Safe Use of Lasers Outdoors
Also Known As:
The LIA Z136.6:2015 standard is a comprehensive guide that provides safety guidelines for operating laser systems in open-air environments. It is an updated and modernized version of the ANSI Z136.6 standard, covering topics such as laser beam paths and the use of potentially hazardous lasers and laser systems ranging from 180 nm to 1 mm.
The standard is designed to be used alongside the ANSI Z136.1 standard, ensuring that outdoor laser applications adhere to the latest safety guidelines. The 2015 revision of the LIA Z136.6 standard aims to update, clarify, and streamline the existing standard to better address the needs of outdoor laser operators.
Notable changes in the 2015 edition include a single-column format for improved readability, color figures for ease of use, and metric unit standardization. There is also a new definition and expanded content for visual interference zones around airports and critical tasks. The standard also provides clarification on FAA coordination requirements and revises the laser hazard classification to include a comparison table between the 2000 and 2014 versions of ANSI Z136.1.
