Laser safety precautions
WARNING While the Model 2520INT does not incorporate a laser, it is designed to
be used with laser diode devices. The following safety practices must be
used to protect operators and other users of this product from potential
exposure to laser radiation:
• Operators must be protected from radiation and electrical hazards
at all times.
• The installer must comply with all applicable laws and regulation
on laser safety. This requirement includes warning signs and oper-
ator training.
• Where an interlock is required for safe operation, the test fixtures
must ensure that the interlock circuit is disabled (source outputs
inhibited) when the operator can be exposed to radiation. The
test fixture interlock must not be defeated under any operating
conditions.
• When servicing the test system, any required personnel protection
equipment (e.g. laser safety goggles) must be provided by the cus-
tomer's responsible body.
• The customer's laser safety officer (LSO) must review and approve
all installations before being put into operation. Any safety con-
cerns must be immediately reported to the customer's LSO.
• When making connections, do not leave any exposed connections.
Be sure that all external circuits are properly insulated.
WARNING It is the responsibility of the customer to operate instruments in a safe
manner. Follow all applicable safety regulations for installing, config-
uring, and using the Model 2520. The Model 2520, as installed, should
be approved by the appropriate safety personnel, such as the responsi-
ble Laser Safety Officer or equivalent.
Suggested starting points for workplace regulations and standards:
ANSI Z136.1, IEC 825, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.
In short, always be aware of workplace hazards, strive to minimize
them, and work safely.
