Underwater Laser Line
The Teledyne Bowtech OceanLASER-L is
housed in grade 5 titanium and is designed to operate in water depths up
to 6,000 m. The front port is manufactured from optical quality
sapphire glass.
The OceanLASER-L is a Class 2, 8 mW, line laser with uniform power distribution.
Laser Safety
Class 2
- Class 2 lasers are limited to a maximum output power of 1 milliwatt
or one-thousandth of a watt (abbreviated to mW) and the beam must have a
wavelength between 400 and 700 nm. A person receiving an eye exposure
from a Class 2 laser beam, either accidentally or as a result of someone
else’s deliberate action (misuse) will be protected from injury by
their own natural aversion response. This is a natural involuntary
response which causes the individual to blink and avert their head
thereby terminating the eye exposure. Repeated, deliberate exposure to
the laser beam may not be safe.
