22、IEV 845-01-03) NOTE There are no precise limits for the spectral range of visible radiation since they depend upon the amount of output power available and the responsivity of the observer. The lower limit is generally taken between 360 nm and 400 nm and the upper limit between 760 nm and 830 nm. d)
