WARNING
Dangerous laser radiation
Laser radiation can cause irreparable damage to eyes and
skin.
The maximum permitted power for the ORL-85 means that the
optical input signals can reach hazard level.
Bear this in mind when using the ORL-85. In particular, the
instrument is equipped with a through channel that transmits
all the optical radiation from the input to the output without
attenuation, even when the ORL-85 is switched off.
J
Please note that also in broadband mode light is emitted at
the unconnected port.
J
This device is a Class 1 laser product according to
DIN EN 60825-1:2007.
J
Always be aware of the hazard level of the instrument to be
connected.
J
Connect all optical fibers before switching on the radiation
source.
J
Switch off the laser source before disconnecting the optical
fibers.
J
Never look directly into the unconnected port of the
instrument, the output of a laser source, or an optical fiber
connected to a source or a system.
