Laser Safety
The FS22 - Industrial BraggMETER DI interrogator contains a laser in its core. A laser is a
light source that can be dangerous to people exposed to it. Even low power lasers can be
hazardous to a person's eyesight. The coherence and low divergence of laser light means
that it can be focused by the eye into an extremely small spot on the retina, resulting in
localized burning and permanent damage.
The lasers are classified by wavelength and maximum output power into the several
safety classes: Class 1, Class 1M, Class 2, Class 2M, Class 3R and Class 4.
