1.1
WELCOME TO OUR WORLD
Since the very beginning in 1984, ACOEM AB
has helped industries throughout the world to
achieve more profitable and sustainable
production. We have reached where we are
today by having the courage to think beyond
the norm and follow slightly unconventional
paths. We have had the courage to make
mistakes and find new directions. Through our
resolve, ambition and knowledge we have
become a global player and a leader in
innovative, user-friendly measurement tools.
MEAX
As ever-increasing demands are being placed
on machine tools, we have arrived at the
conclusion that an optimally functional
machine forms the basis for better business.
Modern machine tools must maintain a high
level of flexibility, a high degree of utilization
and a minimum downtime which calls for the
correct geometry in all the machine’s
movements.
So, we created MEAX and started to sketch
solutions for machine tool measurements that,
in our opinion, are so self-evident that they
should have been developed a long time ago.
By performing fast measurements,
possessing a logical user interface, smart
applications and fewer complicated functions,
we can now build a future for machine tool
measurement.

3.1
SAFETY
Retain and follow all product safety and
operating instructions. Observe all warnings
on the product and in the operating
instructions.
Failure to observe the safety pre-cautions and
operating instructions can cause bodily injury,
fire, and damage to the equipment.
Do not disassemble, modify or use the
equipment in other ways than explained in the
operating instructions. ACOEM AB will not
accept any liability for such use.
WARNING!
Make sure to fully comply with
all appropriate safety measures
and regulations at worksite and
local regulations regarding
safety in a machine
environment. Do not operate a
machine such as a lathe, if you
have not received safety
instructions and understand
how to use the machine. Take
all appropriate measures to
prevent unintentional start-up of
machines.

3.2
LASER PRECAUTIONS
MEAX Instruments uses laser diodes with a
power output of < 1.0 mW. The laser
classification is Class 2.
Class 2 is considered safe for its intended use
with only minor precautions required.
These are:
• Never stare directly into the laser
transmitter.
• Never shine the laser directly into
anyone else’s eyes.
CAUTION!
USE OF CONTROLS OR
ADJUSTMENTS OR
PERFORMANCE OF
PROCEDURES OTHER THAN
THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN
MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS
RADIATION EXPOSURE.

3.3
Your system complies with the requirements
in:
• IEC-60825-1:2015
• British Standard BS EN 60825-1
• DIN EN 60825-1
USA FDA Standard 21 CFR, Ch 1, Part
1040.10 and 1040.11

3.4
POWER SUPPLY
The MEAX equipment is powered by high-
capacity rechargeable Li-Ion packs mounted
in the display unit and the sensors.
Do not expose the power adapter to rain or
wet conditions.
Always unplug the charger from the electrical
outlet after charging.
Leaving a display unit or a measurement unit
with an empty battery for a prolonged time
can reduce the capacity of the battery or even
damage the battery.
If the system is not used for a long time,
charge the batteries to approximately 50-75%
before storing the system, if kept in storage
repeat this every 3-4 month (if needed).
When used in typical conditions the battery
will sustain good capacity for approximately 2-
3 years before needing replacement. Contact
your sales representative for battery
replacement.
The batteries contain safety circuitry to
operate safely with the display unit and the
sensors. The display unit and the sensors can
therefore only be used with the Li-Ion
batteries supplied by MEAX.
Improper replacement of batteries can cause
damage and risk for personal injury.

3.5
WARNING!
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
SHALL ONLY BE
PERFORMED BY
AUTHORIZED MEAX
REPRESENTATIVES.
USE OF ANY OTHER
BATTERIES THAN THOSE
SUPPLIED BY MEAX WILL
CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO
THE SENSOR AND CAN
CAUSE RISK FOR PERSONAL
INJURY!
Handle any batteries with care. Batteries pose
a burn hazard if handled improperly. Do not
disassemble and keep away from heat
sources. Handle damaged or leaking batteries
with extreme care. Please keep in mind that
batteries can harm the environment. Dispose
of batteries in accordance with local
regulatory guidelines, if in doubt contact your
local sales representative.
Only use the external power adapter supplied
by MEAX for use with the display unit and the
sensors.
Using other power adapters can cause
damage to the unit and personal injury.

3.6
WIRELESS TRANSCEIVER
The MEAX system is fitted with Bluetooth
wireless transceivers.
Make sure that there are no restrictions on the
use of radio transceivers at the site of
operation before using the wireless
transceivers.
WARNING!
Before using the wireless
transceivers make sure that
there are no restrictions on the
use of radio transceivers at the
site. Do not use on aircraft.

4.1
CARE
PACKING THE CASE
Make sure to use the supplied case when
transporting the system.
Calibration certificates are placed behind the
lid foam.

4.2
CLEANING
The system should be cleaned with a cotton
cloth or a cotton bud moistened with a mild
soap solution, except for the detector and
laser window surfaces, which should be
cleaned with alcohol.
For the best possible function, the laser diode
apertures, detector surfaces and connector
terminals should be kept free from grease or
dirt. The display unit should be kept clean and
the screen surface protected from scratches.

4.3
Do not use paper tissue, which can scratch
the detector surface.
Do not use acetone.
