Description

Self-built Laser Blocking Solution
The Dolphin Laser Safety Curtain Pod is built from Lasermet’s Dolphin Laser Blocking Curtain material – certified to EN 12254 Screens for Laser Working Places.
The Dolphin Pod consists of a modular free-standing structure that supports laser blocking curtains to enable users of handheld laser welding devices to work without endangering surrounding workers from stray laser radiation. It is supplied as a low-cost, self-assembly pod in flat-pack form to enable easy transport and assembly by the customer. This means that it can also be disassembled and rebuilt in a different location quickly and easily if required.
The standard enclosure is a 2.4m (8ft) cube with a manually-operated curtain door and an open roof for ventilation.
Interlock® Options
The Dolphin Pod comes with an Interlock® upgrade option complete with safety interlock switches, dual-message LED warning sign, and emergency stops – all linked to a Lasermet Interlock® Controller.
