Description

With commonly used filter materials laser safety according to the standards is difficult to achieve due to the constantly increasing laser power and beam quality of modern disc and fibre lasers. In most cases common laser safety windows do not reach the protection rating required from excellent beam quality and power density of the used lasers.

The new patented active cabinet window solves this problem in an ideal and easy way by integration of the implemented elec-tronic into the safety circuit of the laser system. In case that a laser beam hits the window and a sufficient part of the radiation couples into sensor in the window frame, the laser will be shut-down immediately before radiation leaks from the back side of the window. In addition the system is totally insensitive against scattered and process light.

This offers the user a complete, safety (category T1) certified system, which is in accordance to mechanical engineering regulation. In combination with active barrier systems a safety solution for industrial high power laser installations in the wavelength range between 820-1100 nm is available from LASERVISION.
