Notes
Depending on the mode of operation, these devices emit highly concentrated visible and non visible light
which can be hazardous to the human eye. Products which incorporate these devices have to follow the
safety precautions given in IEC 60825-1.
Subcomponents of this device contain, in addition to other substances, metal flled materials including silver.
Metal flled materials can be afected by environments that contain traces of aggressive substances. There
–
fore, we recommend that customers minimize device exposure to aggressive substances during storage,
production, and use. Devices that showed visible discoloration when tested using the described tests above
did show no performance deviations within failure limits during the stated test duration. Respective failure
limits are described in the IEC60810.
Important notes of operation for laser diode
