Working safely

Attention Laser Radiation!
If you look into the beam path over a longer time period, the retina of your eye may
be damaged! Never look directly into the beam path! Do not point the laser beam at
persons! When mounting and aligning, avoid reflections of the laser beam off reflec-
tive surfaces!
Adhere to the applicable legal and local regulations regarding protection from laser
beams acc. to IEC 60825 in its latest version.
The scanner window is the only aperture through which light may be observed on this
product. The device must not be tampered with and must not be changed in any way!
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the device.
A failure of the scanner motor while the laser diode continues to emit a laser beam
may cause the emission level limit to be exceeded. The device has safeguards to pre-
vent this occurrence. If, however, a stationary beam is emitted, the failing barcode
reader should be disconnected from its power source immediately.
The BCL 8 uses a laser diode with low power in the visible red light range with an
emitted wavelength of approx. 650nm. The output power of the laser beam at the
reading window is at most 1.3mW acc. to EN 60825-1.The average laser power is less
than 1mW in accordance with laser class 2 acc. to EN 60825-1 and
U.S. 21 CFR 1050.10 with Laser Notice No. 50.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
specified herein may result in hazardous light exposure! The use of optical instru-
ments with the product will increase eye hazard!
Notice!
It is important that you attach the sticky labels supplied to the device (notice signs and laser
emission symbol)! If the signs would be covered due to the installation situation of the BCL 8,
attach them close to the BCL 8 in such a way that reading the notices does not necessitate
looking into the laser beam!
