Laser Safety
components is solely responsible for the assurance that the laser processing system sold to
an end user complies with all laser safety requirements before the actual sale of the system.
Under CDRH regulations, the Buyer must submit a report to the CDRH prior to shipping the
system. In jurisdictions outside the U.S., it is the sole responsibility of the Buyer of these OEM
(FCC) requirements
The United States Communication Act of 1934 vested the Federal Communications Commis-
sion (FCC) with the authority to regulate equipment that emits electromagnetic radiation in
the radio frequency spectrum. The purpose of the Communication Act is to prevent harmful
electromagnetic interference (EMI) from aecting authorized radio communication services.
The FCC regulations that govern industrial, scientic, and medical (ISM) equipment are fully
described in 47 CFR, Part 18, Subpart C.
SYNRAD® 32-1 lasers have been tested and found to comply by demonstrating performance
characteristics that have met or exceeded the requirements of 47 CFR, Part 18, Radiated and
Conducted Emissions.
FCC information to the user
The following FCC information to the user is provided to comply with the requirements
of 47 CFR, Part 18, Section 213.
Interference Potential
In our testing, SYNRAD has not discovered any signicant electrical interference traceable to
32-1 lasers.
System Maintenance
Ensure that all exterior covers are properly fastened in position.
Measures to Correct Interference
If you suspect that your laser interferes with other equipment, take the following steps to
minimize this interference:
1 Use shielded cables to and from the equipment that is experiencing interference prob-
lems.
2 Ensure that the laser is properly grounded to the same electrical potential as the
equipment or system it is connected to.
FCC caution to the user
The Federal Communications Commission warns the user that changes or modications of
the unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
