Potential hazardous points
Laser protection
WARNING
Damage to the eye by laser beams
The 2D LiDAR sensors used in the profiling system conform to Class 1 laser (eye-safe)
criteria according to IEC 60825-1 (latest version); see laser warning plate on the device
for publication date. This ensures compliance with 21 CFR 1040.10 except for the
tolerances according to Laser Notice No. 50 of July 26, 2001.
The laser beam operates at a wavelength of γ = 905
nm (invisible infrared light). The laser
beam is not visible to the human eye.
The radiation emitted in normal operation is harmless to human skin and eyes.
Improper use (e.g., opening the housing and stopping the motor) can result in dangerous
exposure to radiation.
▸
Never open the 2D LiDAR sensor housing. Opening the housing does not interrupt the
operation of the laser beam.
▸
Pay attention to the laser safety regulations as per IEC
60 8251 (l
atest version).
•
No maintenance is required to ensure compliance with laser class 1.
•
The laser output aperture is the inspection window on the 2D LiDAR sensor.
•
The laser warning is located on the right-hand side of the 2D LiDAR sensor.
Electrical current
DANGER
Risk of injury and damage caused by electrical current
Improper handling of live devices may lead to severe personal injury or death by electric
shock!
▸
Electrical installation and maintenance work must always be carried out by personnel
authorized to do so.
▸
Be sure to disconnect the voltage supply before attaching or detaching any electrical
connections.
▸
Select and implement wire cross-sections and their correct fuse protection in
accordance with the applicable standards.
▸
Do not touch any live parts.
▸
In the event of danger, immediately disconnect the profiling system from the voltage
supply.
▸
Always use original fuses with the specified current rating.
▸
Report any damaged cables to the maintenance team without delay.
▸
Observe the current safety regulations when working on electrical systems.
