Laser classification and safety
Introduction
This topic describes the laser classification and safety.
Laser product classification and safety
Laser hazard levels depend on laser energy content and the wavelengths used. A
numbered system is used to categorize lasers according to different hazard levels. The
higher the classification number, the greater the potential hazard. The instrument
complies with FDA performance standards for laser products except for deviations
pursuant to laser notice No. 56, dated May 8, 2019. It is a Class 1 Laser Product per
IEC/EN 60825-1:2014.
The built-in laser source has the following specifications.
Parameter
Wavelength
Maximum power
Pulse duration
The lasers and laser energy are within the instrument structure and call for no special
work area safety requirements except when service procedures are being performed.
These procedures are to be carried out only by BD Biosciences service personnel.
Electrical safety
Introduction
This topic describes how to avoid electrical hazards.
Electrical precautions
Lethal electrical hazards are present in some power supplies. Many portions of the
electrical system are at a dangerous voltage level.
This is an electrostatic sensitive device. Observe precautions for handling
electrostatic discharge-sensitive devices.
