General
The EDM module built into the product produces a visible laser beam which emerges
from the telescope objective.
The laser product described in this section is classified as laser class 3R in accordance
with:
•
IEC 60825-1 (2007-03): "Safety of laser products".
•
EN 60825-1 (2007-10): "Safety of laser products".
Class 3R laser products:
Direct intrabeam viewing may be hazardous (low-level eye hazard), in particular for
deliberate ocular exposure. The risk of injury for laser class 3R products is limited
because of:
•
unintentional exposure would rarely reflect worst case conditions of (e.g.) beam
alignment with the pupil, worst case accommodation,
•
inherent safety margin in the maximum permissible exposure to laser radiation
(MPE), natural aversion behaviour for exposure to bright light for the case of
visible radiation.
