Safety Information
4.1
Laser Safety
The LaserAce® Pocket Series is classified as a Class 1 eye safe laser product in compliance with the European
eye safety regulation CENELEC EN60825-1
(2001)
and US federal requirements
(FDA/CDRH)
21 CFR 1040.10
and 1040.11 (except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice no. 50, dated July 2001).
CAUTION!
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures, other than those specified herein, may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Never open the instrument’s housing!
WARNING – Opening the protective housing may result in exposure to Class 3B radiation.
(This caution label is positioned inside the outer housing on the access panel to the laser emitter. It is therefore
only visible by qualified maintenance engineer prior and after access to the laser emitter)
Do not operate evidently damaged instruments!
If the instrument is handled incompetently, the
manufacturers absolve themselves from honouring any guarantee or insurance whatsoever.
Do not unnecessarily look into the transmitter lens of the LaserAce® Pocket Series!
This product is intended for use in a locale where the emitted radiation is unlikely to be viewed with
optical instruments.
Nevertheless,
we recommend that the instrument is not directly pointed at people’s eyes
(especially if they
are using binoculars)
.
Aligning the LaserAce® Pocket Series with the lenses of CCD-cameras or infrared night vision devices can
result in damage to them and is therefore not permitted.
