FR Recognition Number 12-248
Standard
ISO  21254-3 First edition 2011-07-15
Lasers and laser-related equipment - Test methods for laser-induced damage threshold - Part 3: Assurance of laser power (energy) handling capabilities
Scope/Abstract
This part of ISO 21254 specifies two methods of verifying the power density (energy density) handling capability of optical surfaces.

The first method provides a rigorous test that fulfils the requirements at a specified confidence level in the knowledge of potential defects.

The second method provides a simple, and hence inexpensive, test for an empirically derived test level.
