Warnings
•All lasers used in this product are Class 1, in accordance with EN60825-1 as
well as 21CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11
•Laser light can be damaging to the eyes. Optical fibers and uniters should be
handled with great care.
• The IQOTR30 is designed for use with Class 1 laser systems only. Ensure
that all outputs do not exceed Class 1 as doing so will impair the safety of the
system and may result in damage to the equipment.
• Active fibers should not be handled unless thier source can positively be
identified as not exceeding Class 1 limits.
Notes
•
Note:
Optical uniters have shutters to prevent the ingress of dust. These shutters
should only be opened when connecting optical fibers.
• The ends of optical fibers should be cleaned with a liquid fiber cleaner, using
a cotton bud, to ensure that there is no dust present before they are plugged
in (the uniter is polarized).
• Do not disturb or handle the optical fibers.
