Benchtop Raman Lasers (standalone operation) Some users prefer a fully modular Raman system for maximum flexibility, in which case we offer the benchtop lasers below for use with Wasatch Photonics spectrometers.

Laser Safety: It’s always important!

When you are using a Raman spectrometer with an integrated or standalone laser, it is extremely important to follow all recommended safety precautions. You should also complete your organization’s laser safety training course, or seek one out independently. At a minimum, any Raman system operator should:

1. 1. Know the output power level and excitation wavelengths of all lasers in operation
   2. Ensure that the laser path is closed before operating the excitation laser (i.e., all fibers are connected and/or a sampling chamber is attached)
   3. Do not handle the Raman probe or remove the sampling chamber cover with the laser turned on
   4. Ensure that everyone within line-of-sight to the laser (direct, reflected, or scattered) is wearing protective goggles rated for the appropriate wavelength(s) and optical density (OD)
