Class 2 Laser Description and Safety Information
CAUTION:
• Return defective units to the manufacturer.
• Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
• Do not attempt to disassemble this sensor for repair. A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer.
CAUTION:
• Never stare directly into the sensor lens.
• Laser light can damage your eyes.
• Avoid placing any mirror-like object in the beam. Never use a mirror as a retroreflective target.
Class 2 lasers are lasers that emit visible radiation in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 700 nm, where eye protection is normally afford-
ed by aversion responses, including the blink reflex. This reaction may be expected to provide adequate protection under reasonably fore-
seeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing.
Low-power lasers are, by definition, incapable of causing eye injury within the duration of a blink (aversion response) of 0.25 seconds. They
also must emit only visible wavelengths (400 to 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard may exist only if individuals overcome their natural
aversion to bright light and stare directly into the laser beam.

For Safe Laser Use - Class 2 Lasers
• Do not stare at the laser.
• Do not point the laser at a person's eye.
• Mount open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical.
• Terminate the beam emitted by the laser product at the end of its useful path.
