Safety precautions
NOTE! Opening the laser units can result in hazardous radiation, and will invalidate the manufacturer warranty.
If starting the machine to be measured would result in injuries, the possibility to unintentionally start it must be disabled before mounting the equipment, for example by locking the switch in the off position or removing the fuses. These safety precautions should remain in place until the measurement equipment has been removed from the machine.
These products are intended for professional use, measurement according to the manual, performed by specially trained personnel.
If these products are not used as intended, the protection provided by the devices may be impaired.
NOTE! The system must not be used in explosive risk areas.
Laser safety
Easy-Laser® is a laser instrument in laser class 2 which requires the following safety precautions:
- Never stare directly into the laser beam
- Never aim the laser beam at anyone’s eyes
This User Manual contains information about laser safety according to standard EN 60825-1:2014+A11:2021 and 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for conformance with IEC 60825-1 Ed. 3., as described in Laser Notice No. 56, dated May 8, 2019.
The information enables the person responsible for the product and the person who actually uses the equipment, to anticipate and avoid operational hazards.
According to EN 60825-1:2014+A11:2021 and 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11, products classified as laser class 2 do not require:
- laser safety officer involvement
- protective clothes and eyewear
- special warning signs in the laser working area
if used and operated as defined in this User Manual due to the low eye hazard level.
National laws and local regulations could impose more stringent instructions for the safe use of lasers.
It may be hazardous to look directly into the beam, in particular for deliberate exposure. The beam may cause strong temporary blindness, especially under low ambient light conditions. However, the risk of injury for Class 2 laser products is very low because:
- The exposure limits for the laser class include a safety margin, which means that the limits are substantially below those levels of radiation that are known to cause damage.
- The natural reflex of the eye to avoid strong light limits unintentional exposure to a very short time (0.25 s).
The following warning symbols are used to indicate Class 2 laser products.
The following warning symbol indicates the aperture where laser light is emitted. Avoid exposure to the eyes.
If the laser beam hits the detector but the system is unable to measure, it could be caused by a laser malfunction and the laser light may be above safe power level.
If this is the case, don't use the system until you have been in contact with your local service center.
Travelling with your measurement system
The system includes lithium-batteries. For more information see the product specifications in Technical data. When travelling by airplane with your measurement system we strongly recommend that you check which rules that apply for each airline company.
