Safety
Caution
At larger distances, the emission of emissions (reflected radiation) cannot be completely
excluded.
In order to avoid any resulting dangers, the operator must take suitable measures for shielding
such as laser safety enclosures (see chapter Laser Classes), personal protective equipment, ...
for the user.
Notice
During normal operation it is not necessary to wear safety glasses.
However, secondary radiation may penetrate from the safety plate if necessary. If visible, this
secondary radiation can cause glare to employees. The pilot laser is also a possible source of
glare. Glare is usually reversible.
– Observe organizational measures (knowledge transfer during enrolment).
– Avoid reflected radiation or radiation from the pilot laser by turning away.
– If reflected radiation enters the eye, close eyes intentionally immediately and turn away.
Service operation
Service activities may be carried out only by authorized, trained service technicians. If side panels as well as
covers get removed and safety devices get bypassed, it can lead to direct and indirect scattered radiation.
The service operation is therefore declared as laser class 4 (US: class IV) and proper precautions need to be
taken (see "Laser classification").
2.2 Laser safety
2.2.1 Laser classification
The here described machine is equipped with an enclosed laser pointer and a sealed carbon dioxide laser
source that emits invisible and intense laser radiation with a wavelength of 10.6 microns.
Laser classification according to DIN EN 60825-1 "Safety of Laser Products":
SP3000 laser machine: Class 2 (US: Class II) in the working area and operating range, due to the
key safety devices and enclosed laser pointer (normal operation).
Laser source: Class 4 (US: Class IV)
Enclosed laser pointer: Class 2 (US: Class II)
