Standard Regulations
This scanner utilizes a low-power laser diode. Although staring directly at the laser beam
momentarily causes no known biological damage, avoid staring at the beam as one would
with any very strong light source, such as the sun.
Avoid that the laser beam hits the eye of an observer, even through reflective surfaces such
as mirrors, etc.
This product conforms to the applicable requirements of both EN60825-1 and
CDRH 21 CFR1040 at the date of manufacture. The reader is classified as a Class 2 laser
product according to EN60825-1 regulations and as a Class II laser product according to
CDRH regulations.
Disconnect the power supply when opening the device during maintenance or installation to
avoid exposure to hazardous laser light.
There is a safety device which allows the laser to be switched on only if the motor is rotating
above the threshold for its correct scanning speed.
WARNING
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous visible laser light
.
The laser light is visible to the human eye and is emitted from the window on the head of the
reader (Figure 1, 7).
