22、ystems used for transmission of information 1 Scope This part of IEC 60825 provides requirements and specific guidance for the manufacture and safe use of laser products and systems used for point-to-point or point-to-multipoint free space optical data transmission. This standard only addresses the
23、open beam portion of the system. If portions of the equipment or system incorporate optical fibre that extends from the confinements of the enclosure(s), the manufacturing and safety requirements under IEC 60825-1 apply to those portions only. This standard does not apply to systems designed for pur
24、poses of transmitting optical power for applications such as material processing or medical treatment. This standard also does not apply to the use of systems in explosive atmospheres. Throughout this part of IEC 60825, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are included whenever the word “laser” is used. The
25、 objective of this part of IEC 60825 is to: provide information to protect people from potentially hazardous optical radiation produced by free space optical communication systems (FSOCS) by specifying engineering controls and requirements, administrative controls and work practices according to the
26、 degree of the hazard; specify requirements for manufacturing, installation, service and operating organisations in order to establish procedures and provide written information so that proper precautions can be adopted. Because of the nature of FSOCS, also known as optical wireless or free-air info
27、rmation transmission systems, care must be taken in their manufacture as well as their installation, operation, maintenance and service to assure the safe deployment and use of these systems. This standard places the responsibility for certain product safety requirements, as well as requirements for
28、 providing appropriate information on how to use these systems safely, on the manufacturer of the system and/or transmitters. It places the responsibility for the safe deployment and use of these systems on the installer and/or operating organisation. It places the responsibility for adherence to sa
29、fety instructions during installation and service operations on the installation and service organisations as appropriate, and during operation and maintenance functions on the operating organisation. It is recognised that the user of this standard may fall into one or more of the categories of manu
30、facturer, installer, service organisation and/or operating organisation as mentioned above. Any laser product is exempt from all further requirements of this part of IEC 60825 if classification by the manufacturer according to IEC 60825-1 shows that the emission level does not exceed the accessible
31、emission limit (AEL) of Class 1 under all conditions of operation, maintenance, service and failure, and it does not contain an embedded laser product.

32、erences, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

33、25-2, Safety of laser products Part 2: Safety of optical fibre communication systems 3 Terms and definitions 3.1 access level potential hazard at any accessible position associated with a free space optical communication system (FSOCS) installation NOTE 1 The access level is based on the level of op
34、tical radiation which could become accessible in reasonably foreseeable circumstances, e.g. walking into an open beam path. It is closely related to the laser classification procedure in IEC 60825-1. NOTE 2 Practically speaking, it takes two or more seconds to fully align an optical aid with a beam,
35、 (which might occur in an unrestricted location), and this delay is incorporated into the method for determining access level. 3.2 access level 1 level for which, under reasonably foreseeable circumstances, human access to laser radiation in excess of the accessible emission limits (AEL) of Class 1
36、for the applicable wavelengths and emission duration will not occur 3.3 access level 1M level for which, under reasonably foreseeable circumstances, human access to laser radiation in excess of the accessible emission limits (AEL) of Class 1M for the applicable wavelengths and emission duration will
37、 not occur NOTE If the applicable limit of access level 1M is larger than the limit of 3R and less than the limit of 3B, access level 1M is allocated. 3.4 access level 2 level for which, under reasonably foreseeable circumstances, human access to laser radiation in excess of the accessible emission
38、limits of Class 2 for the applicable wavelengths and emission duration will not occur 3.5 access level 2M level for which, under reasonably foreseeable circumstances, human access to laser radiation in excess of the accessible emission limits of Class 2M for the applicable wavelengths and emission d
