2.7 Operational safety and particular hazards
Please observe the safety notes and the warnings listed here and in other chap‐
ters of this product documentation to reduce the possibility of risks to health and
avoid dangerous situations.
CAUTION
Optical radiation: Laser class 1
The accessible radiation does not pose a danger when viewed directly for up
to 100 seconds. It may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in the event of
incorrect use.
•Do not open the housing. Opening the housing may increase the level of
risk.
•Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be
observed.
Caution – Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
WARNING
Electrical voltage!
Electrical voltage can cause severe injury or death.
•Work on electrical systems must only be performed by qualified electri‐
cians.
•The power supply must be disconnected when attaching and detaching
electrical connections.
•The product must only be connected to a voltage supply as set out in the
requirements in the operating instructions.
•National and regional regulations must be complied with.

plied with.
WARNING
Risk of injury and damage caused by potential equalization currents!
Improper grounding can lead to dangerous equipotential bonding currents,
which may in turn lead to dangerous voltages on metallic surfaces, such as
the housing. Electrical voltage can cause severe injury or death.
•Work on electrical systems must only be performed by qualified electri‐
cians.
•Follow the notes in the operating instructions.

“Edge” detection application
•Measure the edge position relating to the measuring range center of the light
band with leading edge detection see AOD1 device display and OL1, page 2.
•When more than one edge is in the measuring range, the device cannot
measure and show the value 9.999 (background remains black).
“Edge” detection application for transparent objects
NOTE
Safe edge detection is not guaranteed for very transparent objects (above
approx. 80% transmission).
•The function works the same as for edge detection of non-transparent
objects.
•The “Adjusted” value must be set in the “Sensitivity” setting for edge detec‐
tion of transparent objects. For optimal sensitivity adjustment, there must be
no measuring object between the sender and the receiver see OL1 “Setup
mode” configuration menu, page 2 .
•The direction from which the object protrudes into the measuring range must
be specified in the "Measure polarity" menu item see “Measure polarity”
direction function, page 3.
“Width” and diameter measurement application
•Measures the distance between two edges.
•In this measurement type, the device shows the measured value of
0.000 mm to 9.999 mm.
•The device distinguishes between light-dark and dark-light edges. Then the
width function can measure both the width and the gap.
•In “Width” mode, there must always be exactly two edges inside the measur‐
ing range. If there are more than two edges inside the measuring range, the
output measured values are not specified.
•If there is no or only one edge in the measuring range, the device shows an
alarm or “cannot be measured”.
•The direction function (Measure polarity) does not work for width mea‐
surement.

8 Cleaning
NOTICE
Equipment damage due to improper cleaning.
Improper cleaning may result in equipment damage.
•Only use recommended cleaning agents and tools.
•Never use sharp objects for cleaning.
Clean the front screen at regular intervals and in the event of contamination
using a lint-free lens cloth (part no. 4003353) and plastic cleaning agent
(part no. 5600006). The cleaning interval essentially depends on the ambi‐
ent conditions.
