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.

L-322 Advanced Laser Safety Officer Course - Calculations Workshop |
2 Days |
|
|
This advanced level course is designed for the experienced laser safety officer (LSO) and has been developed to reflect the changes in the new ANSI Z136.1-2014 Standard.
It is conducted in a special “student involvement” format consisting of both didactic and hands-on problem solving in a workshop format where specific, real-world, laser safety scenarios is evaluated. Focus will be on the significant changes to Section 8 and relevant tables/figures including: Correction factor CC, CP, CE, αmin, αmax, tmin as well as what is not changing with respect to MPEs and AELs, such as MPEs for UVR wavelengths, CW visible wavelengths, NIR CW lasers used in industry and CO2 lasers.
