xxii Applied Biosystems 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System and SDS Enterprise Database User Guide
The Applied Biosystems 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System has been tested to and
complies with standard EN60825-1, “Radiation Safety of Laser Products, Equipment
Classification, Requirements, and User’s Guide.
Laser Safety
Requirements
To ensure safe laser operation:
The system must be installed and maintained by an Applied Biosystems
Technical Representative.
All instrument panels must be in place on the instrument while the instrument is
operating. When all panels are installed, there is no detectable radiation present.
If any panel is removed when the laser is operating (during service with safety
interlocks disabled), you may be exposed to laser emissions in excess of the
Class 3B rating.
Do not remove safety labels or disable safety interlocks.
Additional Laser
Safety
Information
Refer to the user documentation provided with the laser for additional information on
government and industry safety regulations.
LASER HAZARD. Lasers can burn the retina causing
permanent blind spots. Never look directly into the laser beam. Remove jewelry and
other items that can reflect the beam into your eyes. Do not remove the instrument
top or front panels. Wear proper eye protection and post a laser warning sign at the
entrance to the laboratory if the top or front panels are removed for service.
LASER BURN HAZARD. An overheated laser can cause
severe burns if it comes in contact with the skin. DO NOT operate the laser when it
cannot be cooled by its cooling fan. Always wear appropriate laser safety goggles.
Bar Code Scanner Laser Safety
Laser
Classification

PCR System is categorized as a Class 2 (II) laser.
Laser Safety
Requirements

Never look directly into the laser beam. The scanner is designed to prevent human
access to harmful levels of laser light during normal operation, user maintenance, or
