Laser Hazard Classification Guide.

PB266497

Publication Date	1976
Personal Author	Sliney, D. H.; Marshall, W. J.; Del Valle, P. F.; Franks, J. K.; Lyon, T. L.
Page Count	214
Abstract	A laser compendium is presented, consisting of almost 2500 models available from over 175 manufacturers and distributors in the laser safety field, compiled to the technical specifications gathered from manufacturing data sheets. The lasers were classified according to manufacturers' specification and manufacturers data were confirmed by measuring a small sample of lasers and cross-checking the calibration of manufacturers' instrumentation. The listing of lasers and their hazard classification is expected to be used in the formulation of the OSHA standard for occupational exposure to laser radiation.
