Laser Information

The SelectSet Avantra imagesetters are classified as Class I laser de-

maintenance is less than Class I limits. This means that you are not

tenance. The SelectSet Avantra complies with Code of Federal Regula-
tions 21CFR, Subchapter J.
Inside SelectSet Avantra imagesetters are two Class IIIb laser products.

dance with the Code of Federal Regulations and international stan-
