2. General safety instructions
2.4. Hazards
WARNING
Laser generated air contaminants, even if respired in lowest concentra-
tions over long time or brought to skin contact,
can cause skin irritations, contact eczema, sickness, vomiting, cauteriza-
tion of the respiratory tract, nervous diseases, allergic reactions, spasms,
and cancer.
• To avoid injury, follow the control measures and safety guidelines
provided by the respective material safety datasheet, and those
established by your Laser Safety Officer (LSO), Radiation Safety
Officer (RSO), or safety department of your business or institution.
2.4.3. ULTRASHORT PULSE LASER GENERATED UV RADIATION
Under certain circumstances ultrashort pulse lasers can induce UV radiation
that is being emitted from the point where the material is being processed.
WARNING
UV radiation emitting from the processing point
can cause burns to the skin and skin cancer.
• To avoid injury, follow the control measures and safety guidelines
provided by the laser’s manufacturer, and those established by
your Laser Safety Officer (LSO), Radiation Safety Officer (RSO), or
safety department of your business or institution.
2.4.4. ULTRASHORT PULSE LASER GENERATED X-RAY
RADIATION
If the irradiance limit is exceeded during materials processing, ultrashort pulse
lasers can induce X-ray radiation that is being emitted from the point where
the material is being processed.
