Laser classes
WARNING
Laser radiation of Class 2 (US: Class II)
Lasers of Class 2 (US: Class II) are safe, but can cause irritation of the eyes if the natural
avoidance reaction (staring into the beam deliberately) or eyelid closure reflex is suppressed.
-
Do not suppress the eyelid closure reflex.
-
Do not stare directly into the beam.
-
Close eyes, turn away.
-
Never look at the laser beam directly with an optical instrument, e.g. a lens
.
The accessible laser radiation of Class 2 (US: Class II) laser systems does not pose any hazard for
the skin. Diffuse reflections as well as any short-term irradiation of the eyes (exposure time max. 0.25
sec) also poses no risk due to the low output power.
However, it is possible to suppress the natural eyelid closure reflex and stare into the class-2 beam for
a time long enough for the eyes to get injured.
WARNING
Laser radiation of Class 4 (US: class IV)
Exposure to laser radiation of Class 4 (US: Class IV) can cause injury to the eyes and skin.
-
The skin and eyes must not be exposed to direct or reflected or scattered radiation.
-
Wear suitable laser safety protection glasses.
