EASY-HAZ™ Laser Hazard Analysis Software - LSO Edition is compliant with the 2022 version of ANSI Z136.1 “Safe Use of Lasers” standard. It features an easy-to-use database for laser inventories and audits. EASY-HAZ™ Laser Hazard Analysis Software - LSO Edition is included with our LSO Classroom Courses.
Features of EASY-HAZ™ Laser Hazard Analysis Software - LSO Edition:
Continuous Wave, Single Pulse, and Repetitive Pulse calculations.
Continuous Wave input choices include average power and energy of exposure.
Single Pulse input choices include energy per pulse and peak power.
Repetitive pulse input choices include average power, peak power, and energy per pulse. Outputs include MPE per pulse for each of the three multiple pulse rules, energy per pulse, average power, peak power, and duty cycle.
Beam shapes include Circular Gaussian, Elliptical Gaussian, Elliptical Top Hat, and Rectangular Top Hat with choice of 1/e or 1/e² beam measurements.
Accepts input of M-Squared (beam quality factor) as beam parameter or calculates M² if diameter and divergence are entered. (Limits beam parameters to diffraction limit if desired.)
Comprehensive Diffuse Reflection calculations. Inputs include beam size on diffuse target, reflectivity, viewing angle, viewing distance, and a separate exposure duration for diffuse reflection exposures. Outputs include Point Source or Extended Source MPE, Point Source or Extended Source Diffuse Reflection NHZ, OD for diffuse viewing, and fraction of MPE if exposure is below MPE.
Other reported values include:
Optical Density of Eyewear at a specified intrabeam range, for expanded beams, and at a specified distance from a focusing lens or an optical fiber
Intrabeam Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD)
OD and intrabeam NOHD for optically aided viewing and atmospheric attenuation
Lens-On-Laser NOHD for all beam shapes on lens (1/e and 1/e²)
Fiber Optic NOHD for single mode and multimode fibers
Skin MPE and “Times Skin MPE” for intrabeam and diffuse exposures
Beam Dimensions at specified range
Average and Peak Irradiance in limiting aperture for eye exposures
Correction Factors, Time Parameters, Limiting Apertures, and Irradiance in limiting aperture
All on one page! All output values change when any input is changed.
Also includes:
Microsoft Word Laser Hazard Analysis Report page to document laser input parameters, laser hazard analysis output values, audit reports, and recommendations
Easy storage of input parameters and audit data as text files (e-mail files to other users)
Built-in database for easy management of hazard analysis records and laser inventories
Microsoft Excel Laser Inventory Report page for flexible laser inventory reports
Comprehensive Users Guide
