Getting Started with DFB Laser Sources

This chapter introduces the features of the Agilent 81663A DFB

Laser Source Module.

8 Agilent DFB Laser Source Module User’s Guide

Safety Considerations

The following general safety precautions must be observed

during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this

instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with

specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety

standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the

instrument. Agilent Technologies assumes no liability for the

customer’s failure to comply with these requirements.

Before operation, review the instrument and manual, including

the safety page, for safety markings and instructions. You must

follow these to ensure safe operation and to maintain the

instrument in safe condition.

Safety Symbols

The apparatus will be marked with this symbol when it is

necessary for the user to refer to the instruction manual in

order to protect the apparatus against damage.

Hazardous laser radiation.

Initial Inspection

Inspect the shipping container for damage. If there is damage to

the container or cushioning, keep them until you have checked

the contents of the shipment for completeness and verified the

instrument both mechanically and electrically.

The Performance Tests give procedures for checking the

operation of the instrument. If the contents are incomplete,

mechanical damage or defect is apparent, or if an instrument

does not pass the operator’s checks, notify the nearest Agilent

Technologies Sales/Service Office.

WARNING

The WARNING sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a

procedure, practice or the like, which, if not correctly performed

or adhered to, could result in injury or loss of life. Do not proceed

beyond a WARNING sign until the indicated conditions are fully

understood and met.

WARNING

To avoid hazardous electrical shock, do not perform electrical

tests when there are signs of shipping damage to any portion of

the outer enclosure (covers, panels, etc.).

Initial Safety Information for the DFB Laser Source Module

The laser sources specified by this user guide are classified

according to IEC 60825-1 (2001)

The laser sources comply with 21 CFR 1040.10 except for

deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated 2001-July-26.

Laser Safety Labels

Laser class 1M label

Figure 1 Class 1M Safety Label - Agilent 81663A

A sheet of laser safety labels is included with the laser module

as required. In order to meet the requirements of IEC 60825-1

we recommend that you stick the laser safety labels, in your

language, onto a suitable location on the outside of the

instrument where they are clearly visible to anyone using the

instrument.
