Section 1
1 Laser Safety
1.1 General Information
The laser light sources used in LMI Sensors are semiconductor lasers emitting visible
light.
LMI Laser Sensors have a 2/ll, 3R/llla or 3B/lllb classification depending on model.
Class 2/ll and 3R/llla sensors are referred to as “products” indicating that they fully
comply with the standards relating to laser products specified in IEC 60825-1 and U.S.
FDA CFR Title 21 Part 1040 except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50,
dated July 26, 2001.
Class 3B/lllb sensors are sold only to qual
ified OEM’s as “components” for incorporation
into their own equipment. The sensors do not incorporate safety items which the OEM is
required to provide in their own equipment (e.g. remote interlocks, key control). As such
these sensors do not fully comply with the standards relating to laser products specified
in IEC 60825-1 and FDA CFR Title 21 Part 1040.
Caution! Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
