Description
Innovation from the Laser Safety Experts – Your Safety Starts Here
Lasermet’s Realtime Laser Safety Software (RTLSS) is an essential online tool for professionals working with lasers. This powerful software helps you quickly calculate critical laser safety parameters, ensuring compliance with international laser safety standards (IEC 60825-1). Whether you’re assessing laser exposure, determining safe working conditions, or selecting the appropriate laser protection for eyewear, this tool simplifies the process with accurate, real-time results.
RTLSS provides on-the-go access, making it convenient for quick assessments whether in the lab or in the field. This tool is designed to help users calculate important laser safety parameters, including:
Accurately assess safe exposure levels for both point and extended laser sources.
Perform tailored calculations for fibre optic lasers, addressing their specific safety requirements.
Evaluate potential hazards from indirect reflections to mitigate exposure risks.
Access pre-calculated values for quick reference, saving time on common assessments.
Laser Calculator Guide
Inside a calculator, you’ll find panels to manage saved laser calculations, set laser operation modes, select source types and etc. Each of the four calculators provides different input fields for specific laser scenarios. The CW Settings panel allows you to enter key laser parameters: Wavelength (nm), Exposure Duration (s), Laser Power (W), Beam Diameter (mm), Beam Divergence (mrad), and Distance to Target (m). A Remaining Calculations counter tracks your usage based on your plan.

Infographics – key to a better understanding
RTLSS offers clear, easy-to-understand graphics that visually explain key laser safety parameters. These include Beam Divergence, showing how laser beams spread; Limit Aperture, depicting the maximum allowed beam diameter for safe exposure; and Applicable Beam Area, which highlights the area of beam interaction for safety. It also shows Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD), the safe distance for eye exposure, and Effective Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (ENOHD), factoring in beam divergence. Additionally, Spectral Information outlines the laser’s wavelength range to ensure correct classification and safety.
Testimonials
