Safety Information
Laser Safety
The SP2-XR is a Class 1 Laser Product when fully enclosed. Removing the outer enclosure, or the power monitor
will expose a Class IIIB laser, 1064 nm, with power of approximately 200 mW. Disassembly of the pump laser
can expose a Class 4, 808 nm with power up to 3W. Lasers in this category can cause permanent eye damage
with exposures of 1/100th of a second or more depending on the strength of the laser. A diffuse reflection is
generally not hazardous but specular reflections can be just as dangerous as direct exposure. Protective
eyewear is recommended when direct beam viewing of this class of lasers may occur. Lasers at the high-power
end of this class may also present a fire hazard and can burn skin.
CAUTION
–
Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Strict observance of the following Warning labels is advised.
