Question

classification of lasers​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are four main classes for visible-beam lasers: Class 2, Class 3R, Class 3B and Class 4. The first two are relatively safe for eye exposure; the last two are hazardous. The chart below shows that the eye injury hazard increases as the laser's power increases.

Laser Classes chart

Lasers are classified based on their potential for causing injury — especially eye damage, since the eye is most susceptible to excess laser light.

The detailed information given below is for laser light that is visible -- between 400 and 700 nanometers -- and for an unintentional exposure of less than 1/4 second. Consult other sources for classifications of infrared and ultraviolet lasers, or other visible-light exposure durations.
