Individual Protection Devices (I.P.D.)
Before using the laser system, the Operator must be instructed on the risks involved with
using the laser system and the necessity of wearing protective goggles during all operations
which require accessing the radiation.
The Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD) for the Megalight™ is equal to approximately
15m in the case of direct or reflected radiation and 0.5m in the case of scattered radiation.
Warning: the goggles are not sufficient for protecting the eye from direct laser radiation.
Before using the laser system, the Operator must be instructed on the risks associated with
using the device primarily resulting from the possibility of igniting flammable material, when
hit by laser radiation, such as volatile substances, resins or plastics.
The interaction of the laser beam with organic or inorganic compounds causes the formation of
fumes and vapours, which may be harmful or toxic.
N.B.: Make sure the personnel assigned to using the System have read this manual and the
Laser Safety Manual before using the engraving system.
