Notes to the user
Validity
This guide describes the construction, function, and setup
options for the BOD laser distance sensor. It applies to
types BOD 37M-LA/LB01-S92.
The guide is intended for qualified technical personnel.
Read this guide before installing and operating the sensor.
Always observe the warnings in these instructions and the
measures described to avoid hazards.
Scope of delivery

– Laser warning signs (in two languages)
– User's guide
Laser class 2
BOD 37M photoelectric distance sensors meet the
requirements of safety standard
IEC 60825-1:1993+A2:2001 for class 2 laser products. In
addition, they meet the directives as per
U.S. 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 for class II laser
products with the exception of the deviations described in
the document "Laser Notice No. 50" dated June 24, 2007.
Radiated power
The BOD 37M uses a laser diode with a low output in the
visible light spectrum. The emitted wavelength is 658 nm.
The peak output of the laser beam is 1 mW.
More detailed information on the guidelines,
approvals, and standards is included in the
declaration of conformity.
Safety
Intended use
BOD series photoelectric distance sensors are intelligent,
adjustable sensors for measuring distances.
Non-approved use
These sensors may not be used in applications where
personal safety depends on proper function of the devices
(not designed in accordance with EU Machinery Directive).
Examples of non-approved use include rooms with
explosive atmospheres and operation for medical
purposes.
Opening the sensor or non-approved use are not
permitted and will result in the loss of warranty and liability
claims against the manufacturer.
General safety notes
Installation, startup, and maintenance may only be
performed by trained specialists with basic electrical
knowledge. Qualified personnel are those who can
recognize possible hazards and institute the appropriate
safety measures due to their professional training,
knowledge, and experience as well as their understanding
of the relevant regulations pertaining to the work to be
done.
Repairs may only be performed by the manufacturer or an
authorized representative.
Do not attempt to make changes to the device or to
modify it in any way.

Safety (continued)
The operator is responsible for ensuring that local safety
regulations are observed.
In particular, the operator must take steps to ensure that a
defect in the sensor will not result in hazards to persons or
equipment.
If defects and unresolvable faults occur in the sensor, it
should be taken out of service and secured against
unauthorized use.
Laser protection regulations
The emitter features a class 2 red laser as
per EN 60825-1 (2007/03).
DANGER
Eye injuries
Looking into the light beam over an extended period of
time can damage the retina beyond repair.
► Never look directly into the light beam!
► Do not aim the BOD 37M laser beam at people!
► When assembling and aligning the BOD 37M,
prevent laser beam reflections due to reflective
surfaces!
Use of photoelectric instruments or devices in
conjunction with the device increases the risk of damage
to the eyes!
► Observe all relevant legal and operational
requirements with regard to eye protection from laser
radiation in accordance with the latest version of
EN 60825-1!
The glass front panel is the only opening through which
laser radiation can escape from the device. The BOD
housing is sealed and does not feature any components
that have to be set or maintained by the user. The device
must not be altered or changed in any way! Breaking the
seal renders the warranty null and void!
Protect the sensor from mechanical damage.
Note:
A laser warning sign in the appropriate language
must be applied directly to or near the sensor.
This sign must be readable at all times without
causing the operator to look into the laser
beam!
File no.
