Illuminated Warning Signs

European Standard Illuminated Laser Warning SignsLed Laser Warning Signs

Reduce interruptions and downtime in your laser facility with accurate indication of laser status

All Class 3B and Class 4 lasers require interlocking to comply with standard laser safety practice. However, while this fulfills the safety requirements it can be annoying and even costly to have your laser shut down when an access door is opened. Such interruptions can be avoided either by using a locking interlock system (see Interlock section), or by providing accurate information regarding your laser status by the use of illuminated signs, or both.

Choose between Mains Powered Fluorescent Signs and Low Voltage LED Signs shown above.
