Mounting and
operating instructions
CAUTION
In the case of strong vibrations (shocks / oscillations), the sensor must be given constructive
protection from damage.
WARNING
• Never look into the path of the laser. Do not suppress the reflex to close the eyelids.
• Gazing into the beam path for longer periods can damage the retina of the eye.
• When mounting the sensor, ensure that the beam path is sealed off at the end.
• The laser must not be directed at people (head height).
• When aligning FT 80 RLA, ensure that there are no reflections on reflective surfaces.
• Should the safety label on the FT 80 RLA sensor be partly covered due to its installation
position, other safety labels are to be positioned on visible parts of the sensor. When applying
the new safety label, make sure that you cannot look into the laser beam whilst reading it.
The FT 80 RLA sensor is now mounted.
