2.6 Operational safety and specific hazards
Please observe the safety notes and the warnings listed here and in other sections
of this product documentation to reduce the possibility of risks to health and avoid
dangerous situations.
CAUTION
Optical radiation: Class 2 Laser Product
The human eye is not at risk when briefly exposed to the radiation for up to 0.25
seconds. Exposure to the laser beam for longer periods of time may cause damage to
the retina. The laser radiation is harmless to human skin.
■
Do not look into the laser beam intentionally.
■
Never point the laser beam at people's eyes.
■
If it is not possible to avoid looking directly into the laser beam, e.g., during
commissioning and maintenance work, suitable eye protection must be worn.
■
Avoid laser beam reflections caused by reflective surfaces. Be particularly careful
during mounting and alignment work.
■
Do not open the housing. Opening the housing may increase the level of risk.
■
Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be observed.
Caution – Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
It is not possible to entirely rule out temporary disorienting optical effects, particularly
in conditions of dim lighting. Disorienting optical effects may come in the form of
dazzle, flash blindness, afterimages, photosensitive epilepsy, or impairment of color
vision, for example.
