Laser Safety Goggles 1080nm OD7+

Lasers are classified based on the potential hazards they pose, according to the EN 60825-1 standard. The highest hazard level is Class 4, which is the most dangerous and requires stringent safety measures. Users must be protected from both the direct beam and any diffuse reflections that may occur. Class 3B lasers also pose significant risks and require appropriate safety eyewear to shield users from the direct beam.

Lower classes, such as Class 3R, 2M, and 1M, still present safety concerns and should be evaluated individually to determine the necessary precautions. Each of these classifications may require different levels of protection based on their specific risks.

At Welding Supplies Direct, most lasers are classified as Class 4 when not used within an appropriate enclosure. Ensuring the correct safety measures are in place is crucial for preventing accidents and injuries. If you are unsure about the classification of your laser or the required safety measures, please reach out to us for expert advice and assistance.
