The product fulfils the requirements of IEC 60825-1:2014 and EN 60825-1:2014+A11:2021.

Use of uncertainty of measurement for decisions on conformity (decision rule):

No decision rule is specified by the IEC standard, when comparing the measurement result with the
applicable limit according to the specification in that standard. The decisions on conformity are made
without applying the measurement uncertainty (“simple acceptance” decision rule, previously known as
“accuracy method”).

Information on uncertainty of measurement:


The uncertainties of measurement are calculated by the laboratory based on application of criteria given
by OD-5014 for test equipment and application of test methods, decision sheets and operational
procedures of IECEE.
IEC Guide 115 provides guidance on the application of measurement uncertainty principles and applying
the decision rule when reporting test results within IECEE scheme, noting that the reporting of the
measurement uncertainty for measurements is not necessary unless required by the test standard or
customer.
Calculations leading to the reported values are on file with the NCB and testing laboratory that conducted
the testing.

In Note 3 of 4.3 c), replace the following text:
“NOTE 3 A source is considered an extended source when the angular
subtense of the source is greater than αmin, where αmin = 1,5 mrad. Most
laser sources have an angular subtense α less than αmin, and appear as an
apparent “point source” (small source) when viewed from within the beam
(intra-beam viewing). Indeed a circular laser beam cannot be collimated to a
divergence less than 1,5 mrad if it is an extended source, thus any laser
where a beam divergence of 1,5 mrad or less is specified cannot be treated
as an extended source. For a small source, α is set to αmin = 1,5 mrad and
C6 = 1.”
with:
“NOTE 3 An apparent source is considered an extended source when the
angular subtense of the apparent source (i.e. the angular subtense of the
image of the source) is greater than αmin, where αmin = 1,5 mrad (note that
different accommodation states as well as different positions in the beam
have to be considered for the classification of extended sources). Most laser
sources have an angular subtense α less than αmin, and appear as an
apparent “point source” (small source) when viewed from within the beam
(intra-beam viewing). Indeed, if a laser beam is to qualify as an extended
source, it cannot be collimated to a divergence less than 1,5 mrad unless it is
astigmatic (i.e. could be collimated in one dimension only) or scanning. Thus
any non-scanning circularly symmetric laser beam, where a beam divergence
of 1,5 mrad or less is specified, cannot be treated as an extended source,
since accommodation to infinity for intrabeam viewing of such a source
produces a retinal image that subtends an angle of less than 1,5 mrad. Also,
more generally, any circular, non-scanning high quality Gaussian beam
(TEM00) with a beam quality factor M2 equal or close to unity is associated to
a small apparent source, as either the beam waist subtends an angular
subtense smaller than 1,5 mrad or the divergence is smaller than 1,5 mrad.
For a small source, α is set to αmin = 1,5 mrad and C6 = 1. See also
definitions 3.7, 3.10, 3.36, 3.42. A frequent mistake is to associate the beam
diameter, or the beam profile, at the laser aperture with the apparent source;
the laser aperture as such has no special distinctiveness that is related to the
apparent source. Examples of designs that might constitute an extended
source are: transmissions through a diffusor, transmissions through a
diffractive optical element (DOE), partially coherent beams (i.e. beams with
low beam quality and therefore higher values of the beam quality factor M2),
scanned emission, fibres, and astigmatic beams (since the eye cannot
accommodate to both waists at the same time). Measurements of the image
of the apparent source are expected to be performed with sufficient accuracy,
typically with a laser beam profiler CCD camera. As an alternative to
characterizing the angular subtense of the apparent source (note that different
accommodation states are expected to be considered, as well as different
positions in the beam, see 5.4.3), C6 can be set to unity (simplified evaluation,
see 5.4.2).”

