Trust in the Safety of Emergency Services & the Population

(Human Safety)

Protection of emergency personnel, users and the population

Technical systems must not endanger emergency personnel, operating personnel and the environment — neither during training nor in operational situations.

Seibersdorf Laboratories specifically assesses the effects of technical systems on humans. 
 

Safety of Emergency Personnel & Population

Our Services

Analysis of EMF exposure of emergency personnel

Electromagnetic fields can pose a health hazard for operators. We analyse EMF exposure and assess it against applicable limits and safety requirements.

Dosimetric monitoring of emergency personnel

Another focus is the dosimetric monitoring of emergency personnel, which enables an individual assessment of radiation exposure.

LiDAR and Rangefinder System Testing

LiDAR and rangefinder systems are tested for safe use, particularly with regard to radiation, eye strain and interaction with people.

Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance (NOHD)

For optical systems such as lasers or target systems, we determine the NOHD to minimize risks to the eyes and health of personnel.

Use Case

Tritium Bulbs

Tritium-based lamps are frequently used in the military sector. If damaged, gaseous tritium can escape and endanger people and the environment.

Our Solution

We carry out leak tests on tritium-based lighting systems, assess possible contamination risks and provide assistance with legal issues and proper disposal.

Use Case

Complex Requirements for Laser Simulators and Rangefinders

Laser training simulators and LiDAR, as well as distance measurement devices (rangefinders) with their sometimes high powers and complex pulse patterns represent a major challenge for manufacturers, users and even procurement. The underlying standards for laser products, which must be met, are extensive and complex to use.

Our Solution

With measurement methods and evaluation software developed specifically for current standards, we provide practical information for manufacturers, buyers and users. You benefit from the fact that our experts are involved in the development of the relevant IEC 60825-1 and ANSI Z136.1 standards.

Use Case

Determining the Laser Hazard Area

For laser applications with higher powers, the possible use of binoculars must be considered, which significantly increases the nominal ocular hazard distance. This can also be several hundred meters.

Our Solution

We can also measure the danger zone for any distance in the laboratory. With our measurement method of beam transformation, we can reduce the necessary measurement distance.

Use Case

Invisible EMF Exposure Endangers Personnel

In deployment and training scenarios, soldiers often work in environments with high electromagnetic loads caused by radar, radio and electronic countermeasures. Without a clear risk assessment, health risks and the resulting legal consequences are possible.

Our Solution

Seibersdorf Laboratories carries out precise EMF exposure analyses, evaluates risks and develops protective measures for personnel. We combine measurements, simulations and scientific expertise to ensure safe operating conditions — in line with international standards.
