Laser Safety

The FS22 - Industrial BraggMETER SI contains a laser in
its core. A laser is a light source that can be dangerous
to people exposed to it. Even low power lasers can be
hazardous to a person's eyesight. The coherence and
low divergence of laser light means that it can be focused
by the eye into an extremely small spot on the retina,
resulting in localized burning and permanent damage.
The lasers are classified by wavelength and maximum
output power into the several safety classes: Class 1,
Class 1 M, Class 2, Class 2 M, Class 3R and Class 4.
