Laser Safety Information (EB-PQ2220B)

This projector is a Class 1/RG3 laser product that complies with the IEC 60825-1:2014 international standard for laser products and the IEC 62471-5:2015 international standard for laser illuminated projectors. This projector also complies with US requirements for LIPs (Laser Illuminated Projectors) via the terms of US FDA CDRH Classification and Requirements for Laser Illuminated Projectors (LIPs) (Laser Notice No. 57) dated May 8, 2019.

This projector can only be installed or used by qualified personnel with an approved laser light show variance. Installers must have a valid variance for production of Class 3B and Class 4 laser light shows and/or for incorporation of the RG3 LIPs into their shows. Dealers, distributors, and end-users are also required to obtain a valid laser light show variance. If you are renting out this projector in the US, it shall only be delivered to parties that demonstrate they have a valid variance in effect at the time of delivery that permits the production of laser light shows incorporating either Class 3B/4, or RG3 LIP projectors.

Notes regarding user of Class 1/RG3 Projectors in the US and Variances:
  • To obtain a variance, purchaser will sign a variance application which indicates legal agreement to follow the terms of operation as defined in the variance application and in the ‘terms’ of the final variance permit from the US FDA CDRH.
  • Prior to variance application, purchaser will be provided the following:
    • Laser Safety Awareness Training
    • LIP projector Operator Training
    • Information regarding safe and legal installation, set up, and use.
This projector contains a high-powered laser component and the following precautions should be taken when operating the projector to avoid injury or damage:
  • No direct exposure to the beam shall be permitted within the safety exclusion zone that is determined by the light beam’s Hazard Distance (HD). See hazard distance section for information.
  • Never open any covers on the projector except as specifically explained in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or modify the projector.
  • Never attempt to override safety interlocks.
  • All repairs of this projector must be done by licensed service personnel.
  • Only trained users with a valid laser light show variance are allowed access to the area where the projector is installed. The area should be secured and access to it controlled by the owner of the location.
  • The projector generates high amounts of heat. Do not place flammable or combustible objects around the projector, especially in front of the lens.