ZB.2.4 Subclause 4.3 f) 3); determination of α N/A
The parameter αmax is a function of emission duration, i.e. αmax(t). For an
analysis of pulsed emission and extended sources, αmax(t) limits both the
value of α for the determination of C6(α) as well as the angle of acceptance γ
for the determination of the accessible emission (see 4.3 c) and d) and
subclause ZB.2.3 of this amendment). In this process, αmax(t) is determined
for the same emission duration t that is used to determine AEL(t) (i.e. the
pulse duration or the pulse group duration for 4.3 f) 3) and the averaging
duration for 4.3 f) 2), respectively).
However, the parameter α is also used in 4.3 f) 3) in the criteria to determine
which C5 is applied to AELs.p.train(t). For these criteria to determine C5, the
parameter α is not limited to αmax(t) in the same way as for the determination
of C6 according to 4.3 d).
To determine T2(α) and in the criteria of 4.3 f) 3) “For α ≤ 5 mrad”, “For 5
mrad < α ≤ αmax”, and, “For α > αmax”, the quantity α is equal to the “long-
term” α, i.e. equal to α as determined for a time base of 0,25 s or equal to the
value of α of T2(α). In the determination of this “long-term” α (applying the
method specified in 4.3 d)), αmax = 100 mrad. That is, for T2 and these
inequalities, α is not limited to a value of αmax(t) smaller than 100 mrad, and
is therefore the same as the value that applies for the determination of C6 for
the time base of 0,25 s or 100 s, as applicable.
As is generally defined (see 4.3 d)) the arithmetic mean is applied to
determine α, i.e. it is not necessary that both dimensions satisfy the
criterion ”For α ≤ 5 mrad” independently.
For the criterion “Unless α > 100 mrad”, the angular subtense of the apparent
source α is not restricted by αmax. For non-uniform (oblong, rectangular, or
linear) sources, the inequality needs to be satisfied by both angular
dimensions of the source in order for C5 = 1 to apply. The value of α
determined with αmax = 100 mrad (i.e. the “long-term” α) can also be used for
this criterion, alternatively: in this case the criterion is written as “Unless α =
100 mrad”, because for α to become exactly equal to 100 mrad, when
applying αmax = 100 mrad, the image of the apparent source has to be larger
than 100 mrad in both dimensions.
Since the “long-term” α is needed for the inequalities in 4.3 f) 3) to determine
the applicable C5, the usual sequence is as follows.
An analysis of the image of the apparent source is performed as given in 4.3
d) while either using AEL(t = 0,25 s), or AEL(t = T2(α)), depending on the time
base. The angle of acceptance (as dimensions of the field of view) is varied
between 1,5 mrad and 100 mrad in each dimension. Each field of view is
associated to a certain value of T2 and therefore AEL(t = T2). The accessible
emission is also determined for the respective field of view. The result of the
process to vary the field of view is the “long-term” α that is associated to the
field of view that produces the maximum ratio of AE to AEL. For the case of
classification as Class 1, this process to determine the “long-term” α at the
same time determines the value of T2(α). This “long-term” α is used for C6 for
AEL(t = 0,25 s), or AEL(t = T2(α)), respectively, as well as the associated field
of view to determine the AE for the comparison with these AEL.
Following this step of the determination of the “long-term” α, all applicable
shorter emission durations have to be analysed. For the analysis of emission
durations less than 0,25 s, the “long-term” α is used to determine the
appropriate C5 in the equalities of 4.3 f) 3). T2(α) is also relevant for the
determination of N within T2(α) or the time base, whichever is shorter.

ZB.2.5 Subclause 4.3 f) 3); groups of pulses with group duration longer than Ti N/A
For non-uniform repetitive pulse patterns, i.e. groups of pulses (see Figure
ZB.2 for an example), when α > 5 mrad and the duration of the group of
pulses is longer than Ti, it is not clearly stated how the thermal additivity
expressed by requirement 3) of 4.3 f) is applied. For uniform (i.e. constant
peak power, duration and period) repetitive pulse trains, it is not necessary to
analyse the emission patterns in terms of groupings of pulses.
When individual pulses are close together, they are thermally grouped and
thermally represent one “effective” pulse so that C5 also (additionally to
analysing the pulse train based on the actual pulses and the average power)
applies to these “effective” pulses, where N is the number of pulse groups
within T2 or within the time base, whichever is shorter.

Figure ZB.2 — Example of three groups of pulses (each group duration


is longer than Ti) where each group is considered as one “effective”
pulse and C5 is applied to the AEL that applies to the group duration,
where C5 is determined with the number of pulse groups within the
evaluation duration (in the example of the figure N = 3)
For the analysis of pulse groups, the value of AELsingle is determined for the N/A
corresponding pulse group duration tgroup. For the determination of C5, N is
the number of pulse groups within T2 or the time base, whichever is shorter.
The respective value of C5 is applied to AELsingle to obtain AELs.p.train that
limits the AE of the pulse groups, where AE is the sum of the energy of the
pulses contained within the pulse group.

For the application of C5 to groups of pulses, the AEL(tgroup) applicable to N/A
the group needs to be determined, as well as the energy per group
(AEgroup).

