1.4.3 HD for fully enclosed projection systems
HD
Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface
unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to
be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD.
Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD
The projector is also suitable for rear projection applications; projecting a beam onto a defuse coated projection screen. As displayed
in image 1-3 two areas should be considered: the restricted enclosed projection area (RA) and the observation area (TH).

For this type of setup 3 different HD shall be considered:
• HD as discussed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 8 , relevant for intrabeam exposure.
• HD
re fl ection
: the distance that has to be kept restrictive related to the re fl ected light from the rear projection screen.
• HD
diffuse
: the relevant distance to be considered while observing the diffuse surface of the rear projection screen.
