What is one of the analyses that LHAZ can perform?

One of the analyses that LHAZ can perform is MPE/Laser Classification. This process involves determining the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) levels, which are critical for safeguarding individuals from potential hazards associated with laser use. MPE represents the highest level of laser radiation to which a person may be exposed without adverse effects, thus playing a vital role in both hazard assessment and compliance with safety standards.

In the context of laser safety, classification of lasers based on their potential hazards enables proper selection of control measures and protective equipment. This classification system categorizes lasers into different classes based on their power, wavelength, and ability to cause injury, which is essential for guiding safe operational procedures in environments where lasers are used. Understanding and applying MPE and classification ensures that appropriate safety protocols are developed and maintained, minimizing risks associated with laser exposure.
