Optoblok Optical Table Laser Guarding
Lasermet and NPL have produced this joint venture product, Optoblok, the latest safety equipment for use in optical laboratories.
Optoblok, the Optical Table Laser Guarding System is designed specifically to reduce the risk of stray laser beams being inadvertently directed at personnel in the laser optics laboratory. This new modular system fits neatly on to optical tables to provide a 300mm high wall. Optoblok's modular design enables areas of the table to be segregated
The system comprises of certified laser blocking walled panels, posts (to screw into the table) and channel posts which are either straight or right angled to connect the wall panels together.

Laser Blocking Sceens
CE Marked Laser-Blocking Screens
Portable laser blocking screens
To protect personnel from Class 4 and Class 3B lasers it is imperative to have comprehensive laser safety protection in place. Laser radiation must be prevented from escaping from labs and manufacturing facilities using certified equipment.
Also, facilities utilising Class 1 lasers which are Class 4 under service conditions may require free-standing screens to allow other work to continue safely in the same room during service.
Lasermet provide a range of free-standing laser-blocking screens which are designed for use as passive guards to enclose areas where Class 3B or Class 4 lasers are in use either to protect against accidental exposure to the laser beam or for long term blocking of laser radiation at lower power densities. All Lasermet laser-blocking screens are CE marked and certified to EN 60825-4 (Safety of Laser Products Part 4: Laser Guards).
The main types of certified laser blocking screens (all certified to IEC/BS EN 60825-4) are:-
- The LaserLightScreen - the latest, low-cost, floor-hugging, certified, laser blocking, wheeled screen
- The Standard Laser Blocking Screen - made using Lasermet’s specially developed laser blocking material
- The Flatfoot Laser Blocking Screen - designed to eliminate trip hazards
- The Heavy Duty Screen - for multi-kW lasers
All of the screens are portable and can be used as simple temporary installations or can be used on a semi-permanent or permanent basis as required.

I-Extract
Extraction systems - Extraction of laser welding fumes
I-Extract is Lasermet’s fume extraction system specifically designed for the extraction and filtration of gases and emissions created by lasers during laser welding, laser cutting and laser cladding processes.
Designed as an integrated part of Lasermet’s “Laser Castle” laser safety cabin, the I-Extract has ample power to extract the appropriate volume of emitted gases produced in the cabin.
The specific CFM (cubic feet per minute) figures are available for specific
cabins.
A powerful, three phase electric motor powers the extraction fan.
The overall enclosure is manufactured using galvanised sheet metal with a powder coated finish.
Filters One HEPA Filter (High-efficiency particulate arrestance) individually tested to EN1822:2009 H3, and two further filters tested to EN779:2012 Filter Class M6.

Audible Warning System
Audio Alert IP65 - for automatic announcements, warnings, information or instructions - suitable for outdoor use
The Audio Alert IP65 system, suitable for outdoor use, is a local public address system that audibly delivers a pre-programmed message when triggered. The message is heard from a speaker integrated into the compact unit, which is triggered by one of the following options.
Trigger options
1. PIR - passive infrared detector
2. Application of 6 to 24VDC
3. Programmed Timer
So, next time you want to automatically warn, instruct or inform someone in the vicinity, just decide on the message, which can be up to 40 seconds long, and the frequency of delivery and we can pre-program the device to your specification.
Two messages can be recorded and one these can be selected by a keyswitch.
