Security Advice, Handling Rules & Package Content
1.1 Security Advice
• The DESKO PENTA Scanner family contains UV-A and IR light sources which are classified as
CLASS 1M LED PRODUCT according to IEC 60825-1.
That means that the light sources radiate intense invisible UV-A from IR light during the scan
process. Consequently, precautions must be taken to prevent looking directly at the UV-A and
IR light. Note that UV-A is an optional light source and might not be installed in every unit.
• Make sure that there is an easily-accessible outlet in the vicinity, where the device is to be
installed
• Do not open the housing of the device and do not modify the device in any way.
• The device contains a backup battery for a Real-Time Clock (RTC), which is not accessible
without opening the housing. Battery replacement must only be undertaken by trained service
staff.
Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions.
