Notice on safety

This equipment is built in accordance with the requirements of the international safety standards IEC60950-1,
EN60950-1, UL60950-1 and CAN/CSA C22.2 No.60950-1, which are the safety standards of information
technology equipment including electrical business equipment. These safety standards impose important
requirements on the use of safety critical components, materials and insulation, in order to protect the user or
operator against risk of electric shock and energy hazard and having access to live parts. Safety standards
also impose limits to the internal and external temperature rises, radiation levels, mechanical stability and
strength, enclosure construction and protection against the risk of fire. Simulated single fault condition testing
ensures the safety of the equipment to the user even when the equipment's normal operation fails.

Notice on optical radiation

This projector embeds extremely high brightness (radiance) lasers; this laser light is processed through the
projectors optical path. Native laser light is not accessible by the end user in any use case. The light exiting
the projection lens has been defused within the optical path, representing a larger source and lower radiance
value than native laser light. Nevertheless the projected light represents a significant risk for the human eye
when exposed directly within the beam. This risk is not specific related to the characteristics of laser light but
solely to the high thermal induced energy of the light source; which is equivalent with lamp based systems.

Thermal retinal eye injury is possible when exposed within the Hazard Distance (HD). The HD is defined from
the projection lens surface towards the position of the projected beam where the irradiance equals the
maximum permissible exposure as described in the chapter

“

Hazard Distance

”

WARNING:

No direct exposure to the beam within the hazard distance shall be permitted, RG3 IEC

62471-5:2015

CAUTION:

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified

herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
