Thorlabs is not responsible for any radio television interference caused by modifications of this
equipment  or  the  substitution  or  attachment  of  connecting  cables  and  equipment  other  than
those specified by Thorlabs. The correction of interference caused by such unauthorized modi-
fication, substitution or attachment will be the responsibility of the user. 

The use of shielded I/O cables is required when connecting this equipment to any and all op-
tional peripheral or host devices. Failure to do so may violate FCC and ICES rules.

 Attention 

Mobile  telephones,  cellular  phones  or  other  radio  transmitters  are  not  to  be  used  within  the
range of three meters of this unit since the electromagnetic field intensity may then exceed the
maximum allowed disturbance values according to IEC 61326-1.

This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits according to IEC 61326-1 for
using connection cables shorter than 3 meters (9.8 feet).

5.7   Warning Labels

 Warning 

 

Inappropriate  use  of  any  High-Power  LED  product  may  result  in  permanent  eye  damage.  To
prevent injury, use this product in accordance with the International Standard “Photobiological
Safety of Lamps & Lamp Systems” IEC 62471. This  LED  falls  under  Risk  Group  RG3  –  High
Risk Group in accordance to the standard IEC 62471:2006. 

UV/Vis/IR Warning Statement

The Chrolis may emit intense UV, Vis or IR radiation during operation, depending on the LEDs
used. Precautions must be taken to prevent looking directly at the emitted light. If viewing the
UV/Vis/IR light is necessary, respective light protective glasses must be worn to avoid eye dam-
age. Do not look directly into the emitted light as this can be harmful to the eyes, even for brief
periods, due to the high intensity of the UV light.

5.8   Return of Devices

This precision device is only serviceable if returned and properly packed into the complete ori-
ginal  packaging  including  the  complete  shipment  plus  the  cardboard  insert  that  holds  the  en-
