Class 3B Laser Safety Guide

Warning

Class 3B Lasers have the potential to harm eyesight if viewed directly and can also be

harmful at long distances.

Any unit that contains a laser diode has to be classied depending upon the light output that

someone may be exposed to. All laser products are classed as dened in the

Laser Product Safety Standard (BS/EN 60825.1). The classes range from the safest, which is

Class 1, through to the most hazardous, which is Class 4. A laser diode that emits more than 5mW

of light and less than 500mW can be classied as a Class 3B product.

Operation and installation Notes

Laser effects should only be installed and operated by persons who have been trained in how to

operate laser effects safely.

Laser effects should be located in a safe and secure position in the venue, so that once installed it

cannot be tampered with by unauthorized users.

Before operation the path of the laser beams should be taken into account in respect to how the

beams will scan the viewing audience.

If direct audience scanning is to be used then the laser energy levels from the effects needs to be

calculated.

Health

If used responsibly and in accordance with the relevant guidance issued by the Health and Safety

Executive a laser effect will not present a hazard to those viewing the show as long as the laser

beams are projected over the heads of the viewing audience. When laser effects are directed into

the audience area it becomes difcult to tell if the effects are causing harm.

Class 3B laser beams can be harmful to eyesight if viewed directly The injury that a Class 3B

laser can inict is dependant upon several varients, including the amount of time the laser beam

enters the eye for, the intensity of beam and what part of the eye that actually receives the beam.

The part of the eye which is most susceptible to receive damage from the beam is the retina. The

retina is the part of the eye that receives the light signals that are sent to brain. All light entering

the eye gets focused onto the retina.

Normal light sources including halogen lamps are not usually harmful to view. Lasers are different

in the fact that they can get the beam focused down to a very small point on the retina which can

burn holes on the back wall of the eye. There are no pain receptors on the retina and the damage

can happen in less time than it takes for a person to blink so the person will be not be aware of

any damage taking place. Damage to the retina cannot be repaired and therefore is permanent.

Symptoms include severe loss of sight and unnoticeable vision loss.

Licensing and Laws

There are no U.K. “laser laws” or any “laser licenses” that need to be obtained in

order to own or operate a laser for lightshow use. Detailed and specic guidance is issued by the

Health and Safety Executive in the form of a book called HS(G)95 The Radiation Safety of Lasers

Used for Display Purposes.

Class 3B Laser Safety Features

Class 3B laser products need to be tted with specic safety features. These features are issued

in the British Standard on Laser Product Safety

BS/EN 60825-1 and are a needed for the product to meet CE approval.

The important warnings are listed below:-

1) Emissions Indicator

2) Remote Interlock Connector

3) Laser Safety Warning Labels

Summary of each Feature

Class 3B lasers need to contain three very importantLaser Safety Warning Labels; the starburst

symbol, aperture label, and the warning/classication label. The starburst is used to indicate that

the product is a laser product. The aperture label is located next to the appature to show where the

laser emits it’s beam(s). The warning/classication label details the class of the laser product, the

maximum output power, and the wavelength(s) (colours) of the laser, along with a

“Laser Radiation – Avoid Exposure To The Beam” warning

The Remote Interlock Connector will only allow the laser to function when the two pins are shorted

together. For lightshow use it is recommended by HS(G)95 laser safety guidance laser effects can

be overridden by a remote Emergency Stop switch. The remote interlock connector provides a

convenient way for such a switch to be easily added to the laser system, to provide this control.

The emissions indicator is tted to indicate when the laser is ready to produce a light output.

Audience Scanning

Audience Scanning is when laser beams are directed at the viewing audience. Because the laser

output beam can scan people’s faces it carries a risk that it could cause damage to eyesight, if

over exposed to the laser beam.

Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE)

The amount of laser light that a person can be exposed to without it causing harm

to eyesight is known as the Maximum Permissible Exposure or MPE. These levels

are set down by the British Laser Safety Standard BS/EN 60826-1. When people

are exposed to laser light output which is above the MPE, it may potentially pose a risk of

causing eye damage. Calculating what the MPE and exposure level is for a given laser effect is

quite a complicated process and it is dependant on a whole number of factors and conditions. The

laser safety standard BS/EN 60825-1 contains the information and data required to calculate these

levels.

Equinox Orion Laser Safety

Laser Safety Ofcer

The BS/EN60825-1 Laser Safety Standard recommends that all venues that use, or businesses

that work with Class 3B laser products, should appoint a Laser Safety Ofcer (LSO). The Laser

Safety Ofcer should be aware of the many safety issues when using lasers, and will also be

responsible for overseeing how the laser is used. In smaller businesses, the (LSO) could be the

installer, operator or owner etc.

Separation Distances

Health and Safety guidance details that for supervised installations of lasers which are above the

Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) should not be accessible to persons in the audience. Also

recommended is an area where the MPE may not be exceeded and extends from 3m above to

2.5m laterally from any point in the venue where the public may have access during the lightshow.

The illustrations below show the separation distances.

Separation Distance Drawing:

Equinox Orion Laser Safety

Note. The 3 metre height specied is not the height of the actual laser unit, but it

refers to the height of the laser beams emitted.

Hazard Distances

All lasers for display porposes feature a characteristic called the hazard distance for direct

viewing (NOHD). The (NOHD) is distance at which viewing the laser directly is no longer

considered a hazard. Note at any point between the laser unit and the calculated hazard distance,

it may be hazardous to directly view the laser beams. Exposing the eye to the laser directly from

outside the hazard distance is considered to be no longer a risk.

The most dangerous senerio is to look directly at a static single beam, because all the light energy

is concentrated into one small point. The hazard distances for various different powers of Class 3B

laser are shown in the table below.

Laser Output Power

Hazard Distance

Note - The above values in the table have been calculated assuming the characteristics of a

typical laser, which has a beam spread of 2mradians. Not all laser units have the same

specication.

Remember: Static laser beams are hazardous for long distances so it is recommended that the

laser beams are projected overhead and not into the viewing audience