For groups of pulses where the peak power of the pulses within the group
varies, the group duration is not well defined. In order to simplify the
evaluation, tgroup can be set equal to the integration duration for which the
energy per group (i.e. AEgroup) was determined; it is not necessary to
determine the group duration based on the FWHM criterion, which for groups
of pulses with varying peak power is not well defined. By setting tgroup equal
to the integration duration that is used to determine AEgroup (expressed as
energy), the application of C5 to groups of pulses is a simple extension of
requirement 2) of 4.3. f) where the average power per group (equal to the
energy within the averaging duration taverage divided by the averaging
duration) needs to be below the AEL(taverage) determined for the duration
over which the power was averaged (AEgroup and AEL(tgroup) expressed as
power). As is common for the average power requirement, for irregular pulse
trains, the averaging duration window (when expressed as energy: the
integration duration window) has to be varied in temporal position and
duration (for instance, if there are pulses with relatively low energy per pulse
at the beginning or the end of the group of pulses, integration durations that
exclude those low-energy pulses need to be considered also, not only the
total group).

Clause Requirement + Test Result - Remark Verdict
If individual pulses have sufficient temporal spacing (period larger than Tcrit, N/A
see below), as a simplified analysis, they need not be considered for an
analysis as a pulse group under 4.3 f) 3). The temporal spacing that is
necessary for pulses to only be considered separate (and not analysed
additionally as a group) depends on the angular subtense of the apparent
source and the duration of the pulses tpulse within the group. Note that there
can be several levels of grouping, so that individual elements (with pulse
duration t) within the group could themselves be “effective pulses”, i.e.
subgroups.

When the
— pulse group durations (tgroup) are between Ti and 0,25 s, and
— the angular subtense of the apparent source is larger than 5 mrad, and
— the period of the pulses (see Figure ZB.2) is shorter than a critical period
Tcrit (if tpulse < Ti, the value of tpulse is set equal to Ti; further, for the
determination of Tcrit, αmax is determined for tpulse, not the group duration)
where:
for α ≤ αmax: Tcrit = 2 ∙tpulse where tpulse is in seconds
for α > αmax: Tcrit = 0,01 α ∙tpulse0,5 where tpulse is in seconds, and α is in
mrad, not being limited to αmax

then these pulses constitute a pulse group which is treated as effective pulses
and C5 (where N is the number of groups within the time base or T2,
whichever is shorter) is applied to the AEL applicable to the pulse group. For
the determination of AE, αmax is determined using the duration of the
evaluated pulse group, tgroup. If one or more of the above conditions are not
fulfilled, then the pulses within the group of pulses that is considered to be
analysed as “effective pulse” need not be grouped, i.e. the group of pulses
does not need to be analysed as one “effective” pulse.
Note that if multiple pulses occur within Ti, the rule as stated in 4.3 f) 3)
applies in parallel, i.e. they are counted as a single pulse to determine N and
the energies of the individual pulses that occur within Ti are added to be
compared to the AELs.p.train of Ti where the corresponding C5 for emission
durations t ≤ Ti is applied.
ZB.2.6 Subclause 4.3 f); simplifications N/A
a) Constant peak power but shorter pulses N/A
Depending on the angular subtense of the
apparent source, it can be the case that the
value of C5 is more restrictive for pulses with
pulse durations less than Ti than for pulses with
durations longer than Ti which is against
general biophysical principles for cases where
the peak power is the same.

b) Larger image of apparent source N/A
For emission durations exceeding Ti, due to the
step-function of C5 at 5 mrad and at αmax, the
AEL (as a function of C5 and C6) can be more
restrictive for larger values of the angular
subtense of the apparent source as compared
to smaller ones, which is contrary to general
biophysical principles.
c) Using a square aperture stop N/A
In some cases, such as 2D scanned laser
beams, the use of a circular aperture stop to
determine the accessible emission creates very
complex pulse patterns. Due to the breakpoints
in terms of pulse duration with step functions in
the value of C5, it might not be apparent that
the usage of a square aperture is acceptable as
a simplified worst case analysis.
d) Applicability of simplified default analysis N/A
For pulse durations longer than Ti, the value of
C5 is smaller (more restrictive) for angular
subtense values α larger than 5 mrad
compared to α ≤ 5 mrad. The assumption of α =
1,5 mrad is the basis of the simplified (default)
evaluation. It is therefore not obvious if the
simplified (default) analysis still applies in terms
of being a restrictive simplifying analysis even
for the case that the angular subtense of the
apparent source is actually larger than 5 mrad,
where C5 < 1.
e) Determination of the most restrictive position N/A
For the extended analysis, it is necessary to
vary the distance relative to the reference point
to determine the most restrictive position. For
each position in the beam, the accommodation
is varied and the most restrictive image is
determined. For determining the most
restrictive image (where the ratio AE/AEL is
maximum) at a given position, requirement 3)
of 4.3 f) is not applied. Otherwise a blurred
(larger) image of the apparent source, resulting
from variation of the accommodation, could
appear more restrictive, which is contrary to
general biophysical principles. Once the most
restrictive image (and associated α) is identified
for each position in the beam, all three
requirements of 4.3 f) are applied to determine
the most restrictive position (identifying the
position with the maximum ratio of AE/AEL)
and the class of the product.

f) Application of the total-on-time-pulse method; N/A
For regular pulse trains, as well as for varying
pulse durations and/or varying period of pulses
(but excluding strongly varying peak powers;
see below), the total-on-time pulse (TOTP)
method (see also IEC 60825-1 Edition 2.0
subclause 8.3 f) 3b)) may be used as an
alternative to requirement 3) of 4.3 f), i.e. as an
alternative to the application of C5 to the single
pulse AEL, provided that αmax is determined
for the TOTP (or using the worst case value of
100 mrad). This is more restrictive than the
rules of 4.3 f) because it is equivalent to an
unlimited C5 (C5 not limited to 0,2 or 0,4), and
because the value of αmax is typically larger for
the TOTP as compared to the value applicable
to the single pulse.
For the total-on-time-pulse (TOTP) method the
following applies, as reproduced from Edition 2
of IEC 60825-1:
The AEL is determined by the value of the
TOTP, which is the sum of all pulse durations
within the emission duration or T2, whichever is
smaller. Pulses with durations shorter than Ti
are assigned pulse durations of Ti. If two or
more pulses occur within a duration of Ti these
pulse groups are assigned pulse durations of
Ti. For comparison with the AEL for the
corresponding duration, all individual pulse
energies are added.
Note that the TOTP method in Edition 2 of IEC
60825-1 (incl. Corrigendum 1) was specified
“For varying pulse widths or varying pulse
intervals“ and did not refer to varying peak
powers. For the case of strongly varying peak
powers, the TOTP method is not applicable, as
adding pulses to the pulse train with small peak
powers and low contributing energy-per-pulse
values might increase the AEL (by increasing
the total-on-time) more than this increases the
total energy, and thus would make the emission
less critical as compared to an emission based
on the pulses with the large peak power only.

g) Varying peak power but constant pulse N/A
duration
For varying peak power but constant pulse
durations, requirement 3) of 4.3 f) can be
applied by counting the pulses for the
determination of N based on the relative peak
power, i.e. N is increased by 1,0 for each pulse
with the maximum peak power, and by a value
of less than 1,0 for pulses with lower peak
power, such as for a pulse with 70 % peak
power compared to the maximum peak power
in the pulse train, N is increased by 0,7. For
this, based on the strong nonlinearity of
thermally induced injury with temperature, it is
justified not to count pulses with peak powers
that are more than a factor of 10 below the
pulse with the maximum peak power (i.e. less
than 10 % of the maximum peak power). Note
that the resulting AELs.p.train is applied to the
pulse with the largest AE, i.e. the largest
energy per pulse, and that the interpretation in
this paragraph applies only for the case of
pulse trains with constant pulse durations.

replacement (IEC 60825-1:2014/ISH2:2017)
This subclause ZB.3 contains the text of IEC N/A
60825-1:2014/ISH2:2017 with some minor
modifications for clarity.
Subclause 4.4 introduces a criterion based on
radiance, which is a quantity not normally
determined for laser products. This
interpretation clarifies the determination of
radiance and the radiance limit.
In this subclause ZB.3 of the Annex ZB,
Subclause 4.4 is clarified.

ZB.4 Subclause 6.3.2 – safety interlocks N/A
Introduction
In this subclause, additional interpretations are provided, that were not
contained in the IEC Interpretation Sheets, due to limitations on the length of
the Interpretation Sheets.
The requirements for safety interlocks that are provided with a deliberate
override mechanism are specified in 6.3.2. The exception, described in 6.3.2
for automatically returning an overridden interlock to normal operation when
an open door is closed, needs clarification. The portion of text that may cause
confusion is:
“If a deliberate override mechanism is provided, the manufacturer shall also
provide adequate instructions about safe methods of working. It shall not be
possible to leave the override in operation when the access panel is returned
to its normal position. An exception to this requirement is allowed if selection
of a service “override” mode automatically isolates the laser beam and
prevents automatic resumption of operation of the machine. This exception
also requires a lockable mode selector and requires a manual override to use
the beam.”
