Hello group,
Does anyone have any experience with product labeling equipment, that use
lasers. I have a situation where a Class 3B laser is used, however after the
power attenuation through the fiber cable, the output power is only 800uW
max. This power actually could be considered Class 2, however the wavelength
is 1300nm, which falls into the invisible light spectrum. Therefore, I plan
to label the product Class 3A. If there are any errors in my reasoning,
please let me know. I want to place a caution label (all that is required
for this output level) on the top of the product, but my marketing people
don't want it displayed there because they feel that it may hamper sales.
Unfortunately, marketing has too much authority, so I am looking for a
standard that mandates where the label should go. Everything I have read
only makes suggestions, but I need more than that.
Thanks in advance,
Courtland Thomas
