Chapter 2 General Safety Information
product, please follow these warnings and cautions in addition to the other
information contained elsewhere in this document.
1.Specular Reflection
There are often numerous secondary laser beams produced at various
angles in the output port of the laser. These divergent beams are produced
when the primary beam of laser reflects off a smooth surface, and they are
called specular reflections. Although these secondary beams may be less
powerful than the total power emitted from the primary beam, the intensity
may be great enough to cause damage to the eyes and skin as well as
surface of materials.
WARNING :
◎ You must exercise caution to avoid/minimize specular reflections as
these laser radiations are invisible!
2.Safety Instructions of Accessories
WARNING :
◎ This device has an output optical head connected to the laser by a
fiber cable. Please, be careful dealing with the output head.
3.Optical Operating Instructions
We strongly recommend that you read the following procedures before
operating the laser:
(1)Never look directly into the laser output port when the power is turned
on.
(2)Avoid positioning the laser and all optical output components at eye
level.
(3)Ensure that all personal protective equipment is suitable for the
output power and wavelength ranges of the laser.
