Chapter 4: Safety Precautions
• Properly dispose of the product and batteries in accordance to the national
regulations. For more information, see
Disposal on page 150.
• Do not use the FARO Laser Scanner and its accessories in an explosive
atmosphere. Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable
gases or fumes. Operation of any electrical instrument in such an
environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.
• Do not use the FARO Laser Scanner in vicinity of strong magnetic or
electrical fields.
• Before operating the FARO Laser Scanner and its accessories in
hazardous areas, please contact the local safety authorities and safety
experts.
•For outdoor use, please use the Power Block battery as the power supply
and ensure that the device is protected from rain or spray water. The
scanner should be used in a non-condensing environment.
• When the product is transferred from a cold to a significantly warmer
environment, water may condense on some elements inside the scanner.
To avoid this, we recommend placing the scanner in an airtight plastic bag
before bringing it from a cold to a significantly warmer environment. This
allows the condensation to form on the bag and not inside the scanner. If
you do not have the possibility to pack the scanner airtight, please wait until
observable condensation water evaporates from the scanner before
switching the FARO Laser Scanner
on.
• Properly dispose of the product and batteries in accordance to the national
regulations.
