A Note About Laser Safety
The LE-445-6000-SC Spot Creator Laser is a Class 4 laser device, and not a toy. The laser is capable of blinding and can produce serious burns to the skin. It is meant to be used in OEM applications that incorporate adequate laser safety measures and is not CDRH compliant. APS assumes no responsibility for users that do not follow adequate laser safety protocols, such as the use of laser glasses with the proper amount of Optical Density at the operating wavelength of 445 nm, or do not take measures to protect the skin or eyes. In applications such as do-it-yourself laser engraving, marking, or cutting X-Y-Z machines, it is the responsibility of the user to provide adequate shielding from scattered laser light to protect the eyes.
