Precautions
Observe these precautions when installing the Cognex product, to reduce the risk of
injury or equipment damage:
l The vision system is intended to be supplied by a UL or NRTL listed power
supply with a 24VDC output rated for at least 2A continuous and a
maximum short circuit current rating of less than 8A and a maximum power
rating of less than 100VA and marked Class 2 or Limited Power Source
(LPS). Any other voltage creates a risk of fire or shockand can damage the
components. Applicable national and local wiring standards and rules must
be followed.
l To reduce the risk of damage or malfunction due to over-voltage, line noise,
electrostaticdischarge (ESD), power surges, or other irregularities in the
power supply, route allcables and wires away from high-voltage power
sources.
l Do not install Cognex products where they are directly exposed to
environmental hazards such as excessive heat, dust, moisture, humidity,
impact, vibration, corrosive substances, flammable substances, or static
electricity.
l Do not expose the image sensor to laser light; image sensors can be
damaged by direct, or reflected, laser light. If your application requires the
use of laser light that may strike the image sensor, a lens filter at the
corresponding laser's wavelength is recommended. Contact your local
integrator or application engineer for suggestions.
l Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for regulatory compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
l Service loops should be included with all cable connections.
