1.3. Laser Description and Safety Information

RETURN DEFECTIVE UNITS TO THE MANUFACTURER.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in haz-
ardous radiation exposure.
Do not attempt to disassemble this sensor for repair. A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer.

1.3.1. Class 2 Laser Models

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.
For Safe Laser Use - Class 2 Lasers
Reference IEC 60825-1:2007, Section 8.2.
Class 2 Lasers
Class 2 lasers are lasers that emit visible radiation in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 700 nm, where eye
protection is normally afforded by aversion responses, including the blink reflex. This reaction may be expected to
provide adequate protection under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical
instruments for intrabeam viewing.
Class 2 Laser Safety Notes
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.

CAUTION
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.
