How it Works:

The Laser Module Emitter – Red Line operates by emitting coherent light through a laser diode, which is typically powered by a low DC voltage. The wavelength of around 650 nm makes the laser visible to the human eye as a bright red line. The module is equipped with optics (lenses) to spread the laser beam into a line shape. The laser is powered by a DC voltage and emits light until the power is turned off or the system is deactivated.

Installation and Usage Tips:

• Ensure Correct Voltage: Always check the voltage requirements of the specific module to avoid damaging the laser. Many modules operate at 5V DC, but it’s important to verify this in the datasheet.
• Mounting and Alignment: Secure the module using the included mounting brackets (if available) and carefully align it to achieve the desired projection angle and alignment.
• Safety: Though the <5mW output is generally safe, avoid direct eye exposure to the laser beam to prevent potential damage to the eyes.
• Heat Management: Ensure proper ventilation or heat dissipation to avoid overheating of the laser module, especially in prolonged use.
