L-250 Principles of Lasers & Laser Safety Officer Course 5 Days  
 

This five-day course is designed for those persons designated as the Laser Safety Officer (LSO) for their facility who also need a solid introduction to lasers.

The first day of the course provides a general overview of types of lasers and how laser light differs from that produced by the sun and other "ordinary" light sources. The participant also learns about laser operation, terminology and beam properties. Common types of lasers including specific gas, solid-state, and diode lasers are discussed and an overview of laser optics and beam delivery systems is included. The discussion of basic laser operation emphasizes those laser characteristics that are important for the LSO to understand in order to perform the laser hazard evaluation.

The next four days of the course consist of an in-depth, analytical presentation of the LSO’s duties and requirements according to ANSI Z136.1, OSHA, FDA-CDRH and state laser standards. After a review of the biological basis, the student will complete an in-depth computational workshop that covers MPEs, AELs, NHZs and ODs. An in-depth discussion of the control of laser hazards is provided.

Product Focus
Laser Protective Windows

Laser Safety Officers have the option of using laser protective windows instead of eyewear to protect those who are required to watch laser activities.

Windows are available for most common lasers such as Nd:YAG, Argon, CO2, Excimer, HeNe, Diodes, Ruby and Broadband in a standard size of 2 feet x 3 feet, but can be cut to any smaller size upon request.

In some cases, larger sizes may be available as a special order.

For more information regarding laser protective windows, please contact Pat Cogan via email or by calling (800) 94-LASER.
