BS EN 14255-3:2008EN 14255-3:2008 (E) 5 Introduction People may be exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted
23、by artificial or natural sources. The most important natural source for UV-radiation exposure is the sun. Depending on global factors such as geographical position, season, time of day, altitude, cloudiness and individual factors such as clothing, the time spent outdoors may result in a significant
24、UV-exposure to the sun. Exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun is of considerable health concern. UV-exposure can produce both beneficial and harmful health effects. Vitamin D production is recognized as a beneficial effect. Acute harmful effects on the eyes and the skin can be induced by sh
25、ort term UV-irradiation of high intensity. Typical injuries are photoconjunctivitis and photokeratitis of the eye and UV-erythema of the skin. Minor doses of UV-radiation may induce or aggravate some diseases such as porphyria or lupus erythematosis or may trigger phototoxic and photoallergic reacti
26、ons. The visible and the infrared part of the radiation spectrum of the sun may also cause short term injuries, when overexposure occurs, such as thermal damage to the skin as well as thermal and photochemical injuries of the retina of the eyes. However, visible and infrared radiation exposures are
27、not dealt with in this standard. Additionally, long term UV-irradiation may result in damage to the eyes and skin, such as cataracts, skin aging and skin cancer. There is also increasing evidence that UV-exposure suppresses the immune system, which could lead to a reduction in the efficacy of immuni
28、zation programmes and increase the spread of infectious diseases. Between two and three million non-melanoma skin cancers are diagnosed worldwide each year which are rarely fatal and can be surgically removed; approximately 132,000 melanoma skin cancers occur globally each year. Melanoma is responsi
29、ble for approximately 80 % of an estimated 66,000 deaths annually due to skin cancer 1. Worldwide some 12 to 15 million people become blind from cataracts annually, of which up to 20% may be caused or aggravated by sun exposure, according to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO). These nu
30、mbers will increase as the stratospheric ozone layer is depleted over the next decades, unless people become aware of the hazards of UV-radiation exposure, especially from the sun 2. In order to avoid short term injuries and reduce additional risks from long term UV-exposures international recommend
31、ations advise restriction of solar UV-exposures 3. To achieve this, it is necessary to determine the level of solar UV-exposure and assess its gravity. Such determination can be achieved either by measurements or by estimations. This European Standard supports the application of recommendations of i
32、nternational or European organisations (e. g. WHO, ICNIRP1), EUROSKIN) for protection against harmful solar UV-exposure. This standard specifies procedures for the measurement or estimation and the assessment of solar UV-exposures. For radiation protection purposes it is not always necessary to dete
33、rmine exactly the personal solar UV-exposure. Often a more general determination of the solar UV-exposure level is sufficient. The UV-Index is one of the means for that. The UV-Index can describe the current measured, the expected daily maximum, or the expected daily trend of the erythemally effecti
34、ve irradiance. It is based on regional measurements or calculations of the global solar radiation. It is published by various organisations and in weather forecasts. It can be used to forecast the expected solar UV-exposure and to plan protective measures, if necessary. So it is a means to determine
35、 an approximate personal solar UV-exposure. As the UV-Index is usually determined for a larger regional area the local solar UV-exposure may deviate due to different cloud cover and other reasons. So the local and individual UV-exposure assessment has to be adjusted accordingly. 1) ICNIRP Internatio
36、nal Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation BS EN 14255-3:2008EN 14255-3:2008 (E) 6 A similar approach is the determination of the skin and ocular exposure factors 4, 5. It allows an approximate local solar UV-exposure estimation. As it is not based on measurements the uncertainty may be larger than an
37、 estimation based on the UV-Index. However this method does take local factors (cloud cover, albedo) and individual factors (clothing and protective measures) into account. For the planning of solar UV-radiation protection purposes when travelling, a calculation of the global solar radiation exposur
38、e depending on season, time of day, geographical position, etc. may be helpful. There are software programs which allow such calculations. In some cases it is necessary to determine the personal solar UV-exposure more exactly. This can be done by measurements of the erythemal and/or the non-melanoma
39、 skin cancer radiant exposure. These exposure data can be used to determine individual risks. Personal solar UV-exposures can in some cases also be determined by UV-exposure measurements according to EN 14255-1. The results can be compared to recommended or required limit values in order to assess t
40、he gravity of the exposure. When the solar UV-exposure exceeds a certain level it may be necessary to apply protective measures in order to avoid injuries of the skin and the eyes. This standard does not specify sun protection measures but gives corresponding reference sources. BS EN 14255-3:2008EN
41、14255-3:2008 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard specifies procedures for the measurement or estimation and the assessment of personal exposures to ultraviolet radiation emitted by the sun. NOTE 1 According to CIE 17.4 UV-radiation is defined as an electromagnetic radiation with wavelength between
42、100 nm and 400 nm. Due to atmospheric absorption only solar UV-radiation in the spectral region between 280 nm and 400 nm reaches the earths surface in significant amounts. This European Standard applies to solar UV-exposures when staying outdoors. This European Standard is applicable to workers and
43、 to the general population. This European Standard does not apply to UV-exposures caused by artificial sources, e.g. UV-lamps, welding arcs. NOTE 2 Part 1 of this European Standard deals with UV-exposures caused by artificial sources. NOTE 3 For radiation emissions of products other standards apply,
44、 such as CIE S 009 for lamps and lamp systems, EN 60335-2-27 6 for sunbeds, EN 60335-2-59 7 for insect killers and EN 12198 8 for radiation emissions of machinery. This European Standard does not apply to radiation exposures which concern the retina of the eyes. NOTE 4 Ultraviolet and visible radiat
45、ion exposures of the eyes may result in photochemical damage to the retina (this is often called the blue light hazard). The associated action spectrum contains mainly visible radiation and only a very small contribution in the ultraviolet region. The determination and assessment of radiation which
46、may result in a blue light hazard may be done in accordance with part 2 of EN 14255 20. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
