    The marking system is classified as Class 4 Laser Product. Datalogic, as manufacturer of "Ulyxe PL™" laser sources, provides a marking system which is NOT intended for immediate use, but it must be connected, by others, to other devices which have the final aim of creating a laser processing system.

  • Page 58: Appendix C: Note About Laser

    APPENDIX C: NOTE ABOUT LASER LASER SAFETY The following information is provided to comply with the rules imposed by International Authorities and refers to the correct use of the marking system. WARNING! The marking system is a Class 4 laser product.

  • Page 59: Laser Radiation

    The radiation of Ulyxe PL™ Lasers is invisible, but since it is near the threshold of visibility, the Eye receives it almost in its entirety without using the natural defense provided by pupil reflex! Added to this is the fact that it is generally very intense, with the result that it can be very harmful to the eye and present vision problems.

  • Page 60: Absorption Of Laser Radiation

    ABSORPTION OF LASER RADIATION Human skin absorbs electromagnetic radiation in different ways depending on the wave length of the radiation. Both the eye and skin have a “predisposition” for accepting certain wave lengths, and are more unresponsive to absorbing others. In the specific case of the Eye, the Cornea and Crystalline lens let all the wave lengths from 400 to 1400 nm pass and reach the Retina, even with various attenuations.

  • Page 61: Radiation Viewing Conditions

    This is the most frequent viewing, but opportune Filters and Goggles can ensure safety, even for prolonged exposure. The Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (N.O.H.D.) for Ulyxe PL™ is showed in the next paragraph. WARNING! Always use goggles with conformity certificate.

  • Page 62: Real O.r.n.d. Determination And O.d. Of Protection Goggles

    REAL N.O.H.D. DETERMINATION AND O.D. OF PROTECTION GOGGLES In order to determinate the characteristics of the protection goggles, it is essential to determine the characteristics of the radiation, knowing it optical path, the dimensions of the beam and its divergence. In particular, it is very important to know the diameter of the focal spot (which can be identified with beam waist 2Wo) and the real divergence of the beam in output from the focalization lens.
  • Page 63 ACCIDENTAL CONDITION OF VISION OF THE DIRECT REFLECTED RADIATION Distance > 0,5 m and for a maximum exposition period of 10 seconds and supposing that there is a total reflection without attenuation. O.R.N.D. = 28,5 m OPTICAL DENSITY OF THE PROTECTION GOGGLES Case a) Assuming to remove the fix protections and penetrate in the working area to adjust the process maintaining an observation distance Z of at least 0,5 m from the focal point and presupposing an accidental exposition of maximum 10 seconds.

  • Page 64: Eyes And Skin Risks

    EYES AND SKIN RISKS If exposed to intense Laser radiation, even of a short duration, or a less intense but longer lasting duration, both the Cornea and the Retina can burn and be damaged irreparably forever. This consequence is completely realistic in the event of direct viewing of a Class 4 Laser beam. If subject to direct focalized radiation, even the skin can burn.
  • Page 65 The most serious collateral risk associated with marking system, which may be fatal, is electricity. This may occur when the manufacturer’s warning and procedures are not followed. Unauthorized and untrained personnel must never do any work on the electrical part. The safety devices must never be removed and their operation must be periodically checked.
