2 Safety

This bar code reader was developed, manufactured and tested in accordance with the applicable safety

standards. It corresponds to the state of the art.

2.1 Intended use

Bar code readers of the BCL92 series are conceived as stationary scanners with integrated decoder for all

current bar codes used for automatic object detection.

Areas of application

Bar code readers of the BCL92 series are designed for the following areas of application:

• Automatic analyzers

• Robotics and automation technology

• Material flow

• Labeling and packaging machines

• For space-critical bar code reading tasks

• Applications with large reading field with small modules

CAUTION

Observe intended use!

The protection of personnel and the device cannot be guaranteed if the device is operated in a

manner not complying with its intended use.

ÄOnly operate the device in accordance with its intended use.

ÄLeuzeelectronicGmbH+Co.KG is not liable for damages caused by improper use.

ÄRead these operating instructions before commissioning the device. Knowledge of the oper-

ating instructions is an element of proper use.

NOTICE

Comply with conditions and regulations!

ÄObserve the locally applicable legal regulations and the rules of the employer's liability insur-

ance association.

CAUTION

UL applications!

For UL applications, use is only permitted in LPS/Class 2 circuits in accordance with the NEC

(National Electric Code).

Safety

Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 92 8

2.2 Foreseeable misuse

Any use other than that defined under "Intended use" or which goes beyond that use is considered im-

proper use.

In particular, use of the device is not permitted in the following cases:

• in rooms with explosive atmospheres

• in circuits which are relevant to safety

• for medical purposes

NOTICE

Do not modify or otherwise interfere with the device!

ÄDo not carry out modifications or otherwise interfere with the device. The device must not be

tampered with and must not be changed in any way.

ÄThe device must not be opened. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

ÄRepairs must only be performed by Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG.

NOTICE

ÄTo increase the decoding reliability, it is recommended that only the actually needed code

types be enabled.

ÄIf there are very high requirements on reading reliability, the use of additional processes is

recommended, e.g.:

ðDevice side: check digits, multiple evaluation by setting Equal Scans to min. ≥2

ðApplication side: reading moving codes

ðSystem side: plausibility checks of the bar code information

2.3 Competent persons

Connection, mounting, commissioning and adjustment of the device must only be carried out by competent

persons.

Prerequisites for competent persons:

• They have a suitable technical education.

• They are familiar with the rules and regulations for occupational safety and safety at work.

• They are familiar with the operating instructions for the device.

• They have been instructed by the responsible person on the mounting and operation of the device.

Certified electricians

Electrical work must be carried out by a certified electrician.

Due to their technical training, knowledge and experience as well as their familiarity with relevant standards

and regulations, certified electricians are able to perform work on electrical systems and independently de-

tect possible dangers.

In Germany, certified electricians must fulfill the requirements of accident-prevention regulations DGUV

(German Social Accident Insurance) provision 3 (e.g. electrician foreman). In other countries, there are re-

spective regulations that must be observed.

3 Device description

3.1 Device overview

3.1.1

About the bar code reader

The bar code reader is a laser scanner with integrated decoder for all commonly used bar codes, e.g.

2/5Interleaved, Code39, Code128, EAN etc.

• The reading field is optimized for the reading of sample tubes, reagent containers, etc., in laboratory

automation.

• Reliable reading of 80 mm high code labels at a short distance.

• Due to the small dimensions of the unit and the variants with frontal or lateral beam exit, the bar code

reader can also be used in highly constrained spaces.

• The many possible configurations of the device allow it to be adapted to a multitude of reading tasks.

• Information on technical data and characteristics: see chapter 12 "Technical data".

3.1.2

Stand-alone operation

The bar code reader is operated as a "stand-alone" single device. The electrical connection of the operat-

ing voltage, the interface and the switching input is made via a 12-pin M12 connector or via a 15-pin Sub-D

connector.

3.2 Performance characteristics

• Laser scanner with integrated decoder; lateral or frontal beam exit

• High-resolution optics

• Resolution 0.165mm…0.5mm

Reading of all common codes of module size 165…500μm (6.5…20mil) at a reading field height of

≥80mm, even with a reading distance of 25 mm for devices with lateral beam exit

• Reading distance 25mm…260mm

• Scanning rate of 600scans/s facilitates reliable reading, even while in motion

• Compact design for simple integration, even in constrained spaces

• Two switching inputs and two switching outputs

• Sturdy diecast zinc housing

• Connection cable 0.8m or 3m with Sub-D connector, 15-pin

• Connection cable 0.8m with M12 connector, 12-pin
