Description
Comprehensive laser safety protection must be in place in order to shield personnel from Class 4 and Class 3B lasers. Laser radiation must be kept contained within labs and manufacturing facilities using approved equipment
In order to enable safe continuation of other work in the same room during service, facilities that use Class 1 lasers—which are classified as Class 4 under service conditions—may need free-standing screens. Also, where a production line uses a Class 4 laser for cutting and welding, it is impractical for the whole facility to observe Class 4 safety regulations. The laser facility can become a Class 1 system, though, if complete enclosures are used.
Lasermet provide a range of free-standing laser-blocking screens which are designed for use as passive guards to enclose areas where Class 3B or Class 4 lasers are in use either to protect against accidental exposure to the laser beam or for long term blocking of laser radiation at lower power densities.
All Lasermet laser-blocking screens are CE marked and certified to BS EN IEC 60825-4 Safety of Laser Products Part 4: Laser Guards.
Given that they are all movable, the screens can be installed briefly, semi-permanently, or permanently depending on the situation.
