1.4 Laser Description and Safety Information

For Safe Laser Use - Class 2 Lasers
CAUTION: Never stare directly into the sensor lens. Laser light can damage your eyes. Avoid placing any mirror-like object in
the beam. Never use a mirror as a retroreflective target.
Class 2 Lasers
Class 2 lasers are lasers that emit visible radiation in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 700 nm, where eye protection is normally
afforded by aversion responses, including the blink reflex. This reaction may be expected to provide adequate protection under
reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing.
Class 2 Laser Safety Notes
Low-power lasers are, by definition, incapable of causing eye injury within the duration of a blink (aversion response) of 0.25 seconds.
They also must emit only visible wavelengths (400 to 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard may exist only if individuals overcome their
natural aversion to bright light and stare directly into the laser beam.
Do not stare at the laser.
Do not point the laser at a person's eye.
Mount open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical.
Terminate the beam emitted by the laser product at the end of its useful path.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Do not attempt to disassemble
this sensor for repair. A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer.
