LSO Courses: Last Chance for Cincinnati and Another Course Added

This is the last chance to register for our Laser Safety Officer course in Cincinnati, OH from August 21 - 24, 2018.

We have also added another LSO course to our schedule, this time in Phoenix, AZ from October 23 - 26, 2018.

This intermediate level training course provides an in-depth, analytical review of the Laser Safety Officer ( LSO ) duties and requirements of ANSI Z136.1, OSHA, FDA-CDRH and state laser standards.

For those who are new to lasers or wish to take a refresher, our Principles of Lasers course is available the day before the LSO course. This one-day introductory course is designed for those responsible for operating and maintaining laser systems, providing a solid introduction to lasers. It also provides a knowledge base for those who plan to continue their professional development and will be attending the Laser Safety Officer (LSO) course.

Next Laser Measurements Course Being Held in October

RLI is once again offering the Measurements for Laser Safety Course, this time at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD on October 10-12, 2018.

Featuring equipment by Ophir Optronics, this hands-on course will teach you how to perform laser safety measurements according to applicable laser safety standards. The course will focus on workshop exercises that are designed to make maximum use of laser output measurement equipment in solving real-world laser measurement problems.

The ANSI Z136.4 American National Standard Recommended Practice for Laser Safety Measurements for Hazard Evaluation, FDA/CDRH Laser Product Performance Standard, and the IEC/TR 60825-13 Ed. 2.0 will be the basis of measurement requirements presented in the course. The instructor is the Chair of the ANSI Z136 Measurements Standards Subcommittee (SSC-4) and the Convenor of the IEC TC 76 Laser Radiation Measurement Working Group (WG 3).

For more information about this course, please contact us via email or call us at (800) 94-LASER.

RLI Sponsoring ILSC^® in March, 2019

RLI will once again be a sponsor and present at the International Laser Safety Conference (ILSC^®), held this year from March 18-21, 2019, at the Embassy Suites^® Lake Buena Vista South in Kissimmee, Florida.

ILSC^® is a comprehensive four-day conference covering all aspects of laser safety practice and hazard control. The Practical Applications Seminars (PAS) complement the Scientific Sessions by exploring everyday scenarios that the LSO and MLSO may encounter. Professionals in all fields and applications will find ILSC^® a tremendous source for information and networking opportunities.

Look for us at our booth during the evening reception on March 19, 2013.

IEC TC76 Meeting in Sweden in September

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Technical Committee (TC) 76 will be meeting in Kista, Stockholm, Sweden from September 16 - 21, 2018.

The IEC is an international organization that establishes and publishes globally relevant safety standards and technical guidelines. Its standards apply to millions of devices and systems in over 70 countries around the world.

RLI president William Ertle is Secretary of IEC TC76 and will be attending, along with RLI consultants Tom Lieb, TC 76 Chair, and Jerome Dennis, TC 76 Vice-Chair. The safety of laser emissions from self-guided robots, including vehicles, are among the subjects to be discussed.

RLI also offers Online Industrial Laser Safety Courses and On-site Industrial Laser Safety Officer Courses that can be held at your facility.

Laser Barriers and Curtains

Ranging from standard freestanding units to custom curtain installations, RLI's Laz-R-Shroud barriers provide total protection against beams emitted and scattered from various laser sources. Laz-R-Shroud laser barriers are fabricated with tested materials that exhibit a high tolerance to incident laser beams of up to 300 W/cm² for exposures up to 100 seconds. Laz-R-Shroud protective laser barriers can be cleaned with mild soap and water.

RLI provides a complimentary barrier analysis tailored to your specifications with every quotation so you can be sure your barriers will do the job when it counts. We will supply testing data and rating information about the barrier material you plan to purchase. We provide our MSDS data sheet as well as a copy of our barrier labeling information. A 12"x12" material sample complete with label, seam, and stitching examples is also available upon request.

For more information regarding laser barriers and curtains, please contact George Gigous via email or by calling (800) 94-LASER.
