Safety

2.1

General

Any person who is tasked to carry out work with the device must have read and understood the operat-
ing instructions before beginning. Operation and maintenance of the system may only be performed by
trained personnel.
2.2

Electrical Connection

When connecting or when working on the mains voltage, the general safety guidelines are observed,
e.g. when connecting power transformers. Supply voltage can be lethal when touching. Improper instal-
lation can cause serious injury or physical damage. Only qualified personnel are allowed to work with
mains voltage.
1.6

Through-lens Sighting / View Finder

Devices with through lens sighting and temperature range above 1400°C are equipped with an adjusta-
ble eye protection filter in the eyepiece to reduce glare at high measurement temperatures. The unpro-
tected look at temperatures >1400°C can damage the eyes function permanently.
Safety precaution: before looking toward the high temperatures, always first adjust the eyepiece with
help of a replacement light source by turning onto the darkest area. A safe method is the adjustment by
looking at a lamp.
1.7

Responsibility of the Operators

If the device is used in the commercial sector the operator is subject to the legal responsibilities for
workplace safety.
In addition to the safety instructions in this manual follow the regulations of safety, accident prevention
and environmental protection.
