2 Safety information
2.1 Intended use
The Lector61x image-based code reader is an intelligent ID sensor.
The device is used for automatic, stationary identification and decoding of codes on
moving or stationary objects. The device reads all commonly used 1D codes (bar
codes/stacked codes) and 2D codes (matrix codes). The device uses its host interface
to send the read data to a higher-level computer (e.g. PLC) for coordinating further pro‐
cessing.
The device is suitable for industrial and logistics applications that require stable and
fast reading of codes. The device meets the applicable requirements for industrial
robustness, interfaces and data processing.
SICK AG assumes no liability for losses or damage arising from the use of the product,
either directly or indirectly. This applies in particular to use of the product that does not
conform to its intended purpose and is not described in this documentation.
2.1.1 Conditions for specified enclosure rating
To ensure compliance with the specified IP54 enclosure rating of the device during
operation, the following requirements must be met: If these requirements are not met,
the device does not fulfill any specified enclosure rating.
•The two electrical M12 connections must be tightly screwed to the contacted
female connector or male connector.
•The Ethernet connection, if not used, must be sealed with a tightly-fastened pro‐
tective plug (as in the delivery condition).
2.2 Improper use
Any use outside of the stated areas, in particular use outside of the technical specifica‐
tions and the requirements for intended use, will be deemed to be incorrect use.
•The device does not constitute a safety component in accordance with the respec‐
tive applicable safety standards for machines.
•The device must not be used in explosion-hazardous areas, in corrosive environ‐
ments or under extreme environmental conditions.
•The device must not be operated in the temperature range below 0 °C.
•Any use of accessories not specifically approved by SICK AG is at your own risk.

CAUTION
Warning! Optical radiation: LED risk group 1
The LEDs may pose a danger to the eyes and skin in the event of incorrect use.
■Protect the eyes and skin against radiation.
■Use suitable eye protection.
■Use protective measures such as a screen to shield the radiation.
■Do not open the housing. Opening the housing will not switch off the light source.
Opening the housing may increase the level of risk.
■Comply with the current national regulations on photobiological security of lamps
and lamp systems.
Time-of-flight sensor (invisible infrared light, distance measurement in configuration
mode)
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.
For both radiation types:
It is not possible to entirely rule out temporary disorienting optical effects, particularly
in conditions of dim lighting. Disorienting optical effects may come in the form of daz‐
zle, flash blindness, afterimages, photosensitive epilepsy, or impairment of color vision,
for example.
DANGER
Risk of injury due to hot device surface.
The surface of the device can become hot during operation.
•Before performing work on the device (e.g. mounting, cleaning, disassembly),
switch off the device and allow it to cool down.
•Ensure good dissipation of excess heat from the device to the surroundings.
WARNING
