Safety Precautions
Optical Fiber Precautions
WARNING:
pierce the skin or damage the eyes easily. Do not let pieces of fiber
stick to your clothing or drop in the work area where they can cause
injury later. Use tweezers to pick up pieces of fiber and place them
on a loop of tape kept for that purpose alone. Good housekeeping
is very important.
Chemical Precautions
CAUTION: Fiber optic cleaning fluid can cause irritation to eyes on
contact. In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with water
for at least 15 minutes. Inhaling fumes may be harmful. Use with
adequate ventilation. In case of ingestion, consult a physician.
Laser Handling Precautions
WARNING: Never look directly into the end of a fiber that may be
carrying laser light. Laser light can be invisible and can damage your
eyes. Viewing it directly does not cause pain. The iris of the eye will
not close involuntarily as when viewing a bright light. Consequently,
serious damage to the retina of the eye is possible. Should accidental
eye exposure to laser light be suspected, arrange for an eye
examination immediately.
Safety Glasses Precautions
CAUTION:
conforming to ANSI Z87, for eye protection from accidental injury
when handling chemicals, cables, or working with fiber. Pieces of
glass fiber are very sharp and have the potential to damage the eye.
Laser Safety
The UniCam
1040.10 and 1040.11. except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50,
dated June 24, 2007. Class 1 Laser product to IEC 60825-1:2014.
CAUTION:
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Cable Handling Precautions
NOTE:
Fiber optic cable is sensitive to excessive pulling, bending, and crushing forces.
Consult the cable specification sheet for the cable you are installing. Do not bend the
cable more sharply than the minimum recommended bend radius. Do not apply more
pulling force to the cable than specified. Do not crush the cable or allow it to kink. Doing
so may cause damage that can alter the transmission characteristics of the cable; the
cable may have to be replaced.
