Laser Classification

General
The following chapters provide instructions and training information about laser safety
according to international standard IEC 60825-1 (2014-05) and technical report IEC TR
60825-14 (2004-02). The information enables the person responsible for the product
and the person who actually uses the equipment, to anticipate and avoid operational
hazards.

According to IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02), products classified as laser class 1,
class 2 and class 3R do not require:
• laser safety officer involvement,
• protective clothes and eyewear,
• special warning signs in the laser working area
if used and operated as defined in this User Manual due to the low eye hazard
level.

National laws and local regulations could impose more stringent instructions
for the safe use of lasers than IEC 60825-1 (2014-05) and IEC TR 60825-14
(2004-02).
