This European Standard applies to laser adjustment filters and eye-protectors. These are filters and eye-protectors for use in adjustment work on lasers and laser systems as defined in EN 60825-1:2007 where hazardous radiation occurs in the visible spectral range of 400 nm to 700 nm. Filters specified inThis European Standard reduceThis radiation to values defined for lasers of class 2 (<= 1 mW for CW (continuous wave) lasers).This European Standard defines the requirements, test methods and marking. A guide is given in Annex B with regard to selection and use. EN 207 applies to eye-protection against accidental exposure to laser radiation. NOTE Before selecting eye protection according toThis European Standard a risk assessment should first be undertaken (see Annex B).
