UL 61010A-2-010-2002 UL Standard for Safety Electrical Equipment for Laboratory Use; Part 2: Particular Requirements for Laboratory Equipment for the Heating of Materials (First Edition)
Equipment included in scope?This part of IEC 61010 specifies general safety requirements for electrical equipment intended for professional@ industrial process@ and educational use@ any of which may incorporate computing devices@ as defined in a) to d) below@ when used under the environmental conditions of 1.4. a) Electrical test and measurement equipmentThis Part 2 applies only to electrical powered laboratory equipment for the heating of materials@ where the heating of materials is the only function or is one of several functions of the equipment.NOTE This equipment is likely to be installed adjacent to and interconnected with industrial machinery in this application.b) Electrical control equipment This is equipment which controls one or more output quantities to specific values@ with each value determined by manual setting@ by local or remote programming@ or by one or more input variables. c) Electrical laboratory equipment This is equipment which measures@ indicates@ monitors or analyses substances@ or is used to prepare materials@ and includes in vitro diagnostic (IVD) equipment This equipment may also be used in areas other than laboratories@ for example self-test IVD equipment may be used in the home. d) Accessories intended for use with the above (for example@ sample handling equipment).Equipment excluded from scope This standard does not apply to equipment within the scope of a) IEC 60065 (Safety requirements for audio@ video and similar electronic apparatus); b) IEC 60204 (Controls for electrical machines); c) IEC 60335 (Safety of household and similar electrical appliances); d) IEC 60364 (Electrical installations of buildings); e) IEC 60439-1 (Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies); f) IEC 60521 (Class 0@5; 1 and 2 alternating current watthour meters); g) IEC 60601 (Medical electrical equipment); h) IEC 60950 (Safety of information technology equipment including electrical business equipment@ except as specified in 1.1.3); i) IEC 61558 (Power transformers@ power supply units and similar). - equipment for the heating and ventilation of laboratories; - sterilizing equipment; - heating equipment which the OPERATOR is intended to enter@ and which is large enough for the OPERATOR to remain inside with the door or doors closed.Computing equipment This standard applies only to computers@ processors@ etc. which form part of equipment within the scope of this standard or are designed for use exclusively with the equipment. This standard applies to equipment to be employed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70@ National Electrical Code? (NEC); designed to be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC)@ Part I@ CSA C22.1@ and CSA C22.2 No. 0; or designed to comply with both the NEC and CEC.NOTE Computing devices and similar equipment within the scope of IEC 60950 and conforming to its requirements are considered to be suitable for use with equipment within the scope of this standard. However@ some of the requirements of IEC 60950 for resistance to moisture and liquids are less stringent than those in this standard. If HAZARDS from moisture or liquids could affect equipment that conforms to IEC 60950 and is used with equipment which conforms with this standard@ the instructions for use should specify any additional precautions required.
