Laser area
For the purposes of accident prevention, the laser area refers to the area in which the maximum
permitted radiation value can be exceeded. Laser systems must be assigned and marked according to
their laser class and use.
X2 -0 10.1
With a corresponding beam intensity, the laser area is defined by the total radiation angle of the
deflection unit and by the reflection of all objects that can be irradiated by it. It is important to note
that, in addition to reflective surfaces, matt and dark surfaces can also reflect laser radiation and that a
laser beam reflected several times can still be dangerous. In addition, the deflection unit can be
destroyed by back reflection.
X2- 010. 2
The laser area must have permanently and legibly attached markings in accordance with
DIN EN 60825-1. Laser systems must be fitted with the protective mechanisms required for safe
operation according to their class and use.
X2 -010 .3
No combustible or explosive objects and liquids may be located in the laser area, as the energy of the
laser beam can ignite them.
