Necessary safety measures
DANGER
Serious eye or skin injury due to laser radiation
The device measures direct laser radiation, but does not emit any radiation itself. However, during
the measurement the laser beam is reflected from the rotating measuring tip.
This produces scattered or directed reflection of the laser beam (laser class 4). Depending on the
wavelength of the laser, the reflected beam is usually invisible.
X During a measurement, a safety distance of one meter to the device must be maintained even
when wearing safety goggles and safety clothing.
X Protect yourself from direct and reflected laser radiation while working with the device by taking
the following measures:
•
Wear safety goggles adapted to the power, power density, laser wavelength and operating mode of the
laser beam source in use.
•
Wear suitable protective clothing or protective gloves if necessary.
•
If possible, also protect yourself from direct laser radiation and scattered radiation by using separating
protective devices that block or attenuate the radiation.
•
If the device is moved from its aligned position, increased scattered or directed reflection of the laser
beam occurs during measuring operation. Mount the device in such a way that it cannot be moved unin-
tentionally, e.g. by bumping or pulling the cables
•
Install safety switches or emergency safety mechanisms that allow the laser to be switched off immediately.
•
Use suitable beam guidance and beam absorber elements which do not emit any hazardous substances
when irradiated.
Employing qualified personnel
The device may only be operated by qualified personnel. The qualified personnel must have been instructed
in the installation and operation of the device and must have a basic understanding of working with high-
power lasers, beam guiding systems and focusing units.
Modifications and changes
The device may not be modified in terms of design or safety without the explicit consent of the manufacturer.
The same applies to unauthorized opening, dismantling and repair. The removal of covers is only permitted
within the scope of the intended use.
Liability disclaimer
Manufacturer and distributor exclude any liability for damages and injuries which are direct or indirect con-
sequences of using the device not as intended or modifying the device or the associated software without
authorization.
