1–06 Safety

Spare parts shall be properly stored prior to replacement, i.e. particularly protected against m oisture. Defective

electronic components and assemblies must be suitably packed when dispatched for repair, i.e. particularly

protected against moisture and impact and wrapped in antistatic foil if necessary.

Working with laser equipment

When working with laser equipment, always wear special laser-protection goggles.

Laser equipment can generate extremely intensive, concentrated radiation by the effect of stimulated emission

in the range of visible light or in the infrared or ultraviolet spectral range. The photochemical, thermal and

optomechanical effects of the laser can cause damage. The main danger is irreparable damage to the eyes.

Laser equipment must be fitted with the protective devices necessary for safe

operation according to type and application.

For conducting light-beam procedures and measurement work, only the following laser devices must be used:

• Laser devices of classes 1, 2 or 3A,

• Laser devices of class 3B, which have maximum output in the visible wavelength range (400 to 700 nm), a

maximum output of 5 mW, and in which the beam axis and surface are designed to prevent any risk to the eyes.

Operation of electrical equipment

When operating electrical equipment, certain components of this equipment are live.

Noncompliance with the warning instructions given for this equipment may result

in ser

ious injury or damage to property.
