EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 62471-4 testing. This standard IEC EN 62471-4 provides manufacturers, test centers, security personnel and others with practical guidance on methods of performing radiometric and spectroradiometric measurements to determine the accessible level of optical radiation emitted by lamps and lamp systems, as appropriate.
When the wavelength spectrum of the luminaires (white light or narrow-band radiation) is examined, it is observed that the luminaires can radiate in the pre-violet or infrared region, albeit in a very small amount. The light emitted in the indicated area is known to cause damage to the eye (on the cornea/retina) and skin.
LEDs used in lighting fixtures must be certified according to standards, especially that they do not cause photobiological damage to the eye and skin layer. According to IEC EN 62471, the European Union's standard in this regard, products radiating between 200nm and 3000nm must be subjected to the tests within the scope of this standard.
As lighting technology continues to develop rapidly, the demand for LED lighting products in international markets is also increasing, creating significant business opportunities for manufacturers. With these developments, before the manufacturers open to new export markets; First, they are expected to pay due attention to identify valid and mandatory product safety certification requirements for their target markets.
The safety requirement that the IEC/EN 62471 standard draws attention to; Photobiological hazards and exposure to ultraviolet wavelengths (100-400 mm) can be a concern for user health. Europe has published a standard to address these concerns arising from the implementation of the IEC EN 62471 standard. The USA and Canada continue to actively research and evaluate possible health effects.
