Laser Safety
The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer instrument is classified as a "Laser Class 1"
product (IEC825-1, CFR1040.10). During normal operation of the instrument,
no laser light is accessible to the user.
When the laser is in use, the laser light source emits light at a power that may
be harmful to the eyes. To prevent operator exposure to potentially harmful
laser light, an interlock mechanism turns off the laser whenever the lid of the
Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer instrument is not closed. Furthermore, the lid can't
be completely opened and has a black light absorbing surface in order to
prevent any potential laser light reflection.
