Laser technology has revolutionized numerous industries, from medicine to manufacturing. However, it’s crucial to prioritize safety when working with lasers. Laser barriers play a vital role in protecting individuals and their surroundings from the potential hazards associated with laser radiation.Â
At Phillips Safety, we offer a range of high-quality laser barriers designed to provide reliable protection while offering the flexibility of repositioning as needed. Let’s explore the key factors to consider when choosing laser barriers to guarantee optimal safety.
When it comes to laser barriers, it’s essential to understand their specifications and classifications. Laser barriers are categorized based on their ability to attenuate laser radiation, which is denoted by optical density (OD). The higher the OD value, the more effectively the barrier blocks laser radiation. Additionally, laser barriers are rated according to the laser’s wavelength and power level, ensuring appropriate protection for specific laser applications.
Optical Density (OD): Determine the required OD level based on the laser’s wavelength and power. Consider the laser’s maximum output power and select a barrier that offers a sufficient OD rating to prevent laser radiation from passing through.
Material and Construction: Choose laser barriers made from high-quality materials that are specifically designed for laser safety. Look for barriers constructed with durable, non-reflective materials to minimize the risk of scattered laser radiation.
Size and Coverage: Assess the size of the area that needs protection. Laser barriers are available in various sizes and formats, including panels, curtains, windows, and enclosures. Ensure the chosen barrier adequately covers the intended workspace, blocking any potential laser radiation.
Viewing Conditions: If visibility into the laser workspace is required, opt for laser barriers with appropriate optical properties. Select barriers that maintain optical clarity while providing the necessary protection against laser radiation.
Compliance and Certification: Choose laser barriers that comply with relevant safety standards, such as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z136 series. Look for barriers that have been tested and certified by reputable organizations to ensure their effectiveness and reliability.
