Advanced LIGO2 AdLIGO PSL Laser Safety Plan The laser safety is to be based on ANSI Z »No fundamental changes from Z to Z as far as calculation of the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) levels and the accessible emission limit (AEL) is concerned. With the advent of the 200 W laser, now is a good time to review our practices. »Are existing practices sufficient? Unwieldy? »What, if any, changes shall we make?

Advanced LIGO3 The Eye Why bother? »Eye injuries tend to be irreversible in nature. »Even low power beams can produce high intensity spots on the retina.

Advanced LIGO4 Terminology Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) »The maximum accessible emission level within a class of laser that human eye or skin may be exposed to. »For a Class 4 laser operating at 1064nm the AEL is 0.5 W. Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) »The level of exposure that can be thought of as the border line between safe and potentially harmful. The MPE depends on the wavelength and exposure duration. »Two MPEs apply: ocular and skin exposure MPE.

Advanced LIGO5 The Advanced LIGO Laser Assumed properties: »wavelength = 1064 nm »total power P = 200 W »output beam size w 0 = 150 – 200  m Also need to consider the output of the pump diodes: »wavelength p = 808 nm »total power P p = 315 W »output beam size w p = 1 mm For classification purposes: »200-W laser is an extended source »pump diodes are a small source

Advanced LIGO6 Power Levels At 1064 nm: »ocular AEL is 4.4 mW »skin exposure AEL is 96 mW At 808 nm: »ocular AEL is 118 mW »skin exposure AEL is 32 mW Dump all beams above the ocular MPE – mandatory.

Advanced LIGO7 Safety Eyewear Requirement The optical density (OD) of laser safety eyewear must bring the output power of the source down to the ocular MPE level. »minimum OD of +4.7 at 1064 nm »minimum OD of +5.7 at 808 nm

Advanced LIGO8 Suggested Plan Restricted access to diodes and laser. Use beam tubes. During installation, manipulation of objects in the high power beam path requires a person to scan the optical table during the activity. Use of phone or intercom link to coordinate activities between the diode enclosure and the laser enclosure (if any).
