SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

Laser safety

The provisions contained in two standards define the safety procedures to be observed 

both by users and by manufacturers when utilizing laser products:

 

-

EN 60825-1: 2001 - Safety of laser products – Part 1: Classification of products, 

requirements and user guidelines. 

 

-

FDA 21 CFR § 1040.10 - Performance standards for light-emitting products - Laser 

products.

Due to the range of possible wavelengths, power values and injection characteristics of 

a laser beam, the risks inherent in its usage vary. The laser classes form groups repre-

senting different safety thresholds.

 

-

VFL option: Laser Class 2.

Due to the reduced dimensions of the optical modules, it is not possible to attach the re-

quired warning labels to them. In line with the provisions of Article 5.1 of the EN 60825-1 

standard, the laser class identification labels are shown below:

Ref. standard

EN 60825-1, Edition 1.2, 2001-08

Class 2

LASER RADIATION

DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM

CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT

CAUTION

LASER RADIATION - DO NOT 

STARE INTO BEAM

CLASS II LASER PRODUCT 

The user must take the necessary precautions concerning the optical outputs of the 

instrument and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Measurements on optical fibers are difficult to execute and the precision of the results 

obtained depends largely on the precautions taken by the user.

AC/DC power supply safety

In conformance with the recommendations of standard EN 61010, the instrument 

should be operated within the manufacturer’s guidelines. Failure to do so may compro-

mise the protection offered by the instruments design.

Do not use any mains adaptor or battery other than those supplied with the instrument, 

or supplied by Viavi as an option for this instrument.

The 4000 Platform uses a Lithium ion (LiIon) rechargeable battery and a lithium coin-

cell. This is a long-life battery, and it’s possible that you will never need to replace it. 

However, should you need to replace it, refer to your system documentation for instruc-

tions.
Do not dispose of the battery/coin-cell along with household waste. Contact your local 

waste disposal agency for the address of the nearest battery/ coin-cell deposit site.
