DR AS/NZS IEC 60825.4:2023 Safety of laser products, Part 4: Laser guards

The objective of this document is to specify the requirements for laser guards, permanent and temporary (for example, for service), that enclose the process zone of a laser processing machine, and specifications for proprietary laser guards. This document applies to all component parts of a guard including clear (visibly transmitting) screens and viewing windows, panels, laser curtains and walls. In addition, this document indicates:
(a) how to assess and specify the protective properties of a laser guard; and
(b) how to select a laser guard.

This document is identical with, and has been reproduced from, IEC 60825‑4:2022, Safety of laser products – Part 4: Laser guards.

DR AS/NZS ISO 19818.1:2023 Eye and face protection – Protection against laser radiation, Part 1: Requirements and test methods

The objective of this document is to apply to protectors intended to provide protection against accidental exposure to laser radiation within the wavelength range 180 nm to 1 mm. It specifies the requirements, test methods and marking.

Protectors intended for adjustment work on lasers are included in the scope of this document and are marked in the same way as other protectors, but selection of appropriate eyewear for a specific application is a choice of the user. Laser protective filters used as viewing windows in laser equipment machinery or incorporated into optical instruments such as operating microscopes and loupes that may be used for deliberate viewing of laser radiation as part of their function are outside the scope of this document.

Laser radiation in the wavelength range below 180 nm is absorbed in air, therefore eye and face protection should not be required.

This document is applicable to devices intended for patient protection during medical laser procedures except for treatment in the periorbital area. Guidance on eye protectors for patients (including those used for periorbital treatment) is given in ISO/TR 22463.

DR AS/NZS ISO 3452.1:2023 Non-destructive testing – Penetrant testing, Part 1: General principles

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee MT-007, Non-Destructive Testing of Metals and Materials, to supersede AS ISO 3452.1:2020.

The objective of this document is to specify a method of penetrant testing used to detect discontinuities, such as cracks, laps, folds, porosity and lack of fusion, which are open to the surface of the material to be tested using white light or UV-A (365 nm) radiation. Penetrant testing is mainly applied to metallic materials but can also be performed on other materials provided that they are inert to the test media and not excessively porous (castings, forgings, welds, ceramics, etc.).

This document also includes requirements for process and control testing but is not intended to be used for acceptance criteria. It gives neither information relating to the suitability of individual test systems for specific applications nor requirements for test equipment.

This document is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO 3452-1:2021, Non-destructive testing — Penetrant testing — Part 1: General principles.

This document covers the temperature range from 10 °C to 50 °C. Additional tests in AS ISO 3452.5:2020 or AS ISO 3452.6:2020 can be required outside this range.

This document is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO 3452‑2:2021, Non-destructive testing — Penetrant testing — Part 2: Testing of penetrant materials.
