Beam Hazards
It is advised to perform a risk assessment for the facility and equipment prior to using the laser. In the case of
integration into a larger system, laser safety compliance must be evaluated in the end product. The device must be
handled by skilled personnel experienced with lasers, in a laboratory environment and with access to adequate laser
safety equipment. The laser clearly displays a yellow warning label that shows the location of the laser beam aperture.
This label must be visible unless the laser beam is totally enclosed.
WARNING Remove all watches, rings and other reflective jewelry before working with lasers.
Always wear the appropriate eye protection from the wavelengths integrated into the system. As
the system can be integrated with different laser lines after delivery, verify the accessible emission
wavelength and power before operating. Never look directly into a laser beam.
The highest risk of exposure is when aligning the beam. Eye hazards are related to direct exposure, specular
reflections and in the case of Class 4 lasers can even be related to diffuse reflections. Eye and skin exposure to direct
or reflected laser light is hazardous and may be extremely harmful. Always wear eye protection appropriate to the
beam wavelength(s) and intensity.
Laser radiation may ignite flammable materials and combustible gasses in the beam path and, in event of ignition,
fumes may be generated. All equipment used in close proximity to the laser beam should be suitably fire resistant and
the facility should be properly ventilated.
CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of any procedures other than those
specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous radiation.
Non-Beam Hazards
Strong Internal Magnet
The laser combiner safety interlock, described in section 2.3, and laser heads with optical isolators (Cobolt model
08-11) contain strong permanent magnets. Proceed with caution when positioning or servicing the laser
combiner near material which may be magnetized and when operating with tools which may be magnetized
(e.g. screwdriver) around the laser head. Users with implanted medical devices should stay back at least 30cm
(12 inches).
