Laser Classification IIIb > 100mW 1550nm
This device is classified as a high power Class IIIb laser instrument under 21 CFR
1040.10. This product emits invisible laser radiation at or around a wavelength of 1550 nm,
and the total light energy radiated from any optical output is greater than 100mW . This
level of light may cause damage to the eye and skin. Despite the radiation being invisible,
the beam may cause irreversible damage to the cornea. Laser safety eyewear is not pro-
vided with this instrument, but must be worn at all times while the laser is operational.
WARNING:
Use appropriate laser safety eyewear when operating this device. The selection of
appropriate laser safety eyewear requires the end user to accurately identify the
range of wavelengths emitted from this product. If the device is a tunable laser or
Raman product, it emits light over a range of wavelengths and the end user should
confirm the laser safety eyewear used protects against light emitted by the device
over its entire range of wavelengths.
WARNING:
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those set
forth in this User’s Guide may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
CAUTION:
Do not install or terminate fibers when amplifier is active.
