optoNCDT 2300
Proper Use
The optoNCDT 2300 system is designed for use in industrial and laboratory areas.
It is used for measuring displacement, distance, position and elongation for in-process quality con-
trol and dimensional testing
The sensor may only be operated within the limits specified in the technical data, see instruction
manual, Chap. 3.4. Use the sensor in such a way that in case of malfunctions or failure personnel or
machinery are not endangered.
Take additional precautions for safety and damage prevention for safety-related applications.
Warnings
Avoid unnecessary laser radiation to be exposed to the human body. Switch off the sensor for clean-
ing and maintenance, for system maintenance and repair if the sensor is integrated into a system.
Caution - use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
may cause harm.
Connect the power supply and the display-/output device in accordance with the safety regulations
for electrical equipment. The power supply may not exceed the specified limits.
> Danger of injury. Damage to or destruction of the sensor.
Avoid continuous exposure to fluids on the sensor. Avoid exposure to aggressive materials (washing
agent, penetrating liquids or similar) on the sensor.
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor.
Avoid shock and vibration to the sensor. Protect the sensor cable against damage.
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor , failure of the measuring device.
Laser Class
The optoNCDT 2300 sensors operate with a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 670 nm (vis-
ible/red ILD 2300-x) resp. 405 nm (visible/blue ILD 2300-xBL).
The following warning labels are attached to the cover (front and/or rear side) of the sensor housing:

Sensor Mounting, Diffuse Reflection
The optoNCDT 2300 sensor is an optical system for measurements with micrometer accuracy.
i
Make sure it is handled carefully when installing and operating!
Mount the sensor only to the existing holes on a flat surface. Clamps of any kind are not
permitted.
Mount the sensor by means of 3 screws type M4. The bearing surfaces surrounding the
fastening holes (through-holes) are slightly raised.
