2.5 Safety and Radiation Information
2.5.1 Laser Safety
The Microscope System is classified as laser class 3B / IIIB.
However, there is one exception:
The 1-Channel MAT version of the LSM 900 is a laser class 2 / II instrument due to its system con-
figuration. (The laser module itself is still a laser class 3 module.)
The operator of the laser equipment is responsible for conformance with protective measures and
safety requirements.
Laser safety measures in accordance with the applicable country-specific legal regulations remain
valid. As the responsible body, the operator is responsible for complying with laser safety regula-
tions.
The following types of lasers are currently intended for use. Using other lasers than indicated be-
low requires prior coordination with ZEISS.
