What is a Class 1 laser enclosure?
An enclosure designed to turn a high-power Class 4 laser into a totally safe Class 1 laser system has to prevent access to the area where the laser beam intensity may be hazardous to eyes and skin. Interlocks can also be used to prevent the laser from shooting when such access panels or protective housings are removed.
How do you determine the classification of a laser?
Lasers are classified for safety purposes based on their potential for causing injury to humans’ eyes and skin. Most laser products are required by law to have a label listing the Class. It will be listed either in Arabic numerals (1 2, 3R, 3B, 4) or in Roman numerals (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IV).
