FR Recognition List Number 064 Date of Entry 05/26/2025 
FR Recognition Number 12-367
Standard
ISO  13695 Second edition 2024-11
Optics and photonics - Lasers and laser-related equipment - Test methods for the spectral characteristics of lasers
Scope/Abstract
This document specifies methods by which the spectral characteristics such as wavelength, bandwidth, spectral distribution and wavelength stability of a laser beam can be measured. This document is applicable to both continuous wave (cw) and pulsed laser beams. The dependence of the spectral characteristics of a laser on its operating conditions may also be important.
Extent of Recognition
Complete standard
Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies.
Transition Period
FDA recognition of ISO 13695:2004 [Rec# 12-115] will be superseded by recognition of ISO 13695 Second edition 2024-11 [Rec# 12-367]. FDA will accept declarations of conformity, in support of premarket submissions, to [Rec# 12-115] until July 2, 2028. After this transition period, declarations of conformity to [Rec# 12-115] will not be accepted.
