2.9 Specific dangers
Specific dangers can arise during operation of the product:
• Dangers from electrical energy
• Dangers from laser radiation
• Dangers from gas and particle emissions
2.9.1 Electrical energy
The product must be connected to a sufficient power supply for opera-
tion.
The system owner must ensure that the power supply is in flawless
condition.
The isolations and connections of all electrical supply lines must be un-
damaged.
The protective earth conductor (PE) may not be interrupted at any
point.
Work on electrical components may only be performed by qualified
electricians. For all work on electrical components, the five safety rules
must be followed:
• Disconnect
• Secure against reconnection
• Verify absence of voltage
• Ground and short-circuit
• Cover or cordon off nearby parts still under voltage.
2.9.2 Laser radiation
The product emits energy-intensive radiation with a power level in the
kW range and a wavelength of approximately 1068 nm.
The precise specifications of the laser power and wavelength can be
found in the supplied technical data.
The danger from laser radiation arises from:
• direct laser radiation
• reflected laser radiation
• scattered laser radiation
Information on important safety measures for working with laser radia-
tion can be found in your regional accident prevention regulations.
These regulations make reference to the harmonized standard EN
60825-1, which exists internationally as the standard IEC 60825-1.
