Read the information in this topic carefully before using a Basler Light.

Precautions#

WARNING – Electric Shock and Fire Hazard

Unapproved power supplies may cause electric shock or fire or both. Serious injury or death may occur.

You must use power supplies that meet the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) and Limited Power Source (LPS) or the Electrical Source 1 (ES1) and Power Source 2 (PS2) requirements.
If you use a self-powered hub or power sourcing equipment, it must meet the above requirements.

WARNING – Eye Injury Hazard

Looking directly into the light may cause eye injuries.

Don't look directly into the light.
Light must be switched off before maintenance.
Make sure to wear proper eye protection when using SWIR lights.

WARNING – Fire Hazard

In case of insufficient heat dissipation or when operating the light in strobe mode with excessive duty cycles, the surface temperature may rise above 60 °C (140 °F). This may cause fires.

Ensure sufficient heat dissipation.
Keep light away from flammable materials at all times.

NOTICE – Voltage outside of the specified range may damage the light.

Exceeding the electrical specifications may destroy the light or significantly reduce the lifetime of the LEDs.

NOTICE – Incorrect usage may damage the light.

Only use the light indoors.
Avoid subjecting the light to any mechanical stress during installation or operation.
