Calculating Laser System Hazards
-
Virtual (i.e. Zoom)
This highly requested course is now available to you from the comfort of your home as a live, web-based training option. Over the span of two and a half days, students will learn how the ANSI Z136.1 standard is used to quantify the hazard of a laser system. It will cover computing the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for various laser types, comparing actual laser exposure to the MPE, computing the Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD), determining the Optical Density (OD) required to protect from a laser system, and it will provide a general overview on how lasers are classified.
