3.3.3.6 Safety hazard due to openings at microscope
Make sure, as part of your risk assessment, that all open-
ings at the microscope are tightly sealed and can only be
opened with tools to prevent laser radiation from escaping!
The openings to consider, for example: top port next to the
eyepieces, left and right side port, bottom port, infinity port,
connection for Transmitted Light lamp housing at the arm,
lamp connection for fluorescence/connection for incident
light lamp housing, cover for fluorescent turret disk.
The material that is used to seal off the openings has to be
suitable for the intensity of the coupled laser beam.
