When the user tilts the transmitted light arm of the microscope to the end of its axis range, laser safety can be bypassed and result in emission of class lIlb laser radiation. This issue arises when a ZEISS inverted stage stand (Axio Observer or Axio Vert) is used in as a component of the LSM 700, 800 and 900 system
Under certain circumstances, the firmware makes it possible for the Disinfection unit UV (432332-9020-000) to activate outside of the Celldiscoverer 7 housing. This may result in exposure of the users to harmful UV radiation.
In certain eyepiece configurations the laser shutter may not close completely, permitting reflected beams that may be greater than the Class I limit.
