Reason
LRF models were sold to non-DoD customers prior to certification and reporting as required in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Subchapter J, Parts 1000 - 1050 (21 CFR 1000 - 1050). A filter defect allows transmission of laser energy such that the affected LRF would be Class 3B laser product, however the product is reported to CDRH as a Class I product.
Root cause
Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act
Action
Customers will be notified by a letter instructing them to stop using the LRF, contact a Customer Service Representative, and to detach and return the Laser Range Finder. For each returned LRF, FLIR will provide a certified Class I LRF.
