SAFETY

Safety Precautions

The optical emissions from the units are laser-based and may present eye hazards if im-

properly used. NEVER USE ANY KIND OF OPTICAL INSTRUMENT TO VIEW THE OP-
TICAL OUTPUT OF THE UNIT. Be careful when working with optical fibers. Fibers can

cause painful injury if they penetrate the skin.

Laser Safety Procedure
ALWAYS read the product data sheet and the laser safety label before powering the product.

Note the operation wavelength, optical output power and safety classifications.

If safety goggles or other eye protection are used, be certain that the protection is effective at

the wavelength emitted by the device under test BEFORE applying power.
ALWAYS connect a fiber to the output of the device BEFORE power is applied. Power

should never be applied without an attached fiber. If the device has a connector output, a
connector should be attached that is connected to a fiber. This will ensure that all light is
confined within the fiber waveguide, virtually eliminating all potential hazard.

NEVER look at the end of the fiber to see if light is coming out. NEVER! Most fiber optic la-

ser wavelengths (1310 nm and 1550 nm) are totally invisible to the unaided eye and will
cause permanent damage. Shorter wavelengths lasers (e.g., 780 nm) are visible and are
very damaging. Always use instruments, such as an optical power meter, to verify light out­put.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER look into the end of a fiber on a powered device with ANY sort of

magnifying device. This includes microscopes, eye loupes and magnifying glasses. This

WILL cause a permanent and irreversible burn on your retina. Always double check that

power is disconnected before using such devices. If possible, completely disconnect the unit
from any power source.

If you have questions about laser safety procedures, please call Olson Technology before
powering your product.
