Laser safety
Laser hazard classification
These devices have laser classifications of Class 2 or Class 3 as per industry standards described in
the table below.
It is device
operator’s responsibility to adhere to the warning labels.
Warning labels
The following labels can be found on the Z-Trak2 laser profiler body.
Class 2M
CAUTION
—
DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM OR EXPOSE USERS OF TELESCOPIC OPTICS
Visible laser of no more than 1 mW continuous wave power through a 7 mm diameter aperture (largest
pupil aperture).
May be hazardous if viewed with optical instruments such as binoculars or eye loupe.
Safe for unintentional (less than ¼ sec) unaided eye exposure. Aversion response (blink reflex) will protect
workers from visible lasers unless a telescope or microscope is used.
Not a skin or materials burn hazard.
Class 3R
CAUTION
—
AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE
Visible lasers of no more than 5 mW continuous wave power through a 7 mm diameter aperture (largest
pupil aperture).
Avoid intentional exposure to direct or reflected beam.
Unintentional or accidental exposure to direct or reflected beam has a low risk. Exposure to beam may
cause temporary flash blindness. Aversion response (blink reflex) will protect workers from visible lasers
unless a telescope or microscope is used.
Not a skin or materials burn hazard.
