors.

The sensors make use of an c.w. 660 nm wavelength semiconductor laser. Max-

imum output power is 20 mW. The sensors belong lo the 3B laser safety class. The fol-

lowing warning label is placed on the laser body:

The following safety measures should be taken while operating the sensor:

• Do not target laser beam to humans;

• Avoid staring into the laser beam through optical instruments;

• Mount the sensor so that the laser beam is positioned above or below the

eyes level;

• Mount the sensor so that the laser beam does not fall onto a mirror surface;

• Use protective goggles while operating the sensor;

• Avoid staring at the laser beam going out of the sensor and the beam re-

flected from a mirror surface;

• Do not disassemble the sensor;
