Table 7: TLS120Xe optical radiation safety
information
In deploying the TLS120Xe in an experimental setup, safety measures should
be implemented in the following order:
1.
Engineering controls (e.g., filters, shielding, etc)
2.
Administrative measures (such as warnings and labels)
3.
Personal protective equipment (eye and skin protection)
For further information please read the TLS120Xe
photobiological safety report for further guidance on the
risk assessment given the various configuration
parameters that may impact the accessible emission.
