Introduction HL-G1 User's Manual- Areas exposed to vibration or shock at levels higher than those speci-fied (see page 124)- Areas exposed to contact with water- Areas exposed to too much steam or dust The life of the semiconductor laser depends on the ambient temperature.Use the system within the range of the specifications (ambient temperaturefor sensor head: -10°C to 45°C for operation, -20°C to 60°C for storage. Am-bient humidity: 35% to 85% RH). Take appropriate measures, such as the use of a cooling fan, to drop theambient temperature of the sensor head as much as possible if the sensorhead is used close to heat-radiating objects. The sensor head radiates heat as well. Therefore, be sure to install thesensor head in places with as good thermal conductivity as possible. Mountthe sensor head to an aluminum or steel plate with a minimum surface areaof 200cm 2 if the ambient temperature is 40°C or higher. In the case of installing two or more sensor heads in parallel, mount eachsensor head to an aluminum or steel plate with a minimum surface area of200cm2 and make sure that the ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C. Always keep the emitter and receiver of the sensor head clean. Make surethat the emitter and receiver are free of substances that refract light, suchas water, oil, or fingerprints, or surface water, or matters that block light,such as dust and dirt. Clean the emitter and receiver with a soft lint-freecloth or lens cleaning paper. Check that the receiver will not receive direct ambient light the same as thelaser light in wavelength, such as sunlight. Mount an appropriate object,such as a light shield plate, to the sensor head if high accuracy is especiallyrequired.Maintenance Turn OFF the system to stop laser emission before cleaning the system. Molded resin is used in some parts of the system. Do not use organic sol-vents such as paint thinner or benzine to wipe the dirt on the system. Do not wipe the glass portion of the laser aperture too strongly. Scratcheson the glass may cause measurement errors. Always keep the emitter and receiver of the sensor head clean. Make surethat the emitter and receiver are free of substances that refract light, suchas water, oil, fingerprints, surface water, or matters that block light, such asdust and dirt. Inspect the surfaces regularly and always keep them clean. Blow away large particles of dust, if any, using a camera lens blower. To remove small particles of dust or fingerprints, use a soft lens cleaningcloth or lens cleaning paper and lightly wipe them out. Use a cloth moistened with a small amount of alcohol to wipe out tough dirtcarefully.Rugghölzli 2CH - 5453 BusslingenTel. +41 (0)56 222 38 18Fax +41 (0)56 222 10 12mailbox@sentronic.comwww.sentronic.comProdukte, Support und ServiceSENTRONIC AG
