Laser protection endangerment class 3B and 4

Dear customer,
you will find laser products according to DIN EN 60825-1/03/94 on our website, which are assigned to the laser endangerment classes 3B and 4, even though this is not explicit mentioned.

Lasers of the class 3B according to CDR H conform normally to the class 3B according to DIN EN60825-1/03/97. OEM lasers have to be classified basically by the manufacturer.

We suggest our customers, according to the accident prevention direction "Laserstrahlung (VBG 93)", that a laser protection commissioner has to be ordered in writing for those products. Furthermore all lasers of the classes 3B and 4 have to be indicated at the responsible professional association and the responsible local public authority before the first commissioning. We request you to follow those safety instructions in your own interest.

The accident prevention direction "Laserstrahlung (VBG 93)" can be ordered at the following address:
