BS EN 207 discusses personal eye-protection equipment. BS EN 207 is a European standard that provides requirements and test methods for filters and eye-protectors against laser radiation.
BS EN 207 applies to eye-protectors used for protection against accidental exposure to laser radiation as defined in EN 60825-1:2007 in the spectral range 180 nm (0,18 micrometre) to 1000 micrometre. BS EN 207 defines the requirements, test methods, and marking.
BS EN 207 guides for the selection and use of laser eye-protectors and filters in appliances.
Note1: BS EN 207 does not apply to protectors for intentional exposure to laser radiation.
Note2: Before selecting eye protection according to BS EN 207, a risk assessment should first be undertaken.
BS EN 207 on filters and eye-protectors against laser radiation is useful for:
An eye protector is an article of personal protective equipment (PPE) that protects the eyes from various hazards, including harmful rays, intense light.
BS EN 207 provides you with requirements, spectral transmittance of filters and frames, luminous transmittance of filters the resistance of filters and frames to laser radiation, test methods, marking, and much more.
The requirements and test methods provided by BS EN 207 assist in improving the performance of filters and eye-protectors and ensure protection to the eyes of wearers from laser radiation hazards.
By adopting BS EN 207 you can enhance the efficacy of filters and eye protectors and manufacture a standardized product.
