1.2.2.2 Specific danger
Backlight
The part feeder has an integrated Backlight that uses LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes).
These LEDs emit visible or non-visible radiation depending on the color of the
Backlight. LEDs illumination can create discomfort, cornea, retinal and lens damage.
Figure 1-1: Specific warnings
The LEDs used are class 0 according to the norm EN 62471. It is the responsibility of
customers to document their own application and instruct employees on procedures to limit
exposure to LED radiation. The following prevention agent can be suggested:
A Install, insofar as the job allows, a high pass filter at x nm (refer to Appendix: Condition
of use of backlight) depending on the color under a fixed or adjustable connection
between the source and the employee.
B When the implementation of the foregoing is not possible, provide workers with goggles
or face shield suitable for blocking radiation beyond 700nm.
C Prohibit or limit as much as possible direct access to the source (exposure in the axis of
radiation). Refer to “CONDITIONS OF USE OF PRODUCTS TPL VISION” in
Appendix: Condition of use of backlight.
