Safety
Warnings
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified within this
publication may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Switch off the power supply before carrying out maintenance on the NC4 system.
When using the NC4 system, basic safety precautions must always be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock and personal injury, including the following:
• Read all instructions before operating this product.
• The device must only be installed and used by competent, trained personnel.
• Use eye protection to protect against mechanical hazards, coolant and swarf.
• Avoid inhalation of coolant vapour from the machine tool.
• Do not block the air exiting from the transmitter, receiver or air blast apertures.
• The sound power emitted by the air blast equipment can range from 70.3 dB at 0.3 MPa (43.51 psi)
to 78.2dB at 0.6 MPa (87.02psi). It is the responsibility of the integrator to ensure a suitable noise
assessment is performed when the equipment is put into use.
• Prevent direct exposure of the eyes to the laser beam.
• Ensure that the beam is not reflected into the eyes via any reflective surface.
CAUTION – Laser safety
The laser used in the Renishaw NC4+ Blue non-contact tool setting system emits visible blue light at a
wavelength of 405 nm and has a power output of less than 1 mW.
The NC4 is classified as a Class 2 laser product as defined by BS EN 60825-1:2014
(IEC60825-1:2014).
The product complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to Laser
Notice No. 50 dated June 24, 2007.
BS EN 60825-1:2014 (IEC60825-1:2014) directs to attach a laser war
ning label and explanator
y label.
A warning label and explanatory label are permanently fixed to each side of the transmitter (Tx)
housing (see “Laser safety and warning labels” on page1.3 for details). An adhesive warning label is
provided for attachment outside the machine.
