Laser Safety
Laser safety in the United States is regulated by the Center for
Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). The laser safety
regulations are published in the “Laser Product Performance
Standard,” Code of Federal Regulation (CFR), Title 21,
Subchapter J.
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard 825,
“Radiation of Laser Products, Equipment Classification,
Requirements and User’s Guide,” governs laser products outside the
United States. Europe and member nations of the European Free
Trade Association fall under the jurisdiction of the Comité Européen
de Normalization Electrotechnique (CENELEC).
For the CDRH: the radiant power is detected through a 7 mm aperture
at a distance of 200mm from the source focused through a lens with
a focal length of 100 mm.
For IEC compliance: the radiant power is detected through a 7 mm
aperture at a distance of 100mm from the source focused through a
