of interest to European standardization. In accordance with the ISO-lead mode of collaboration as
defined in the Vienna Agreement, consultation on this ISO/DIS has the same effect for CEN
members as would a CEN enquiry on a draft European Standard. Should this draft be accepted, a
final draft, established on the basis of comments received, will be submitted to a parallel two-month FDIS
vote in ISO and formal vote in CEN.
In accordance with the provisions of Council Resolution 15/1993 this document is circulated in
the English language only.
Conformément aux dispositions de la Résolution du Conseil 15/1993, ce document est distribué
en version anglaise seulement.
To expedite distribution, this document is circulated as received from the committee secretariat.
ISO Central Secretariat work of editing and text composition will be undertaken at publication
stage.
Pour accélérer la distribution, le présent document est distribué tel qu'il est parvenu du

Secrétariat central de l'ISO au stade de publication.
THIS DOCUMENT IS A DRAFT CIRCULATED FOR COMMENT AND APPROVAL. IT IS THEREFORE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND MAY NOT BE
REFERRED TO AS AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD UNTIL PUBLISHED AS SUCH.
IN ADDITION TO THEIR EVALUATION AS BEING ACCEPTABLE FOR INDUSTRIAL, TECHNOLOGICAL, COMMERCIAL AND USER PURPOSES, DRAFT
INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS MAY ON OCCASION HAVE TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE LIGHT OF THEIR POTENTIAL TO BECOME STANDARDS TO
WHICH REFERENCE MAY BE MADE IN NATIONAL REGULATIONS.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 21254-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 9,
Electro-optical systems and by Technical Committee CEN/TC 123, Lasers and photonics in collaboration.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11254-1:2000, ISO 11254-2:2001 and
ISO 11254-3:2006), which has been technically revised.
ISO 21254 consists of the following parts, under the general title Lasers and laser-related equipment — Test
methods for laser radiation-induced damage threshold:
Part 1: Definitions and general principles;
Part 2: Threshold determination;
Part 3: Assurance of laser power (energy) handling capabilities;
Part 4: Inspection, detection and measurement (Technical Report).

Introduction
This part of ISO 21254 describes a test procedure for assurance of power density (energy density) handling
capability of optical components, both coated and uncoated.
This part of ISO 21254 provides a test procedure for obtaining consistent measurement results, which may be
used for acceptance tests or may be compared between different testing laboratories.
This testing procedure is applicable to all combinations of different laser wavelength and pulse length
durations. Comparison of laser damage threshold data may be misleading unless the measurements have
been done at identical wavelengths and pulse lengths.

Lasers and laser-related equipment — Test methods for laser
radiation-induced damage threshold —
Part 3:
Assurance of laser power (energy) handling capabilities
1 Scope
This standard is part of ISO 21254 and specifies a procedure by providing two test methods for assurance of
the power density (energy density) handling capability of optical surfaces.
The first method provides a rigorous test that fulfils requirements at a specified confidence level in the
knowledge of potential defects.
The second method provides a simple test for an empirically derived test level, allowing an inexpensive test.

This standard provides a procedure that will give a high level of confidence to the power density (energy
density) handling capability of the component tested.
It may be used in a wide variety of applications, including: non-destructive inspection, witness sampling, lot
